UC Santa Cruz is no longer the most stoned college in the U.S.  Lewis and Clark College is #4. I'm really surprised Reed College didn't make the list.

Healthcare workers need a good night's sleep. Don't know about the meditation part, but sleep is essential. Until the Libby Zion case, medical residents had to take call on a brutal schedule, and they didn't care if you were sleep-deprived or not. You still had to make life and death decisions. This was based on Dr. William Halsted's surgical schdule, where he worked non-stop in order to develop his skills, and so all the residents had to be so dedicated.  Turns out he was a cocaine addict, and that's how he did it.

Now, this is someone who is a fascist. Gretchen Whitmer wanted doctors to take implicit bias training to retain their medical license. After affirmative action and DEI, of course people have developed opinions about who is really qualified and who is not. That's just natural. Doctors are human, too. It's not "implicit bias". It's just being aware of what's going on.

Blue states are not going to like thisCMS is closing the loophole that allows Blue states, especially Oregon, where 70% of Oregon Health Plan money comes from the fed, to institute a "provider tax" that would pay for Medicaid funding. Some feel that the states should be paying for more of this, and stop using the provider tax trick.  Of course, Oregon is paying for healthcare for illegal immigrants, which many would not agree to. Oregon has money – they just need to prioritize citizens.
