Healthcare Disinvestment

What did you talk about in your Anger Management Class today, dear Yang? Crisis survival skills. As opposed to opportunity optimization skills, I would guess? I suppose so. Like when someone is screaming and threatening to remove your health insured head it might be a good idea to just take off your clothes and walk away. Or, the next time my elected government officials get together to debate how quickly we can further dismantle my health care as a right of humane residency on planet Earth, I might distract myself by banging my head against the nearest wall or table top. Oh, that sounds not at all like our discussion today in my Conflict Resolution Class. Well, dearest Yin, that's probably because conflict resolution is about opportunities for health-thrival skills; not pathological crisis survival. We operate on more of a two to six year short-term re-election for more bicameral head-banging timeline. So, what's your big take-away from your world of conflict resolution and healthy diplomacy today? We're working on mindful listening skills right now. Such as...? Like when someone is screaming at you about how we can't afford to provide care for people like you who have the nerve to choose to be poor, and sick, and reside in the United States, all at the same really inconvenient pre-existing conditions time, then we should listen for what we can agree with, or at least might agree with for now, and set aside the head banger statements that drive us insane for their lack of Earth-centric mindfulness. You mean selfishness. We could go with that word if you prefer, dear Yang, at least for now. Good, so I need not bang my head about your codependent nurturing ways, nor just walk away in naked disgust? No, baby, if you need to take off your clothes I could do the same and then we could show and tell our way through more advanced mutual care-giving skills and healthier, more regenerative, co-mindfulness. Why does your seductive version of conflict resolution always end with getting naked together? Because, unlike your anger management skills, it's not the way I would choose to start in response to all that screaming and fist shaking about being both nakedly poor and vulnerably sick during the Republican AntiPoverty Nationalist Reform Movement. By Reform you mean Decapitation, right? If you prefer that word, I could not live without it right now, dear Yang.
