Against big government when it suits, I see. Hypocrisy is the worst disease in politics.
- claytongulick 3y agoSuccumbing to the temptation of expediency to achieve one's ideology is indeed a plague that affects all of politics. Dismissing critical thought, first order reasoning, and "the ends justify the means" short-term focus has brought our country once again to the brink of civil unrest. Unfortunately, it's a phenomenon that's not limited to any particular political party.

I expect that the 18 states opposing strengthening medical privacy are the same 18 states whose AGs filed these motions.
