Between 1998 and 2018, healthcare/hospital services increased by almost 225%. Meanwhile, the prices of televisions have decreased by 100%.

It is easy to forget the longer-term picture, so here is some of it.

Neoliberal capitalism was supposed to generate investment and growth. It has generated neither.

(Note that in this respect, Trump’s presidency – represented by the last data point – made little difference.)

Worth mentioning that if you stopped counting ballots *right now*, Biden would win with this map. So Trump is reliant on ballots counted after Election Day for his comeback chances.

@RobAnderson2018 Binged through it in less than 24 hours and now I'm a few hours deep in chess strategy youtube videos. It has been a welcome distraction from doom scrolling in these stressful times.

@GuyAPerson @LumpoThinkyMan @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang I like this as a visual for what you're saying, would expect to see all below that 5 percent line if the non statistical definition was used.

[John Paterson @CatFuneral_]

@LumpoThinkyMan @GuyAPerson @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang Ahh your understanding of math language is so poor that you don't realize you're proving yourself wrong with your own 'evidence'.

[John Paterson @CatFuneral_]

@LumpoThinkyMan @GuyAPerson @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang I give you a serious response with links and you reply like a child, even if you were correct why would I spend another second of energy on you? Disappointing.

[John Paterson @CatFuneral_]

@LumpoThinkyMan @GuyAPerson @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang The Bayesian theory equation in the link I gave will explain what do do with it at that point.

[John Paterson @CatFuneral_]

@LumpoThinkyMan @GuyAPerson @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang In statistics terms it doesn't mean total tests. In the picture you linked and highlight he says its the situation in which someone who doesn't have it, BUT has a positive test result. We're only dealing with the subset of tests where a positive test has occurred, not all tests.

[John Paterson @CatFuneral_]

@LumpoThinkyMan @GuyAPerson @Dmills13f1 @AndrewYang This might help explain what he means when he says it's a multiplication problem. False positives are conditional upon the case where a positive result has occurred, not over the set of all tests.
