Wow. Looks like these companies had the capacity to self regulation the whole time.
Luigi got them shook.
North Carolina’s Atrium Health says it will forgive the debts of 11,500 people — less than a week after NBC News reported that the company has aggressively pursued former patients’ medical debts, placing liens on their homes to collect on bills.

US media: we have to reestablish trust with the American people.

Also US media; we should gaslight the public who cheers a young man murdering a ceo who murdered thousands and bankrupted their families based on profit motive because he had a family.

I gotta say, I love this 20 book #Booksky #Bookchallenge. So many great books. So much word of mouth sharing without really sharing anything.

Violence is never the answer.

Unless you look at the Revolutionary War. The Civil War. World War II. Any encounter with a bully. Any manner of self defense…

Ok fine look it just sounds good because it keeps us from revolting against the ruling class…

Since Johnny Doughnut Vance is so insistent that one must be restricted to what they were assigned at birth, I must remind myself to refer to him as Johnny Doughnut- ahem. Excuse me. James Donald Bowman. All articles should do likewise.

If the wealthy find pulling oneself up by the bootstraps so admirable, why do they oppose an inheritance tax?

Yes I advocate seizing all billionaire assets to leave them penniless, but only because they convinced me they are all self-made, and can surely pull themselves up by their bootstraps and replicate their previous success.
