Elitist Straz’ TGH Tenure Proves He Protects the One Percenters, Not You

During the last 15 years or so, there has been a gradual erosion of pay and benefits at Tampa General Hospital (TGH), most acutely felt by the longest tenured employees, who also happen to be the most experienced and most highly skilled. Meanwhile, at the top of the TGH food chain, the story is quite different with ballooning benefits for principal administrators. The large payouts for executives coupled with the shrinking benefits of the average worker coincide with the tenure of stiff neck David Straz, Tampa mayoral candidate, on THe board of directors.

Words From Layla Hartz

For those of you who know me, you know that my father is from Iran and that we have a lot of family who live there. Which is why today is a terrifying day.

It’s no secret who John Bolton is and what is his ultimate goal in life. Cancelling the Iran deal is both astronomically stupid, but it also points to ambitions of war on the part of Trump and Netanyahu (and Saudi Arabia).

Today reminds me of 2002. Then, I wrote an article in the Daily Joklahoman outlining what a mistake invading Iraq was. I was met with retorts ranging from how unpatriotic I was to racist (get out of my country) responses. 

I was right.
I’m right today as well.
Trump is a menace to peace around the world.

Democratic Party Heading Toward a Pyrrhic Victory

By supporting corporate-friendly candidates and policies, Congressional Democratic leaders are moving closer and closer toward open warfare with their party’s base.

-----

A majority of Democratic voters, led by black, brown, and female Democrats, told pollsters in a recent study that they supported “movements within the Democratic Party to take it even further to the left and oppose the current Democratic leaders.”  A new study by Data For Progress shows that “the Democratic Party’s base has moved left” and that voters overall “are ready for unabashed progressive politicians.”

-----

And yet, as if determined to block their own party’s progress, House Democratic operatives have been attacking progressive candidates in public and working to undermine them in private. here

Rick Scott's Florida 48th out of 51

The Commonwealth Fund, a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation dedicated to expanding access to health care, released its annual report for all 50 states — and Florida performed abysmally.

-----

Because Florida is run by former hospital executive Rick Scott, you might assume the state would have a solid health-care system. But Scott is a profiteer whose company stole an unprecedented amount of money from Medicare and Medicaid in the '90s and who as governor then refused to expand Medicaid, campaigned against Obamacare, and did basically everything in his power to make sure it's really difficult for Floridians to get insurance and pay for routine medical care. here
