COMMENTARY
The observation by AP that two police officers suffered injuries and had to be hospitalized raises some interesting questions about healthcare in the USA. The police officers injured will get good medical care and it will be paid for by the police benefit program. But what about the unemployed, uninsured protester that gets injured ... how are his/her medical bills going to get paid. Let us please hear from the 1% about how issues like this are going to be addressed.

Nothing wrong with a market economy when there are profits to be made ... but everything wrong when it is only about satisfying needs. The #CapitalistMarketEconomy is just not good enough!
