Congrats SCOTUS for finding the tariffs illegal. Fuck you for not granting a stay and letting this illegal cash grab go on for the better part of a year. You owe us a fucking apology (and resignations) for the damage caused to government, businesses and people.

The fact that there was only a 353% increase begs the question: WTF were the numbers beforehand if what we are seeing now IS only a 353% increase?

Billionaire. Resigning. Big fucking deal. Might as well say "retiring". Generations of his family will still never need to lift a finger to live in luxury. Prison, strip him of everything - then come tell me about it.

What do you expect? If private equity hasn't gobbled homes up to become rentals, tens of thousands of little llcs leave them vacant half the year as short term rentals.

Nope. Fuck them. "Growth" does not help average Americans. Billionaires do not need help getting richer.

“Doctors won’t tell you this, but you don’t need medication for a tapeworm—all you need is the natural power of friction,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said as he dropped to the floor, lifted his legs high, and dragged his ass along the White House carpet during a press conference.

I prefer "Bounties on Billionaires" Nice ring to. Funds could be easily crowdsourced.

Better be prepared for more than protests. Kent State spurred change. How much more violence have we seen in the last year and it's only getting worde.

Duh. Been saying that for a year. Xi and Putin are just waiting to see if Trump can fully consolidate his grip on us.

000

Reporters need to ask "who told you this?" Interesting to see if he throws anyone under the bus.

000

It's only calamity if you don't see the end goal. Trump as Emperor of the West. Xi as Emperor of the East. Putin as Emperor of Europe. A triad of dictators dividing their spoils.

She's an idiot to share the Nobel with Trump. May as well give him your lunch money too.

A year ago I was posting that Trump's goal was to control the entire western hemisphere while giving Europe to Putin and Asia to Ji. We've just made a giant leap in that direction. Venezuela legitimized the war in Ukraine and green lights Chinese ambitions.

Believe nothing that this administration says. They lie for their own ends. Some for money. Some for hate.

Cuban seems unwilling to do the hard work - telling hugely profitable insurance companies that they need to pack it in and profit elsewhere. Their lower echelon employees will be absorbed but lobbying marketing investors and execs are out

Vacancy rates do not count the short term rentals.

Karl Feret @buddhaweasel.bsky.social · 28/12/2025

Wrong answer. There is plenty of housing. Too much of it is sitting intentionally vacant as private equity "investment" or been converted to short term rentals on Airbnb or Vrbo. Building more without addressing the greed solves nothing.

Can we get a couple of our billionaires to step in and "invest" to replace the withheld Federal funds? Be a nice fuck you to the administration to get even a handful of these projects back on track.

Not easy. Financially painful for those who can afford it. Uncertainty for those who need care. But wholly possible if you stick to the goal of putting patient care above profits. The savings by eliminating investors, marketing, lobbying, executives, and parallel administration is huge.

Enlighten us. Don't just ask the question without being prepared to answer it yourself.

Up front cost will be heavy to reorganize the system. It's already running itself into the ground to generate profits for a few on the pain and suffering of the many. Especially with private equity bankrupt everything it touches.

000

RFK can't run in a circle without tripping over himself. But it would be under HHS management.

000

We already have unregulated for profit entities deciding who dies, lives or thrives in Medicare and Medicaid. Most payments are already algorithmically based on need. The rest already should be getting fair human review but we know insurance put profit over health

000

Pay off the student debt in sync with introducing debt free education for those vital services. They can still have choices on where to work just like most government agencies. Standardize pay into existing govt schedules adjusted for regional cost of living.

000

Mark. Sorry but most private health insurance will cease to exist. There will be a small high end private market and the larger public market. 300+ million taxpayer pool, administration of which is done for service not profit. Most painful for execs, lobbyists and investors.

000

Yes. They can be absorbed into the new system or choose to go it alone. UHC still needs most of the paper shuffling jobs it already handles. We are mostly eliminating marketing, lobbying and executive costs. Sorry, but investors are going to have to prey on something other than pain.

000

Give me a list of UHC problems that need resolution. I've probably responded with viable solutions to most. This is not hard. Just tedious and some are going to have to suck it up and maybe not get what they feel they are worth.
