@caroljsroth Would rather focus on early stage socialism. Thx

Anyone using the goofy phrase “late-stage capitalism” should be required to explain what happens in late-stage socialism and late-stage communism.

@KATYSaccitizen 💡

If Gov. Newsom was not running a new $20 million grift through a $77 million "non-profit," the state could just provide coupons for free diapers to new mothers. But then taxpayer money couldn't be disappeared into a non-profit.

@HistoryBoomer 👍

You start a burger joint: Boomer Burgers. You hire 10 people to run it, and it makes money. Ok? You branch out and build 2 more joints. You make more money. You keep building new BBs. Dozens. Hundreds. Thousands. At what point does the money you're making become "unearned"?

This is the ultimate midwit healthcare take. No, 32 countries have not “figured out” universal healthcare. The UK has “free” healthcare, and roughly 1 in 3 cancer patients in England still fail to start treatment within 62 days of urgent referral. Canada has “free” healthcare, and the median wait for neurosurgical treatment is around a year. Australia has “free” healthcare, and over half the country still buys private insurance despite paying for a public universal system with their taxes. Switzerland has universal coverage, because residents are required to buy private insurance. There is no government system where benevolent bureaucrats tuck you in at night with a warm blanket and an MRI appointment. The actual lesson from other wealthy countries is not “they figured it out.” America’s system has huge problems. Our prices are insane, insurance markets are distorted, and hospital systems are cartelized. Our regulations make care more expensive than it needs to be. Yet we still guarantee access to even the 8% who don’t have coverage. We give easy routes to qualify for medicaid for those with disabilities. Pretending the rest of the world solved healthcare because they slapped the word “universal” on a rationing scheme is not analysis. It is bumper sticker policy for people who think access means having a card in your wallet while you wait a year to see the doctor you need.

@3YearLetterman Have they read the OT?

@GretaVanFleet 😬

We’re back, baby!

If you want to get rid of flopping the solution is incredibly simple. $10k fine for your first offense $25k fine for your second offense $50k fine for a third offense $100k fine for your fourth offense 3 game suspension for fifth offense Make the NBA watchable again

@realpeteyb123 @txsalth2o 😂

Ok… most of you know I was in the organic baby formula business, but what you don’t know is I dabbled in diapers as well. I also know this baby2baby “non profit” and have had past interactions with them.. I’ll leave that out for now.. Let’s dive into this absolute grifting nonsense. Prepare to be shocked. California is about to spend $20 million of taxpayer money to give 100,000 newborns 400 diapers each through Baby2Baby. Do the math with me: 100,000 babies × 400 diapers = 40 million diapers $20,000,000 ÷ 40,000,000 = $0.50 per diaper!!!!! Now walk into any Costco in California and you can buy the same quality diapers for .12 to .15 cents each! That’s $48 to $60 for 400 diapers. So the state is paying 8–10x more per diaper than a regular family buying in bulk. They could’ve just handed every low-income new mom $100 cash and told her to go to Costco. She’d get more diapers, better ones if she wanted, and still have money left for formula, wipes, or whatever the hell she actually needs. But nah… that wouldn’t let Gavin and his connected “nonprofit” girls running the show there cut ribbons, take photos, do galas and be friends with celebrities and brag about the “first-in-the-nation” program while skimming their cut for “administration” and “partnerships.” This is peak government stupidity!!! Spend way more money to feel good and look good, instead of just trusting parents with their own damn money. We’re not helping babies. We’re funding another bloated nonprofit-government grift. Math doesn’t lie. The diaper math is brutal. What a scam and a joke!!!!!

Time in Federal Government… Alexander Hamilton: 5 years George Washington: 8 years Thomas Jefferson: 10 years John Adams: 12 years Bernie Sanders: 35 years Nancy Pelosi: 39 years Mitch McConnell: 41 years Chuck Schumer: 45 years It explains everything. Founders vs Grifters

@RealBrittHughes Sounds good

This sounds cool. But wait. 400 diapers will last a family with a newborn approximately five weeks. The program will cost the state approx. $12.4 million this year alone. That money will be funneled through a company called Baby2Baby, which will then provide their branded diapers to 400 participating in hospitals (California has over 500 hospitals in total.) Meaning that instead of lowering taxes and letting families keep their own money to buy essentials like diapers, California takes their money, pumps it through a “nonprofit” that has overhead and whose CEO made $240,000 in 2024, to provide a “free” service available only in certain locations, and that you could have bought yourself for much cheaper.

@bonchieredstate She must be protected

The confidence with which she speaks false, ahistorical nonsense is always something. There's a certain, almost psychotic nature to it.

@AndrewDBailey Easily the dumbest league of the major four

Tanking has existed in the NBA, in some form or another, for decades. It built some of the best teams of all time. Now, the league wants us to think it's some existential threat that deserves more attention than... * multiple players involved in betting schemes; * a head coach indicted for participation in rigged poker games; * flopping absolutely dominating the conversation among 29 fan bases every time the league's best team is on national TV; * Kawhi Leonard and the Clippers appearing to circumvent the salary cap; * load management; * star players constantly being injured; * absurd interpretations of traveling, carrying, etc.; * a collective bargaining agreement that has annihilated teams' ability to build organically; and * the inaccessibility of games (soaring ticket prices, need for multiple subscriptions, etc.).
