That also falls under the outcome of "health outcomes will be worse," since people will die from lack of treatment.

Here are the documents. As expected, all of these documents have been in the public domain for decades, and are well known to researchers. For those interested in the fate of Amelia Earhart, I recommend Ric Gillespie's book, "Finding Amelia."

I fear you may be right. But then people will be thrown out of hospitals to die on the street. I am hoping that the prospect of this happening will be sufficient to deter Congress. But who knows these days?

Since the emergency room patients can't pay, and hospitals must treat, they will pass costs back through yet higher charges, leading to further shrinkage of private health insurance coverage. Costs to society will be much higher, and health outcomes much worse.

The middleman is taking a risk and taking a cut, and there may well have been some delay in the transaction. The Russians probably received somewhat less income from the cargos than before the sanctions.

Good grief. What could possibly go wrong?

One way to make cheaper gasoline is to reduce the octane rating, or go back to using tetraethyl lead in lieu of aromatics or alcohols. Straight run naphtha is maybe 73 octane.
