    I didn't see anything about infant mortality upthread though
    The NYT piece on how horrible Venezuela is now -- I linked it at the outset of this discussion -- focuses on child malnutrition, infant mortality and other medical disasters.

    As I mentioned, it's a very good article.

      Why would the EPA need biometric locks, office bug sweeps and 24 hour armed bodyguards? Not passing the smell test...

              Somebody needs to, and it wasn't Obama or Clinton.

              Hezbollah fought against Daesh, which was created by our last corrupt regime.

                Unfortunately, at least IMO, the writers don't particularly care to address the "Why" it happened or even speculate that it might be a result of democratic socialism.

                I also think this is an appropriate time for a reminder:

                  That's a little harsh on Bernie, but fair. He's definitely awful.

                              Republicans are gambling quite a bit on the tax bill. It ain't popular at all. Less popular than when Obamacare passed. Correct if I'm wrong on a details, but the personal tax cuts don't go into effect until you file in 2019...so if R's are counting "once people see a refund, it'll be popular"...that won't happen until after the next election. Secondly, the personal tax cuts are temporary but the corporate ones are permanent? I wonder if that goes down well with those on the populist right?

                                12 House Republicans voted against the bill. All but one are from New York, New Jersey, or California.
