I guess that's the free market at work when government efficiency (which is quite inneffeicent) is still better value than privately ran healthcare.
40% of tax revenue is quite the random guess when the real answer is 15% (give or take 1-2%)
English

You left out the part where the US Federal Government spends $2 trillion per year on Medicare/Medicaid which is almost 40% of tax revenue. Further the 'private' (not private) market is required by Obamacare to purchase insurance. It's not a free market when the government requires you to buy a product even if it is from a private business.
English

Scott - the government can't do anything economically "efficiently" - if the government is doing it, the cost will be higher, and the quality lower than what a free market could provide.

'Is it too late' to fix the NDIS is the wrong question. It's not a question of 'timing'. It's a question of 'structure'. The NDIS, as a three-cornered market, is irrevocably broken. It should be blown up *and replaced* so people get care and support they need, economically.
English

@TMFScottP @AussieAnarchist American health system vs Australian health system shows the differences between private (for profit) and government ran.
When the government owned the electricity, I heard that it was a lot lower than today's prices too.
English

@AussieAnarchist Only if the free market will provide it to the required quality and price.
Privatised employment services have been a debacle.
Not everything should be private.

@Hazy_VT @autastar @SamanthaTaghoy It ups the rate of LGBT incidents which boosts funding and further pushes the narrative instead of having the indigenous population having its own statistics regarding an issue
English

@autastar @SamanthaTaghoy As a indigenous women, this angers me...As you say, they are victims not a sexuality or identity.
Women murdered apparently belongs in the same group as LGBT?? Make it make sense....

@gubbastronaut @aakashgupta I'm failing to consider your feelings on the subject
English

@Da_one_Duck @aakashgupta What is it that you don’t understand?
English

Those "grill scrapings" are what happens when ground beef hits 450°F steel and the proteins undergo the Maillard reaction at maximum surface area.
A spherical patty sitting on a grill touches maybe 15% of its surface. A smash burger pressed flat against a plancha touches 90%+. That means 6x more beef surface is simultaneously converting amino acids and reducing sugars into hundreds of new flavor compounds. The browning you're looking at is roughly 500 to 1,000 distinct molecules that didn't exist before the meat hit the steel.
The crispy lace around the edges is rendered fat that seeped out under pressure, hit the hot steel, and fried the protein strands from the outside in. Those thin edges are essentially beef chips. They shatter when you bite them, which creates a textural contrast against the still-juicy center that a thick pub burger physically cannot produce.
The flat geometry also solves a heat transfer problem. A thick patty has a massive temperature gradient from surface to center. You either overcook the outside waiting for the middle, or pull it with a raw center. A smash burger is thin enough that the entire patty reaches optimal temperature within 60 to 90 seconds per side. There's no gradient to manage.
George Motz documented over 300 burger restaurants for his book and found that nearly every legendary regional burger in America, from the Midwest butter burger to the Oklahoma onion burger, uses this exact technique. Thin, pressed, maximum contact with a hot flat surface.
The ones that look the worst on camera consistently taste the best. The visual mess is the flavor.

This isn’t a burger. This is the stuff you clean off of the grill before you make a burger

@Trapstarrre0mh @CENA_17TH @TroyKeywon @EricJoh78576780 I see you took that personal when I said smashing machine.
English

@Da_one_Duck @CENA_17TH @TroyKeywon @EricJoh78576780 They hate just to hate we all know rock is what cena always wanted to be he was begging for the rock to come back for seven years saying rock dont love the company just to take it personal on rock when he came back but it was only business lmao cena is a punk
English

He roasted Roman Reigns and his favoritism
and the pushes he got from McMahon
He mocked The Rock saying his time is over
and that he’s no longer a Hollywood star
He called Vince a crazy old man
who used to mistreat Punk back in the day
He went after TKO and their ticket pricing policies
and even took shots at Pat McAfee along with them
For the history books Punk 🐐🐐🐐🐐

@gubbastronaut @aakashgupta You get a burger with two smash patties.
English

@Da_one_Duck @aakashgupta But I want a burger when I do a burger. The sensation of a meat patty. Your feelings are irrelevant for my expected burger experience.
English

@gubbastronaut @aakashgupta It's better than a normal meat patty when you have two smash patties.
English

@Da_one_Duck @aakashgupta But I want a burger when I do a burger. The sensation of a meat patty.
English

@gubbastronaut @aakashgupta Two smash patties in one burger works well.
It tastes better than it looks
English

@aakashgupta All those words and it's still just the stuff you clean off the grill before you make your burger. I like meat in my burgers, not burnt scrapings.
English

@WrestleconAndiz 32 defences in four years is 8 per year.
Punk is only slightly under Roman's yearly average during his last reign.
The title match in two weeks will be 4x matches in 6 months, which is equal to reigns' average.
English

The straight hypocrisy from people on here is insane 💀
They tell you Punk needs to retain because they don’t want a part timer champion 😂
No you guys hate Roman and don’t want him as champion
Someone who elevated wwe and the titles he gets lol
Punk has only defended the title 3 times since winning it in November …

@Bihgdawg @WretchedKeywork @DijakFYE @WWE It's discord, he's probably in other chats you fictitiously don't like as well.
English

@WretchedKeywork @DijakFYE @WWE My som already soent hours chatting in that discord im going to have to talk to him and see if anything weird happened…. Im absolutely horrified
English

I don’t have the slightest clue who this person is. He bought a Cameo. If he’s a piece of shit he can go fuck himself.
Mcgrubba@Mcgrubbba
Nova bought a cameo from @DijakFYE FORCING him to unknowingly endorse a predators “business”
English

Unpopular opinion:
If you want promos, look for The Rock
If you want wrestling, look for Kurt Angle
If you want workhorse, look for Seth Rollins
If you want aura, look for John Cena
If you want storytelling, look for Triple H
If you want dominance, look for Hulk Hogan
If you want leadership, look for Bret Hart
If you want character, look for The Undertaker
If you want consistency, look for Shawn Michaels
If you want trash talk, look for CM Punk
But if you want ALL IN ONE…
Look at Roman Reigns ☝🏻 🐐🔥

@4QPLATA_O_PLOMO @therapyworksBC @allenanalysis Crying also has a definition of "say something loudly in an excited or anguished tone of voice"
English

@Da_one_Duck @therapyworksBC @allenanalysis Don’t remember him crying, but libs do twist everything to fit their retard agenda

@4QPLATA_O_PLOMO @therapyworksBC @allenanalysis Like how trump cried when he didn't get the peace prize?

