In this country, some folks can defraud the Medicare system of $205 million and walk away with a clean slate, as long as the right political favors are in place; all while congressional Republicans lecture the public about fraud and abuse. Wow

@kairyssdal.bsky.social said "There is no tax cut, in the history of tax cuts that has ever paid for itself", MarketPlace 7/1/2025. It’s beyond shameful that these lawmakers won’t learn from data or history.

There are 100k students in med school each year. Room and board is about 100k per year. For 10b a year, med school could be free. We would see a wholesale change in the profession, career paths and the cost of care.

It would change the economics for every financial decision doctors
Republican plans to cap student borrowing could shatter an everyday profession
One GOP senator said anyone paying more than $100K to go to med school is "making a huge mistake." But the median cost of attending one is more than double that for the class of 2025.

Prediction:
ChatGPT “graduates” will flood job markets, with no skills to speak of on their own.
Employers will (belatedly) realise they need people who know how to play chess on their own, rather than operate a chess-playing machine.
“Autochthonous” human skills will become most prized commodity.

Technically WE THE PEOPLE are the boss and these buffoons work of us. It should be illegal to call yourself a government official for talking bad about the boss. 😤How could they call themselves American ?

"The youth clubs are self-described white nationalist activist groups for young men 18 and younger who train in combat sports and participate in extreme right propaganda activities" What could possibly go wrong ? Will HHS focus on these groups ?🤨😤
