Are you sure that includes oncology? I thought it was just emergency rooms.

They can write whatever they want on the waiver, but it won't hold up against provably illegal retaliation.

That's the beauty of it! Nobody will ever see what we lost to the deadweight loss of his monopoly. We only see the profits he got from it, a portion of which he generously returns.

But we can hear the whistle too. Being against diversity, equality, and inclusion is pretty blatant mask-off stuff.

This for all shareholders, all the time. Their laws might care about the corporate veil but we don't.

I haven't seen that much pride in a fallacy since last time I went to church!

That's such a low bar for "rich". The difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is about a billion dollars.

It is pretty awesome. They have a discount and accept Lightning, both of which should be common but aren't. But again that's super anecdotal evidence because I live in a major city and looked for them.

Crypto in Russia kinda is still an option, they're #7 globally. But I apologize for my tone, it's easy to say which choice was better in hindsight.

But it has led to Republican voters getting what they wanted. Roe v Wade is no more. We're getting tariffs that career politicians know are harmful.

So a leftist equivalent would support Medicare For All, which is very popular with the public but unpopular with career politicians.

You're asking what other option they had out of one side of your mouth, while criticizing that option out the other side.

Why is my pizza place anecdotally accepting crypto important? If my answer was supposed to be "nothing [I just don't want it seized because I was born in an imperialist oligarchy too]", what was going to be your response?

Since you're not offering an alternative yourself, it sounds like you're suggesting they stay on the Ruble. Which hurts the environment even more (encourages consumption) and worsens inequality even more (Cantillon effect).

If you do have a better option, then I'd like to hear that!
