fuSo its been just about 3 weeks on this most #Mediterrian#Diet wathcing calories, sodium, and monitoring weight and blood-pressure for help to build a #heartHealthy life while living with heart failure. I've noticed that TUESDAYS seem to be the ones that give me trouble, goving over in either sodium or calories. I wonder why that is. There is nothing particularly different about Tuesdays than any other weekday.
While it's obvious the U.S. federal #government must drastically cut #spending to avoid ruin, decreased government spending alone doesn't mean meor #Liberty and increasing Liberty sometimes doesn't cost a dime.
The US government spends 36.3% of GDP. The Pakistani government spends 20% of GDP. The Iranian government spends 12.3% of GDP. The Venezuelan government spends 12% of #GDP
None of these other countries have more liberty than Americans do, despite having more reasonable budgets. They demonstrate that the US could cut two thirds of spending, or more, and still wind up with a tyrannical State.
@mr_penguin I thought only Texas did this nonsense, and it's been almost 20 years since I lived there so they might not any more. That the live free or die state does is nothing short of embarassing.
