We have sitting politicians whose brain-body connection is running on a higher ping than a Venezuelan kid in an American CoD lobby and they're voting on life changing policies. Dear god

As an ex Amazonian, can confirm this here is the most accurate blow by blow description of Amazon culture.
And after all this, once a quarter, a VP will write an email -
Dear Team,
It’s always Day 1 and <leadership principle > <leadership principle > <leadership principle > and we need <leadership principle > <leadership principle > <leadership principle > and thanks to our organisation restructuring <leadership principle > <leadership principle > we can now help thousands of customers <leadership principle > <leadership principle >. It’s always day 1!

When she thought it was a trans woman, she was out for blood. Now that it’s a white dude, she’s saying a prayer for him. How about that.

Young people are constantly told that we can’t have basic things other countries have like universal healthcare, universal childcare, paid leave, living wages, and clean air and water because it negatively impacts the profits of large corporations.

Call that whatever you want.

@unusual_whales It must be nice to never be held personally responsible for ruining the world

[Slurmyyy @mmmbergen]

@mtkonczal Do you account for massive tax cuts during Covid that inflated the economy and dem leadership trying to reign it in during the past administration? What about the tariff tax being applied to all Americans now? And another tax cut for billionaires?

[Spencer Hakimian @SpencerHakimian]

Lol they revised May and June payrolls growth from 150,000 per month down to 10,000 per month.

I’m sure it was just an honest mistake when they overestimated it by 1,400% thirty days ago.

When a history museum rewrites history to appease the president, it stops being a museum and starts being state propaganda. Straight-up Orwellian.

"Please don't pass the bill I just voted for" is one of the most maddening recurring features of Congress

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

The question is the path to that end point. Total Transparency to the contract level is one required element

The bigger issue is that the big ins comps control 230m, or 2/3 of the country and the big PBMs control 275m. That's total control.
They design plans that put the credit risk of patient deductibles and out of pocket on providers. Think of how insane that is. They literally design their plans, that employers , ACA, Medicare (D and MA) offer in a way that removes ALL credit risk from them.

In a country where 40pct of adults don't have $400, and the ave deductible is $2500, that's a cluster fuck. Whether it's employer driven or not. The same applies to pharmacy and medical benefits

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

When a large employer pays so little that their full time employees qualify for Medicaid , (or any public assistance ) we the taxpayers are effectively subsidizing that big company. That’s wrong
