Medical debt is a huge problem in America. It’s estimated that 43 million Americans owe $75 billion in past-due medical bills. Medical debt is highest in states that refused to expand Medicaid through the Affordable Care Act (a.k.a. Obamacare). Studies show that in states that expanded Medicaid through the ACA, the percentage of nonelderly, low-income adults with medical debt dropped from 43% to 30% from 2012 to 2015. In states that did not, the number only fell 7%. Missouri has the seventh-highest number of adults 18 to 64 who have…

Angry Nerd: YouTube Can’t Help You

Some call me cheap; I say I'm DIY-enabled. Occasionally I pay for it, like the time my motorcycle nearly combusted after I “fixed” the headlight. Maybe I should have consulted YouTube. Or not. Recently, the voice chat on my Xbox crapped out, so I searched for helpful tutorials. What I found? Videos of charmless children all the way down. The top results redefined uselessness. Make sure the jack on my Apple EarPods is plugged in. Turn the Xbox on and off. Have your parents buy you a PlayStation 4. (Listen,…
