“I studied music for my first two years in college. When I went to UC Berkeley, I failed the admission requirements to get into the music school there, so I studied communications and public policy, which actually were a greater engine for my career than a musical education would have been. If I had gotten into the music department at Berkeley, I'd probably be a timpanist in an orchestra right now.” IfsYearsFirstsHas BeensTwoSchoolCareersGreaterPolicyCollegeCommunicationRight NowMusicalDepartmentTwo YearsEnginesRequirementsOrchestraAdmissionPublic PolicyBerkeleyMusical EducationUc Berkeley Author:Stewart Copeland

“I would never say they look exactly the same, but what I would say is that the differences are not enough to save your job, to save your life, or to save the planet.

“Right now in the insurance markets, we have sort of a disaster unfolding, a downward spiral, adverse selection, premiums in the individual market going through the roof. People can't afford insurance and insurance companies are losing hundreds of millions of dollars. If you repeal part of Obamacare to get rid of the individual mandate but keep some of the ideas, that people can still buy insurance after they're sick, the situation gets extraordinarily worse.
