They keep trying to cargo cult Singapore by creating universal HSAs with some government contributions. But they’re ignoring the public hospitals, price controls, and direct subsidies that also make up the Singaporean system.

I remember reading that if Southern whites voted like whites in OH (not exactly a “blue state”) Dems would be winning by 10+ points in every election.

Public Housing Authorities, especially the one in NYC, really have the capacity to *make* a market through their sheer size.

Of course, Elon doesn’t get all the other aspects of The Culture that makes slapdrones a realistic option for crime.

CANT they just order another Bond from the Tleilaxu?

It feels like they are cargo-curling Singaporean style HSAs without all the other parts and pieces.

Please take Schumer’s job. He sucks. You don’t.

Fuck you. As someone who’s job depends on the Federal government, you just sold me out.

Gotta be honest, if Manchin can pull another miracle and get the WV Senate seat I’ll gladly accept him being so g-d dang annoying.

You also ignore the GST. Which is a major tax.

Yeah, AI companies do not pose the same systemic risk to the economy as the big banks and investment firms. They just aren’t comparable, in either importance or size.

Why do you think that? Major financial institutions are very different (and much more important) than AI firms. And at any rate, those data centers will still exist and the need for remote computing is not going to decrease.

Damn right we do. The other commonwealths are PA and KY.

Oh no, not UI, which is (checks notes) almost entirely funded by and paid out of state level payroll taxes.

It’s something absolutely no one actually cares about, so he’s latched onto it because it’s just like him and his reactionary centrist colleagues.

This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.

The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.
