Why would anyone expose their world to strangers that can't be trusted?

Adam Schrader

What's facebook?

Christopher Watson

Didn't faze me a bit really!

Donna Welborn-Dicus

I've been watching live feed of Canary Island volcano. A LOT more interesting than FB or Whatsapp. Why is there not more coverage on US news???

Max DeYoung

Because MSM only feeds you what they want you to know about.

Jarrod Powell

Because I hardly use them anyways, plus text messing still worked so who really cares it didn't stop me from talking to who I needed to...

Corey Smith

Didn't affect me that much. At first, I thought it was my internet.

Big Pharma wants it all. If Joe puts a cap on insulin, Big Pharma will not give him his 10%. Tough call for Joe.

Adam Schrader

High prices only hurt people that need this to live. Not dampen innovation. Big Pharmaceutical just want to get richer. Good job Biden!!! Keep up the great work!

Beware of unintended consequences. Like insulin shortages.

Max DeYoung

That will be a way for Big Pharma, to justify price gouging. Excuse me, I mean, reasonable price increases.

Isn't the new annoying KMIZ popup fun. When you click on every article, you have to also delete the pop up, so you can read the article. So very intelligent of KMIZ.

Adam Schrader

Horrible idea KMIZ. Will only make me not come here if it continues. What a pain.

Max DeYoung

Adam, KMIZ doesn't want either one of us. Because we have an opinion, and don't walk lock step with them. Hang in there friend.
