Laughable (and tragic) the same week we hear of the Vatican children's hospital substandard care scandal we have the pope weighing in like some kind of expert on obscure pediatric genetic defects thousands of miles away.

And the pope is just as bad.

93 people die every day from gunshot wounds.  Even if you knock off the 3 per day that the cops murder - some people think the cops are always justified when they off some poor bastard - you get a nice round 90.

It isn't only in the ghettos.

Jesus, we have limited resources, where can we whittle that 93 number down the most, the fastest, and at the least cost ??

Here's what the republicunts have in mind for 'Murrican kids.

Trumpcare could force 4 million special needs kids into pricy ‘pediatric nursing homes’

The Senate bill has an exemption aiming to protect some special needs children on Medicaid, but it would only apply to the 1.2 million special needs children who meet the SSI definition of “disabled,” but not the remaining 3-4 million special needs children who receive Medicaid because their parents have low incomes.

“The potential consequences could be devastating,” said Sara Bachman, who is also a researcher at the Catalyst Center, where they study improving insurance for children with special needs. “States on their own are quite variable on the ability to support the services kids need. The federal participation in the Medicaid program is in an essential underpinning. States are really going to be in a pickle.”
