Fuck. We have been complaining about health costs since at least the 1990's.

Sick, the US did a backflip.

That’s horrify to see on a line graph

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

what's interesting is that for the last small period of time (not clear but maybe a couple years) some countries like France and Germany have been moving NW, which means they're getting better and cheaper. I wonder if that's a blip or a start of a trend.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

It can be doubly good, but it can also be that the effects of lowering costs will show up later.

Bernie was the compromise candidate.

I'd clear up the message a little bit, but that might be the first bumper sticker I ever put on a car I owned.

alleged boy just acted in self-defense on behalf of the health of private-citizens-collective. this could be the class defense suit that we are missing.

I don't doubt the stat, but do you have a source I can look at while I pretend to work?

I'm angry for you but not even US-american.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

He is in my heart, always.

I've had to unfortunately have some business calls with pharmaceutical orgs in the past (had to have the exploratory calls, but was able to not do business with them) and they still speak with giddy amazement when discussing how ridiculously inflated their profit margin is in the US for the same services in other parts of the world. They are the one's profiting from it and even they say it's outrageous!

I love how the (alleged) implies that if he didn't kill Brian Thompson, he's not our boy.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Innocent until proven guilty right, right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

regular until proven hero in this case

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, but I mean that saying he's "allegedly our boy" implies that if he's found innocent, he stops being our boy so he's only our boy if he did actually kill Thompson.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Courts do NOT provide verdicts of innocence, you are found either guilty or not guilty.....and neither verdict guarantees innocence or guilt.

Haha, americans already forgot and your life is getting more fucked by the day. No martyr is going to save you if you’re too distracted to want to be saved.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

I would never forget our guy!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

I like Bernie but the full extent of my empathy for luigi is I hope its consentual when he gets fucked in prison.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Imagine being poor and siding with the rich

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Nah thats backwards, Luigi was Rich and sided with himself.

Or did you mean Bernie? I think Bernie is pretty cool, personally.

You're a terrible conversationalist

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

You're an excellent troll.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You're hoping he has good sex in prison?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well he's 100% going to have sex in prison so I do hope it is good, yes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ain't no prisoner gonna mess with him without his say so. He got a standing ovation when he showed up.
