- Epstein Client list. - Economy in shambles. - Yet ANOTHER war. - Zero pro gun legislation. - No dismantling of income tax. - No dismantling of board of education. - No tariff refunds to Americans. - Zero arrests of Fauci, Hilary, Biden, agents. Rude awakening? If your definition of strengthening the republic is simply “owning the libs” it’s short sighted. “Libs” are other Americans who are ALSO impacted by a weakening dollar, more money printing and inflation. An appreciation for America is great, however doing it as more serious issues are abound? A pyrrhic “victory” at best. ESPECIALLY when it’s based on baseless celebration at the expense and ridicule of other Americans who also don’t know the three major branches of govt.

Graham Platner and Darializa Chevalier represent a cancer within the Democratic Party. If we let this cancer grow, our party will become a party of hatred, intolerance, and anti-Americanism.

McDonald's announced they're replacing cashiers with kiosks in California just after the $20 minimum wage kicked in. Shocking to absolutely no one who understands basic economics. When you artificially price labor above its market value, employers find substitutes. Machines, automation, or they simply eliminate positions entirely. The teenagers who desperately need that first job experience? Gone. The single mother trying to re-enter the workforce after years away? Priced out by someone with more skills. You've just created a legal barrier that prevents the least skilled workers from competing on the one thing they had going for them: willingness to work for less while they build experience. Politicians pat themselves on the back for "helping workers" while unemployment among young minorities hits double digits. The workers who keep their jobs benefit (temporarily), but the invisible victims, those who never get hired in the first place, don't make headlines. Economics doesn't care about your good intentions.

Republicans, are you proud to be an American? 90% say yes. Democrats, 29% say yes. I’d like to know what other country the rest of Democrats would love to live in. Our system may not be perfect, but damn sure is the best one.

Leftists really think a trillion dollars was deposited into Elon Musk’s checking account. They have no idea how businesses or the market work.

Let's play a little game: Say the leftists get their way, and "too much money" for any one person to have is defined. So, they eliminate the trillionaires. Then they eliminate the billionaires. Then, the millionaires. Before you know it, making six figures per household is "too much". Don't ever play into their hands.

This may sound counterintuitive, but the best place to start a path to Universal Healthcare is with big companies. Our biggest companies are really bad dealing with the economics of their healthcare benefits. They get ripped off. A lot. They are not functionally set up to address both cost and quality of outcomes. They take on all the cost risk. But. They hire companies affiliated with huge HC conglomerates to manage it all for them. Those conglomerates keep the huge companies as much in the dark about actual costs as they do the 20 person start up I can’t tell you how many times I have talked to companies with tens and hundreds of thousands of lives who had no idea whether the price the company administering their medical benefits paid a hospital for a surgery and in patient stay, was the same price they billed the company. They have no idea at all. In many cases, they only receive a weekly invoice for millions of dollars for their medical and pharmacy benefits and they have no idea if it accurately reflects their contract, or, if they got the best price , or if there is a spread and more Some try to audit, but the claims data doesn’t incorporate the actual amount paid to the care provider. Nor does it have all the fields necessary. Or even worse, sometimes they only get their weekly invoice and don’t have full claims available to them Still, despite this they “ trust” these big conglomerates to act as middlemen and rip them off. Why don’t they switch ? This is the conundrum they find themselves in. They have tens or hundreds of thousands of employees and their families they cover. The law of big numbers say a lot of those folks are in very messy situations. They dont want to go through the pain, fear and uncertainty of moving from their current source of care. And the HR department knows the emotional switching cost of moving away from the incumbent is incredibly high. They don’t have enough people working in HR to deal with it. Those same big companies rarely have more than one person acting as a “HealthCare CFO “, responsive for making sure all the pricing is accurate or negotiated. And of course, no big company wants to admit they are getting ripped off. And none will violate their confidentiality clause of their contracts. I literally tell them to put a pdf of their HC contracts into their LLMs and just ask it “where am I getting ripped off “. Not perfect. But the list is always very long and eye opening So what should they do. The word of the week is “Carve Out”. These companies are big enough they can ask to Carve Out anything they want. I tell them to use their Carve Out to direct contract with transparent surgery centers and providers. Maybe just hop or knee replacements to start. Hopefully CostPlusDrugs.com too :) This is the starting point

We’re witnessing the end of the Left in realtime

Public education has been an abject failure. One of our greatest wastes of money.

It's you leftists who are to blame. Over a $1 trillion of SpaceX valuation comes from a future "orbital data-center" business. That business is only viable because of the political opposition to terrestrial data-centers. The more you oppose data-centers, the more you repeat misinformation about tax-breaks and water, the richer you make @ElonMusk (pbuh).

Do you really need to know transparency to the general ledger? Do corporate entities demand that when they purchase suites for the Mavs? If there are two hospitals, one offers knee replacement 90% cheaper than the other, do you really need more transparency?

Absolute transparency down to the general ledger level. I wanted everyone to see what it cost so people could help us get smarter. I wanted to compete on quality and price , focused on direct contracts. No insurance unless the carrier treated every claim as an invoice to be paid. Direct sales to companies 340b markups from cost, of only 15 pct No consultants. Hire people that are great at their jobs and can do the work. A discussion on whether we would spend the money on getting approved for government programs. All the approvals are expensive and may not have been worth it. We could publish quality measures and let 3rd parties audit them. Run the economics like a real business , run the care like every patient is family.
