This is said repeatedly, and yet the previous administration, with a Republican house and senate, never advanced a bill for it

No, the previous administration didn't introduce the bill. It was introduced back in 1993 by a group of about 20 Republican sponsors. It didn't get enough traction to go anywhere.

There are a lot of similarities between the ACA and HEART, but there are differences too.

This changes nothing.

Facebook isn't a reliable news source. It was never meant to be a reliable news source and will never be a reliable news source.

Nobody should ever rely on Facebook to provide reliable news in the first place, so making it less reliable and more biased should have no effect on anyone who isn't a complete fucking idiot.

The implants have been used to control certain forms of epilepsy for some time. The side effects are known, which is how the possible use for weight control was discovered.

You apparently live in a magical world where your stores are staffed by perfect beings who never make a mistake like overlooking an expired product on the shelf.

Unfortunately, the rest of us live in the real world where stores are generally staffed by teenagers making minimum wage and, as it turns out, they're fallible and do make mistakes.

Perhaps you could invite all the blind people to come live in your world so they can benefit from perfection of the angels you have stocking your grocery stores.
