I haven't seen Tucker's face in almost a year and it's still the most punchable face I've ever wanted to punch.

Abbott's not punchable, but you sometimes you'd like to roll him out into traffic.

Last week, there was a guest editorial column in al.com that, for me anyway, shed some light on why the anti-vaxxers are so persistent. Bottom Line: Money.

The column was written by a woman who is working to educate the public on the benefits of vaccines. She attended an anti-vax seminar to better understand the opposing view. Which in my mind is highly admirable in a time where way too many just throw hyperbolic insults at people who disagree with them -- Nazi, Taliban, you name it.

Here's a link to the full column:
What a vaccine advocate learned at an anti-vaccine seminar - al.com

Here's an excerpt from the column that was most instructional for me. I added the bold. Otherwise, it's a straight copy-and-paste:

"I have heard every claim, myth, conspiracy theory, and outright lie that the anti-vaccine industry has put out. And yes, it is an industry. The major players are getting wealthy off everything from ads on their websites, selling supplements, DVDs, books, promotional merchandise, expensive seminars, fees for speaking engagements and large salaries from their nonprofits.​

​

Some have even opened GoFundMe accounts and unabashedly ask for money for their personal expenses.​

​

Because it is lucrative, they are continually putting out new information online. They can be very convincing and are often nearly impossible to fact-check."​

In All the President's Men, it was Deep Throat's line. During my time in banking, any time I couldn't understand why someone would do whatever it was they were doing, I looked to incentive plans.

Follow the money.

the gop/conservative movement has been a large grift for decades. it probably started well before amway, but it's been going strong since at least the late '70s

If we are at war with the virus that makes them war profiteers. Collaborating to prolong the virus for personal profit.

Crisis standard of care is official reality in another state (along with Idaho). Of course, when a man can't get into 43 hospitals and dies of a heart attack does it matter if it's official or not?

Doctors say Providence Alaska Medical Center is so overwhelmed by COVID-19 they can no longer treat patients in a timely manner and now need to ration care.
