Will the Left Ever Stop Making Everything about Race?

As Hans Bader points out in this Liberty Unyielding piece, the Biden administration is injecting racial considerations into the practice of medicine.

He writes, “But the Biden administration is now giving doctors a financial incentive to blame ‘differences in health outcomes’ on ‘systemic racism’ against minorities, and to adopt ‘value statements’ that treat race as a ‘political’ rather than ‘physiological’ reality, even though some health conditions (like sickle-cell anemia and Tay-Sachs disease) have physiological causes linked to people’s racial background.”

Perhaps we’re not too far from the day when the voting blocs that the Democrats want to keep in their corral will stop being impressed by gimmicky stuff like this.
