Firing Line with Margaret Hoover

While he advocates for more price transparency in health care, Lanhee Chen says it is only “part of the puzzle” of fixing the system. "There is a tendency amongst some to argue that price transparency is like the holy grail. I don't feel that way… There's no silver bullet." Apple: bit.ly/4chWzAa

Yale Law School Prof. @oonahathaway.bsky.social warns Congress risks becoming a "completely irrelevant institution" if it doesn't reassert power over matters like declaring war. "It needs to be willing to push back against the president, which right now this Congress is just not willing to do."
"We don't have civility in our public discourse and we must work to restore it," says Justice Anthony Kennedy. "The incivility that we see in our public life generally is creeping too much into the Court's opinions." TONIGHT 8:30 pm ET @PBS.org listings: to.pbs.org/39hI6Tf
“There's,,, all sorts of new products that are going to be put in the market," says "1929" author @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social. “We're now going to take companies that have no disclosure rules and we're going to allow them effectively to be in the public markets without the same rules.”
Health care policy expert Lanhee Chen proposes Individual Health Accounts, but he recognizes “it's not for everybody at this point.” “Health savings accounts as they exist now are predominantly a vehicle for middle, upper-middle income, higher income folks to save for their health care expenses.”
Yale Law School Prof. @oonahathaway.bsky.social said in Feb. the Supreme Court has become "extremely partisan in a way that we haven't seen... in my lifetime." "Big question is, are they going to apply the same limitations to President Trump that they applied to President Biden?" bit.ly/4vdQmN0
"Dispatches from Grief" author Danielle Crittenden acknowledges she has learned something from suffering, but she rejects the "happiness hucksters" who insist grief is a gift. "It does make you, I think, a bigger and better person. But as a gift, I would happily return it."
"The incivility that we see in our public life generally is creeping too much into the court's opinions." Justice Anthony Kennedy says there was a "marvelous" collegiality among the justices when he was hearing cases on the Supreme Court, but that has changed.
"Every crash is really about one thing. It's about credit, it's about debt, too much debt in the system," says @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social, author of "Too Big to Fail" and "1929." "That is the match that lights the fire of every financial crisis." Follow on Apple: bit.ly/484tjuy
"Legislators see themselves first and foremost as team players for their parties," says Philip Wallach. "They don't see their job as placing limits on the president," says @oonahathaway.bsky.social. "They see their job as enabling him." TONIGHT 8:30 pm ET @pbs.org listings: to.pbs.org/39hI6Tf
"Congress has come to see itself as a secondary player in a fundamentally presidential drama, so that the question they always face in their own minds is a yes or no question about the president…," says Yuval Levin. "They have a real job to do."
HUD Secr Turner blamed Biden, litigation and a government shutdown. Sen. Gillibrand: "Stop talking about Biden. Talk about your record your report has been delayed for over a year." Hundreds of thousands of people are still without housing. The data are missing. The families are not.
Political violence has absolutely no place in our nation. Our democracy can only function when we resolve our differences peacefully. I am grateful to law enforcement for their swift response and that no one was seriously injured last night.
Lambert: The Strait of Hormuz is going to be open and we’re going to control it. Mockler: In two weeks? Lambert: It doesn’t matter if it’s two weeks or two months. Mockler: It does actually matter because economists are saying if it's closed for a few more months, we're going into a recession
Praising a communist foe is insane. NOW: President Trump calls Chinese President Xi Jinping a "great leader." "Sometimes people don't like me saying it, but I say it anyway, because it's true — I always say the truth."

I’ll recall the Harbor Bridge fondly. The times I crossed as a child, riding w/my daddy to his job beneath. A spectacular view once my eyes topped the window’s edge, fear of its height subsided. Praying as my 1st 4-cyl car inched to peak & flood of relief it did. A gateway to family, friends, & fun.

People obsess over formations far too much. Football isn’t won because you wrote “4-3-3” on a team sheet. A formation is a reference point. It’s something I delve into much deeper in my book. Keep your eyes peeled! #FootballTactics #Tactics #lfc #ynwa #anfield
