The idea to have NIL transfer fees for all sports is fantastic btw. Should be implemented asap.

Iowa's News Now@iowasnewsnow
Republicans advance Iowa’s “Medical Ethics Defense Act,” allowing providers to refuse care based on beliefs, while critics warn it could lead to discrimination. More details here: cbs2iowa.com/news/local/bil…

Meanwhile, the Senate just voted to block an effort by Chuck Schumer to hold a vote on a standalone bill to pay TSA workers.
Ninth time Republicans have blocked pay for TSA workers, per Schumer's office.

@EconBerger @ModeledBehavior But Guy...sometimes all you want is trash pizza after a long day lol
English
@ModeledBehavior Not only that, the pizza in a lot of these places is worse than wha you can buy frozen in the supermarket for less money
English
Pizza making has been fully automated. This has been true for years.
But if you go into a pizza shop across the country, it's mostly still people doing it by hand.
Can automate != will automate

This would require an inflation rate of 12.2% every year for 20 years.

Because at the rate we are going, that $1 million will be worth $100,000 in 20 years!

Amazing how there is always a promo when I am looking.

@LeeCEldridge Some progressives preferring it doesn’t mean that’s what Democratic leadership wanted—especially since they couldn’t even get the votes for a public option. That alone shows the party wasn’t aligned on anything close to single-payer.
English
@Knightwolfbr Well... both. They were willing to settle for a public option during debates (BTW those debates were within his own party) because that actually moves the ACA even further towards single payer. Which was the end goal of both Obama and the DEMs who wrote the ACA.
English
Lol. Many of us were critical of the ACA and called it a step towards single payer. The left and the media said we were wrong. Here Obama admits it. Is this the first time? I don’t know.
But we were right. Again.
Barack Obama@BarackObama
The day the Affordable Care Act passed was one of my proudest moments as president, because it meant that millions of Americans would have access to health care, some for the first time. The ACA also prevented insurance companies from denying people with pre-existing conditions coverage, allowed young people under the age of 26 to remain on their parents’ plan, expanded Medicaid, and so much more. But the ACA was always meant to be a first step. We still have to do more to expand access and make health care more affordable for everyone.
English
@LeeCEldridge Lee, are you talking about Dems or Obama because your thread started as a victory lap about Obama admitting something that:
1) He said since the beginning ("first step")
2) Was not what he wanted (he wanted public option)
So who are we talking about before be go into this?
English
@Knightwolfbr eye roll
Andre let's at least have an honest conversation here. What is the end result that the DEMs who pushed for the ACA wanted? It's OK to say it.
English
@LeeCEldridge A first step toward fixing issues with the US Healthcare system. He was also a fan of the public option though that ended up getting cut out of it.

Personally dragging a team with less talent and only 1 other WNBA prospect to two back to back championships is more impressive than performing well on a stacked team.

The Dems proposed a bill to pay TSA btw. GOP voted against.

🚨HOLY CRAP!!! The Atlanta TSA line has now stretched to a stunning 153 minute-wait-time... AT 6AM IN THE MORNING!!!! The line is WRAPPING AROUND BAGGAGE CLAIM!!! THIS IS PURE INSANITY!!!!!!

It is truly incredible how much power the party that isn’t in power has.

Democrats defunded the United States Coast Guard.

@Knightwolfbr Top media outfits still make more money that top Kalshi traders.
English
I am not even worried about "writ[ing] more informative and interesting stories". With Polymarket and Kalshi allowing betting on future events...having insider information is a big deal.
Robin Hanson@robinhanson
Many worried about "insider trading", but few worry about "insider journalism". But is it fair that reporters with better connections write more informative and interesting stories? Shouldn't we make sure news stories are only based on public info equally open to all reporters?

The GOP keeps thinking that the opposition to the SAVE Act is the requirement to have an ID when the opposition is to what is considered a legitimate ID and how to obtain one.