@blockjock2017 @CardanoSentinel It could get a lot better if people/one person at the top doesn't blindly attack members of a community.
Sure some of the comments were misconstrued but that doesn't mean that they should be attacked for that, or even worse when someone has a differing opinion, like whale did.
English

So what I am saying is that yes you are going about it the wrong way, I want it to stop but ultimately it never will, I have been here long enough to know that there will always be a new crop of aspiring grifters/evil geniuses coming here or existing ones compromising their morals and principals and taking $$ here. Some of them dont even know every part of them is being compromised from a morals and standards pov until they have that opportunity for a windfall and say fuck it.
There are also those who have made mistakes and unwittingly (maybe deep down inside they knew) took $$$ that they really didn't deserve, had a opportunity to be honest and instead took the windfall and said nothing, slowly over time became frustrated because no one was (in their minds) listening to them and decided to take a opportunity to get over on someone else why? because everyone else was doing it, or was part of a group and didnt pull their weight for a bit got left out then the team was succesful and they then became a villain in the space because they felt wronged, or came in with a victim mentality from the beginning and bought into a token that the team then rugged or slow rugged everyone and then set out to do the same to everyone else, or even felt so harmed by it that they decided to make multiple anon acct to hide behind and go after them 24/7 on X. The most upfront and aggregious in my mind is where people used "code is law" to take other peoples assets simply because they were either to trusting/ignorant/new or easily usable by the developers that saw this as a normal thing to do. Hell I had someone in a space not understand that taking other peoples $$ becasue they were "dumb enough" to put there hard earn assets into a OBVIOUS rug". Then after I explained a scenario where one of the people you rugged just happened to be your neighbor would that be OK? and he still didnt get what I was saying, @RickMcCracken had to explain it to him in a way he apparently could understand (still in english btw). Once Rick was done I explained if the guy came over and knocked on your door and you said go pound sand I am not responsible for your actions and he then proceeded to beat your ass? He actually seemed somehow offended by it (this is the psychological effect of "Devs taking back what is theirs from the evil centralized government and when they couldn't find any senators or corporate people to tak e their $$$ they just turned on regular people who didn't knw any better)
Do you see where I am going with this? Do you see that almost everyone here has had some hand in either directly or indirectly causing someone else harm? I know there are people who have done others wrong here but I am not sure tearing down those who have made mistakes but are actually building here, putting their time and $$$ in here need to be called out publicly.
You are going to do what you want but atp, this chain doesnt have many people left building on it, most outside $$$ is non existent, were spending our treasury for the first time on actual investment proposals with both the @OrionFund and the Liquidity Fund from @ElderM and I am not remotely interested in putting the dagger in the top ten Ceasers in our space that you feel need to be outted, NOW is not the time.

@BEACNpool @shaggyrax @masatoalexander @stral_astro0001 Accountability only occurs when there are enough people who care about accountability.
English

As long as people keep pushing for accountability, there's a path forward.
Ignore advice from foundation paid staff, wish they were gone TBH, or treasury recipients, these are structural conflicts.
Our spend ratio is draining the Treasury to the point it will be depleted and the people of Cardano need to imagine it is THEIRS, you would never allow your own personal savings to deplete like this! Protect your savings/investment account!!!

@BWessel9009 @HappyT1meHarry @MG3809 @SeanRossSapp When punk finally did something with WWE it wasn't the WWE paying him either for that tv role.
English

@HappyT1meHarry @MG3809 @SeanRossSapp Not entirely true he had turned down offers even showed up on WWE backstage and still didn’t return to weekly programming. He expressed interest in a wrestling return but didn’t until AEW because of a combination of WWE not wanting him and him not wanting to work for Vince.
English

@BaystreetBrian @ByronMiralda1 @1017foreva @WrestleTalk_TV They should have never changed his gimmick when he moved up from NXT. Sure it may have needed a tweak but not what they did.
Black and Vega are in Kross' spot and characters atm while Kross would have done a lot better job
English

Diamond Dallas Page says Killer Kross (Karrion Kross) told him that WWE offered him more money to re-sign before his departure last year, but it was "mid-card money":
"Karrion Kross, Killer Kross, that guy, he’s got it all. The look, the rap, the promo. The s**t he did at the end, I just couldn’t believe they let him leave.
"Everybody thought it was a work, but he had told me that they had offered him more money, but it was kind of like mid-card money.
"F**k that, he believed in himself. He’s making more money than he’s ever made right now."

@BarkingToad @100YearsAgoLive Damn. Makes today in history interesting, today.

@100YearsAgoLive it says here, their hunting dog attacked the bird, the lads were defending the dog

English

In Australia, 16-year-old Phillip McClean and his 13-year-old brother discover a southern cassowary on their property and decide to club it to death.
Instead, the bird bests the boys and rips out Phillip’s jugular, killing him.
This is the first known violent interaction between a human and a southern cassowary.
