Eagerly awaiting the next update.
"We have reason to believe that the suspect may have used a firearm during the incident."
He'll come on here one day and try to convince us we are wearing our trousers backwards.
ironically reducing everything to a few cartoon villains is exactly how parasitic corporate capitalism has consistently avoided systematic change…
Make the feckers scared I say. Nothing else has worked. Sexy shooters on every corner. A veritable Chalamet army. Vive le twink revolution!
Be right back, I need to amend my manifesto...
No it's all chicken. Or all of the chicken. Whatever.
Big win today for all the Hypernormalstation fans.
Exactly. When caught, shamed CEOs are outed in the papers. Massive golden handshake for taking one for the team and replaced in minutes.
You realise there's actual research on this. The combined cost of healthcare administration (not healthcare as a whole) is massive, and is anomalously massive in the US, because of the insurance and claims system:
And specifically within the US, administrative costs are far higher for private insurance than government medicare:
So, even keeping hospitals and doctors obscenely rich, there is a ton of things that can be removed from the US healthcare system.
That’s a dig at Richard Herring.

He doesn't care. He's in his castle eating fillet-o-fish after fillet-o-fish.
Fillet-O-Boom Tish.....
I've seen a few posts recently where I've thought "oh, so NOW it's important to have a moral discussion about this topic?"
Amen

TBH that 8.3% seems a bit low to me - every doctor's office I've ever been to in the US seems to have a ratio of at least 2-3 admin staff per doctor and then there's the nurses and nurse assistants, then you add that to all the insurance people
How the feck did the US healthcare system get so bloated?
The same way.half the population did.

Don't bother, Pogue is an expert on every subject. He shared a taxi with someone for a few minutes and learned all there is to know about undercover cops or spies or something. I stopped paying much attention after he wrote "The things I learned" like he's the David Attenborough of specialisms or a knockoff mutant who absorbs people's knowledge like a shit X-Man. Personally I'd like the power to grow hair again but this fecker already has a quiff.
Indeed. Occasionally they let a flunkey junior minister or single rogue trader get the flack, but the train chugs on regardless. Obviously no one thinks gunning down civilians is progressive or civilised, but many a romantic piece of art has been written about things just as violent and yet justified by the context of time and perspective.

Lobbying, though TBH the bloating isn't restricted to just health care
It's such a weird system, my local hospital is a non-profit, some of it's staff are employed directly but a lot are not, I'm guessing that's the same in a lot of places.
When the billing goes thru there's payments listed for all the different doctors/departments involved instead of 1 bill
There is a great book called Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist by Alexander Berkman.
He attempted an assassination of a high profile industrialist in the hope it would spark the bubbling discontent into a class war or socialist uprising.
He botched it, got arrested and wrote what is a brilliant account of prison life.
It's a great read. The first chapter is him describing the emotions and feelings on his way to the office of the chap he was going to shoot. It's fascinating.
I doubt Amazon had to work their algorithm too hard to recommend that to you.

He's going to regret being so pretty when he's inside, that's for sure.
The algorithm dude. If only Luigi paid attention.
We all know Mario was the head of the organisation.
