The price has gone up 26 TIMES since 2006.
Yet, @davidarmstrongx.bsky.social found a deposition where a top exec admits the drug has ALWAYS cost just $.25 to make.

Goodbye Tesla; hello Polestar.
Someone at Polestar had the clever idea of creating a “Tesla Conquest” incentive that knocked an extra $5,000 off the price of the car for anyone switching from a Tesla.

This is the most interesting recent piece I’ve read about the economy as a whole. Mr. Ludwig’s credentials are sound, and his numbers make sense. Take these together with a RAND Corp study about income inequality over the last 40 years, and things become very clear.

Voters Were Right About the Economy. The Data Was Wrong.
Here’s why unemployment is higher, wages are lower and growth less robust than government statistics suggest.

Rep. James Mann in 1974, while casting his vote to impeach President Nixon:
"If there is no accountability, another president will feel free to do as he chooses. But the next time there may be no watchman in the night."

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
