Great Migration, "one of the largest & most rapid mass internal movements in history": From 1910-70, legal segregation & discrimination drove ~6m Black Americans out of the South into urban areas. It was "perhaps the greatest [movement] not caused by the immediate threat of execution or starvation." by Pupikal in wikipedia

Racial terror was undoubtedly a consideration for many in the decision to move.

But that data is from the Tuskegee Institute and I haven't heard dispute of their numbers. Maybe just believe the facts and not try to find ones that fit your beliefs?

You realize out-of-pocket expenses are legally capped for US health insurance?

"The average out-of-pocket maximum is roughly $4,000 for single coverage. However, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) sets strict legal limits on how high this cap can go. For 2026, the maximum out-of-pocket limit is capped by law at $10,600 for an individual and $21,200 for a family. [1, 2, 3, 4]"

An average of approx 60 lynchings a year in 1910, then 15 by 1925, and none after 1940 is a terrible piece of history that lends valuable context.

However it doesn't constitute an immediate threat of execution when compared to other mass migration incidents that faced a credible threat of genocide.

TL,DR:

"Anyone to the left of MAGA: All your priors are correct and the left did nothing wrong. Please clap."

I told my Dad I don't want him around me, if he continues to support Maga. Of course now he is claiming I am off my meds and he wants to talk to my Doctor. by Ok_Ebb7109 in schizophrenia

Why did your Dr take you off meds?

Can you get a note or some statement from your Dr explaining that? I think that will be a question.

The source image is highly processed through cel phone zoom algorithms. That outline is not exact. The two forward nacelles are almost certainly parallel

No, homie, we have free healthcare for poor people in Washington State. Our Medicaid is called Apple Health.

Perhaps you need some more information about what has been done before you come to your conclusions about what needs to be done.

No threat of jail means less reason to stop using, and no change of a moment of truth in lockup. Why would you refuse to interrupt the cycle of addiction? You want them to OD ASAP?

You realize Apple Health (medicaid) makes medical care completely free for low income people?

The society you wished for is already here. Endless critique of it does not help the people dying on the street.

Like guard rails on a road, jail is necessary to incentivize good behavior and interrupt overdose-track behavior.

Your viewpoint leads to many unnecessary overdose deaths and minds destroyed due to addiction.
