Friday Feature: Bernie Bros and Health Insurance

Maybe it’s last week’s bout with the flu, or the hot mess that the Iowa caucuses became that drew me to this article — I don’t know. More likely, it’s the intriguing tug of the subtitle -- “Until I loved and lost one” -- that pulled me in.

Being a woman beyond a certain age, I don’t know many “Bernie bros,” so the need for a  little clarity on that subject drew me in as well.

What I got, however, was a story. Yes, it had politics, but it also had humanity, romance and more than a touch of sadness.

It's easy to get caught up in the politics of things and, in the process, lose our humanity and forget the inextricable connection between what we are working for and what we are working against. More than politics or even humanity, this article is a good read. one that has humanity at its very heart.
