None, unless, like her and her friends, you’re a member of the political elite. It’s naked, crony government, ugly and exposed. Time for Irish Democracy, folks! Silent, dogged resistance. Truculent, passive withdrawal. Rub their uplifted, powdered noses in their own shit.
UPDATE: Austin Bay is peeved.

“Earth to elites: Citizens of truly democratic countries don’t want unlimited immigration into their countries by people who couldn’t be less interested in democracy. They also don’t want to be governed by the rules and regulations of faceless bureaucrats whose not-so-hidden goals are power and riches for themselves and their friends. Simple, isn’t it?”
And the British revolt could become an American one, too. All the polls & elite opinion there pointed to continued EU membership. Strangely all the polls and elite opinion here point to a Hildabeast victory in November. Which would mean more of the same. Unless…

The effulgent visitor experience of the White House, that is. To be seen through the bars of a new, higher fence. Twelve feet. Thereabouts.
“The new fence ‘incorporates anti-climb and intrusion detection technology, while respecting the historical significance and visitor experience at the White House and President’s Park,’ the Secret Service and Park Service said in a joint statement.”
To keep the riff-raff out? Or the riff raff in? Inquiring minds want to know.

Tar and feathers are too good for these big government motherfuckers. Who are, quite simply, always on the lookout for new ways to justify their fat salaries and skinny efforts. While the pols are too busy thieving to help. Rope. Lamp post.
“You can bet that if the powers that be were in intractable pain they would figure out a way to get the opioids. I have a mother-in-law with spinal stenosis who was in so much pain last week that she was crying vigorously. She’s a stoic who has hardly ever cried in her entire life, but the pain was unbearable. We were able to get her fentanyl patches and the pain is reduced. However, the doctors are limited in what they can give her and it is quite scary.” —veryskeptic
“What’s it like for the kids when your mom is suffering excruciating pain because the doctor’s afraid to prescribe her enough medication to deal with the pain caused by cancer? When it seems to take an act of Congress to get a prescription for synthetic THC to deal with nausea brought on by the anti-cancer medication? When your mother starves to death because she can’t eat for the nausea and pain? And you have to watch her suffer and die because some bureaucrat was worried she might become addicted.” —Rob Crawford
Mrs. Charm was also a stoic and she was also in bad pain from her lymphoma cancer but in her case it was more a stubborn refusal to buck bad medical advice than government interference. When she finally did agree to take the pills and later the injections she died in relative peace.
My grandfather, however, died in excruciating pain because his spinal cancer occurred at a time (1935) when the bureaucrats were just starting to restrict the opioids that had, throughout his life, been available without a prescription.
Big government is not your friend. Whatever lying dipshits like Obama and Clinton say.

Our health care insurance provider (that’s a mouthful) notifies me that they won’t consider a recent claim for a doctor visit that produced a prescription for antibiotics for a minor, but painful, infection. Unless they have a copy of my medical summary on the case from Medicare.
And if they don’t hear from me on this in 45 days they will cancel the claim. Hey bozos, it’s been 90 days since I submitted an application to Medicare for Part B of their glorious “benefits” and I have heard exactly NOTHING.
Moreover, I learned the other day that if a doc-in-the-box doesn’t take Medicare, get this: Under federal rules (oh, goody, more rules) Medicare folks like me aren’t allowed to pay for health care services with a credit card at places that don’t take Medicare. I’m a prisoner of Medicare. Any wonder I’m a budding Libertarian?
Uber and Lyft have left Austin, thanks to the bureaucrats and their taxi cartel.
“Say NO to corporate rule!” was one of the ironic, liberal-alluring slogans the corporate cartel used to fight a pro-ride sharing referendum that failed 48,673 to 38,539.
T-shirt sloganeers like to call Austin “weird” and it truly is because so many things are backward, despite the supposedly “progressive” outlook of a majority of the populace. All you have to do is appeal to their unthinking attitudes about such things as development and corporations and they’ll sit up and bark like good little doggies for a bacon treat. Thanks, morons!

Taxation is Theft: a new meme sweeping the Internet. Especially when the taxes go to politicians and bureaucrats who use it for their cronies and pet schemes.
No wonder the FCC wants to regulate what we can say on here. And the IRS wants to punish conservatives for daring suggest major changes.
