@JamesTate121 Illegal immigrants are net tax takers, not net payers. As a population their effective tax rate is negative, unlike these companies which make enormous net tax contributions.

This dissenting opinion is so bad

@dieworkwear Agree it’s silly to hide the studs under a vest. I definitely like the low cut waistcoat better than a cummerbund which always looked weird to me. Thanks.

[Scott Cardone @CardoneMD]

@dieworkwear Never knew this was the distinction between these styles of waistcoat. Still, I have always preferred the higher cut, I think it draws the eye upward and looks more flattering, the lower cut draws the eye to your gut and can accentuate a belly if you have one. What do you think?

This is a graph of budget deficits, not of revenues. The revenue does go up after tax cuts. Laffer didn’t lie. The issue is spending.

Here is the actual graph of revenues.

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism.

It's a lie.

Some more thoughts on AI. Specifically, this explores what has happened to doctors that will eventually allow health execs to replace us with AI. We increasingly are following a script that we didn’t write, making it easy to substitute in the script itself and cut us out.

@DanLairdMD Even pain management specialists refuse to prescribe opiates and are sending their patients to the ER. The patients tell me that their pain specialist told them “the ER has better pain meds.” I’ve heard that exact quote from patients so many times that it has to be real.

@RepJayapal I think you mean she lost her clump of cells?

@MattWalshBlog Who is sneako? Is that his given name?

@davidhogg111 The question isn’t the semantics of the word radical, it’s whether you think price control is a good idea. It’s not a new idea, we already know what happens as a result, which is shortage of supply of the good whose price is artificially lowered below market.

@TheAgeofShoddy You can imagine what it’s like to be a physician trying to get a history.

@Ignoramatus @MarmotRespecter Am I not reading the graph correctly? To me it looks like there is only about a 20-25% drop on Christmas.

[Scott Cardone @CardoneMD]

@dissproportion In a sane world, we would make recs to you, and you would decide what you do and don’t want to pay for, there would be no third party involved, and if you decided not to do what we recommended you can’t come back and sue us for it. That would entirely solve this problem.

@Kohlliers @kirawontmiss Pretty fucking unfair if you ask me.

[Scott Cardone @CardoneMD]

Nothing is unlimited. There aren’t infinite surgeons and doctors and meds and supplies and beds and rooms. Nothing is unconditional. The only question is who does the economizing, is it a consumer deciding what to and not to buy or is it a bureaucrat deciding what you can have?

[Brandon Rose, MD, MPH @BRoseMDMPH]

@X0_1_7ex @DrDiGiorgio Correct. That’s what I think. Unconditional healthcare for Americans.
