The idea that the US health care system is free market or an indictment of the private sector is ludicrous when only 11 cents of every dollar of health care expenditure is out of pocket. It was 33 cents in 1970. It’s a government system with perverse profits for certain players. healthsystemtracker.org/char…
Libertarians need to examine why such disfunction exists in the private sector, how such enterprises persist in a free market and what possible solution there exists outside state intervention.

Looking for some #RStats help. I created a factor using: mutate(x = factor(x, levels = unique(x)). When I reran the code and compared to a previous run, something with the factor is different. dplyr::all_equal reports this: factor<a0b1e> vs factor<038df>. What does this mean?

Looking for help from the #RStats community. Anyone know the vroom pipe connection equivalent to dplyr's filter(x %in% y), where y is a vector? I'm trying to pre-filter a large file. Maybe @kylefbutts?
