How Obamacare Made Things Worse for Patients With Preexisting Conditions
One of the strange features of the national health care conversation is how it has evolved. What is often referred to as Obamacare began as an attempt to insure the uninsured.

Tents, Homelessness, and Misery: 9 Things I Saw in San Francisco
SAN FRANCISCO—Call me a poop skeptic. After years of reading about the alleged horrors of San Francisco, I decided I wanted to see for myself if the City by the Bay was really in such dire conditions.
