🚨 IT GETS WORSE: One of the men charged after a woman was thrown off a bridge to her death reportedly posted a video years earlier from the same bridge titled, “Disposing of a body.”
The three suspects face between 6 and 30 years in prison.

How bout if we hate suck-ups like the Toronto Star who carry water for this inhuman system we're forced to live in?

Don't hate Elon Musk for being a trillionaire. Canada needs more ambitious, wealthy entrepreneurs trib.al/ats1m91

@d0wnsideofme Ffs!! He literally does not take the money from anyone! There isn’t a limited pool of money we all have to share. If a farmer grows 1 trillion potatoes, he doesn’t take them from anyone - there are just more potatoes. Elon creates MORE money. He isn’t taking it from anyone.
English
who’s money do you think a trillionaire is taking? no one’s?
not only that, the snap receipient instantly puts that money back into the local economy whereas elon musk hides the majority of his wealth in tax safe hideouts so the average person gets poorer and poorer
not only that, but are you paying him via all the tax dollars his company takes in

Well, the trillionaire uses his own money while the snap recipient uses mine.

If Elon Musk paid my ultra-millionaire wealth tax, we could pay for child care for all three and four year olds in America.

@pgklee @LesNessman1500 @travelingflying The frustrating thing is people hear that and think you are saying that women are inherently worse referees, and no amount of logic or explaining seems to make them understand. If you restrict the pool of options based on irrelevant criteria, the standard drops.

International women’s soccer. To referee international matches, you need to be a FIFA referee. Males significantly (at least tenfold) outnumber female referees. Both women and men can referee men’s matches, but only women can referee women’s matches. Women’s matches not surprisingly have suboptimal refereeing.

@Irina_exh Pretty much all of them if you’re willing to work hard and take risks.

@LesNessman1500 @travelingflying It has nothing to do with race. If you introduce a criteria that isn’t related to the task - skin, gender, or hat - the end result will be worse. The minimum requirement being the same doesn’t change that. You are lowering the ceiling, not the floor.
English
@LesNessman1500 @travelingflying Sigh…You are picking a team. The minimum standard to be considered is 1 year of experience. You have 100 people to pick from. 5 are wearing a red hat. You must pick at least 1 person in a red hat. Result: standards not lowered, but the team is very likely weaker anyway.

@GamzeeAlour8992 It would take 5 minutes of effort to learn how to wrong they are, but they can’t even be bothered to do that. That just screech and whine and demand a share of imaginary money. Irredeemable.

If Elon Musk lost 99% of his wealth he would STILL have $10 BILLION! Tax the fucking rich. We need a wealth tax. Nobody should be a billionaire, let alone a fucking trillionaire when you got people that can't afford to eat, can't afford rent, homelessness, etc.

@hasanthehun He didn’t say controlling, you dog torturing liar, he said ruining. And if you didn’t believe that, you wouldn’t spend your entire life actively avoiding the people he’s talking about.
English
multimillionaire business owner who sits in filth and talks into smelly microphone for a living tells the working class that it’s not the top 2% of wealth that is controlling society, but the bottom 2%.

Asmongold gives his BASED opinion, says: "You're not being oppressed by the top 2% of society. You're being oppressed by the bottom 2% of society instead 👀 "People ain't gunna like this one: the bottom 2% of society have caused all of the manifest problems in your lives”

Mark, I appreciate your thoughtful and sincere approach on. Are you familiar with Alison Galvani work at Yale. She shows that extending Medicare to 55 is not that expensive.
It would save costs because Medicare has lower administrative costs. People aged 55-64 some of the most expensive in private market and you would reduce spending on them.
You also need Medicare to have more leverage to negotiate for drug prices --something you have led on.
Yes, there is a cost but having progressive taxation to pay for it means that working and middle class Americans would be paying less than on their premiums and employers would be paying less than they would premiums.
You eliminate a lit of the middlemen costs like hospital facility fees, private insurance executive cost, administrative and advertising costs, high mark up on drugs etc.
Do you agree that a single payer system would be better for costs? Are you open to expanding Medicare? What would it take to get you on board?
If you made the case and on the administration, it would help!

It was a different healthcare world in the 1990s. The same issues i mentioned apply. Every single one of them. The processes, care mechanisms and economics for every company and person that touches the HC system we have today, would have to change. All that you have done is taken a group of people who are more likely to get sick, relative to a younger population, and put that burden on the taxpayers. What are you going to do for taxes to pay for them? Medicare has a 255b cash reserve. (FYI, non profit hospitals have a 280b cash reserve) and is expected to require a 20pct or more premium and tax increase in 2033, with a most likely reduction in services. And again. Those numbers are always wrong. Do you plan on saying that when you hit 55 or 60 your taxes go up ? Do you plan on increasing from 2.9 percent for those at the age that qualify. Or increasing the taxes on everyone, to only pay for that age group and losing every younger voter ? Politicians need to learn that IDEOLOGY IS NOT A STRATEGY You have to put yourself in the shoes of everyone that is impacted, which for HC is everyone. Then you have to put together a plan and figure out what needs to be done to get from where we are to where we want to be, and who will do it. You have to recognize that our culture, politics, size , expectations, costs to educate doctors, desire to extend life as long as we can, our entrepreneurial culture that is always investing in new drugs and technologies to solve what once seemed like unsolveable problems, is unlike every other country in the world. If you can't recognize our strengths and differences, you won't be able to put together a plan, let alone legislation. That's where both parties always fail. They try to use ideology to legislate. Which makes it very easy for money to sway them. Because, when you don't have a plan, and you don't understand the details of what it actually takes to disrupt the status quo and create change , you are willing to defer to the people that give you the most money. I've been doing nothing but healthcare every day. This shit is opague, convoluted, dominated by huge companies that have no interest in anything but getting bigger, and if they help a few people along the way. So be it If you think this legislation, in any way shape or form scares them, you are wrong. They are laughing at both sides because they know they can buy them , mislead them, or sue them, so that nothing changes. The same thing they do to their customers But I will say. I truly do appreciate that you engage with me in an honest fashion. I know you want to do the right thing. But I can't say it enough times Ideology is not a strategy.

@nirajxdev So many companies hire loads of people to work on a simple problem that has been made complex through terrible management. I think if you work at one of these places, you’re done. Not because AI will replace you, but because you weren’t really needed to begin with.

@sharon_wisner This government doesn’t look like it will trust us to vote. They think they know better. If we vote “wrong” they won’t give up power.

Obviously Starmer's Labour is wrong about restrictive internet. However, the next govt can simply undo this & restore freedoms again. So it won't be forever

@MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski This level of stupidity is so embarrassing. If somebody else grows a trillion potatoes, you personally still have the same number of potatoes you always did.
If millions of other people depend on that man for potatoes, taking away his ability to grow potatoes would be stupid.

Kyle Kulinski: “Tax every penny in net worth somebody has over $999M at 100%. It’s a no billionaires tax, no trillionaires tax. We’ll send you a fucking plaque in the mail that says I won at capitalism. We already have Gilded Age level income and wealth inequality. I’m surprised people aren’t breaking out the motherfucking guillotines already”
