The law should be: If the doctor is recommending it, it should be ILLEGAL for the insurance companies to deny it without appealing to a board of physicians. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND
Corporate greed is Google quadrupling its quarterly profit to $112 billion, getting an $18.4 billion tax break last year & laying off 13,500 workers since 2023, while its founders, Larry Page & Sergey Brin, got $270 billion richer since Trump's election.
It never trickles down.
They keep asking why people are angry.
Because we work harder, pay more, own less and watch politicians hand our future to billionaires and bomb manufacturers.
That clear enough?
Half the reason so many adults feel nostalgic about college is because it was the only time they lived in highly social, walkable communities where they saw their friends every day, rarely needed cars, and were surrounded by neighborhoods designed to foster connection.
Remember when the Panama Papers came out and revealed many of the rich and powerful people in the world are part of a criminal conspiracy to dodge taxes and hoard stolen wealth in offshore accounts?
Literally nothing happened when the evidence emerged, except the reporter working on the story was assassinated by a car bomb.
Corporate greed is UnitedHealth making a $5.48 billion profit last quarter (up 60% from last year), spending $33 billion in stock buybacks since 2022, paying its CEO over $60 million last year while it works to hike premiums by up to 25% next year.
Yes. We need Medicare for All.
the air quality sucks, the food gives you explosive diarrhea, we have no public transport, medical care is unaffordable, they’re tearing down forests to build AI data centers and I still have to clock in for work
Lindsey Graham died Friday & his sister has already been sworn in. Remember when Mike Johnson refused to seat Adelita Grijalva for 50 days after she was elected? That is what we are fighting for in the midterms, a return to democracy & fairness and to remove fascist Republicans.
We are living through a "Cost of Living Crisis" while corporations are reporting "Record Breaking Profits." These two things are not happening at the same time by accident. One is literally causing the other.
They tell you taxing billionaires on unrealized stock gains is unfair because “it’s not real money until it’s sold.”
Really?
My house goes up in value on paper, and suddenly the government wants a bigger check every single year.
I didn’t sell it.
I didn’t cash out.
I didn’t make a single dollar.
The only thing that changed was someone else’s estimate of what it’s might be worth.
Yet I’m expected to pay real money on imaginary profits.
Amazing how “unrealized gains” become sacred the moment the ultra wealthy are involved but for everyone else, paper wealth is apparently taxable enough.
Serious question for people who understand economics.
If inflation is only around 3.5%, why does it feel like food costs 2x, rent is through the roof, and everyday life is way more expensive than a few years ago?
What exactly is the inflation number measuring? Feels like regular people are living in a completely different reality.
If it turns out Mitch McConnell is dead and the GOP are involved in a coverup to prevent a special election that is mandated by Kentucky law, people need to go to prison.
Full stop.
