So they have new photos of him, and they are looking for all surveillance in the 10 days he was in New York, and they have him loitering in the area 5 minutes prior to Thompson's arrival at the investor conference he was attending. They have a cellphone he left. They're trying to get the bike.
They fucking lost him and they're scrambling.
This is exciting. Heck I don't know what I'm more excited about - the potential for The Adjuster to get away, the message Thompson received, the collective panic amongst the elite, or the investigation work telling us how desperate they are trying.
You know, they never mentioned how much monopoly money it was.
It makes me wonder if they thought to count it. There's more statements to be made, especially if there was a phone there.
CSI: Elite
"We found that test audiences repeatedly stopped caring after the opening murder scene played. In fact, some of them really seemed to be engaged, and possibly even posed to give positive responses, but unanimously became negative responses when they learned more of the victims back story."
I mean my ex wife had what she called "resting bitch face."
Everyone else just said she's emotionless and has the exact same monotone of voice outside of her "customer service" voice. She could get angry, but she really didn't get angry she just got loud. Until she typically lost it then it was different.
Looking back on it, people always told me "there's something off about her." I always kind of brushed it aside cause she was hot.
Man if it's every dispute, that means even the non-indsured are being looked at.
In like 2021 there was a case in Tennessee where the claims were all underpaid.
They also have no friends involved in Medicare. As recently as this past summer they were discovered to be over-billing Medicare by adding diagnostics and treatment the patients never received. And yes, this was the insurance part of UHG.
So if they're investigating everything, it's going to lead to a world of headache for UHG.
But you also have to keep slaves relatively healthy to maintain them working. If you slaves get too hungry, they can't do whatever labor you make em do. If they get real sick, it's going to affect your other slaves.
And human slaves usually don't put their heads down and do it forever. A lot of the Nazi labor camps massacred their captives because they started uprisings.
There is nothing economically feasible with what they want. They just think they can do what they want and he even richer. Which is why you can look at the entirety of recorded human history for these same mistakes being repeated over and over again.
The US Dollar is a fiat currency. The value is merely what the market dictates amongst trading frequency and how much debt is held in it.
It's backed by nothing. A dollar has a made up value. In the1970s Nixon ended the US gold Standard, and those with property, not the government who held the gold, got to dictate it. Same thing through today.
No, dictators fucking love central banks and fiat currency.
They like it even better than anything, because a dictator almost always controls the central bank. Plus, the dictator and his buddies almost always own everything, and when you own property you need fiat currency to stay in power. Fiat currency inevitably leads to hyperinflation. With hyperinflation, you get way wealthier owning property than having cash. At that point they don't need the central bank that they control.
Do you mean the hypocrisy of supporting Ukraine because they were invaded by Russia (twice now) and Israel which has attacked Gaza and Lebanon (and probably more if they get their way).
I guess that one makes a lot more sense to me because Israel has a long complicated history. Ukraine is relatively simple: they were happy to separate from the USSR and the invasion was attempted annexation.
Unless people have their head buried in the sand, Russia has been known to be a Mafia state. Israel, on the other hand, has been so effectively supported in post-world war II propaganda that they even taught us in school that Israel was to become a "safe place" for Jews.
Syria is completely unlike either of those though. It just appears to be a complete clusterfuck
So that was a long ass article but worth the read.
Obviously the author is one of integrity which doesn't exist in most media. Reading between it all, I noticed there was something that bothered me far more than the Hospital clearly covering it up, or Weiner outright murdering his patients:
The doctors who brought all of this forward and went through appropriate channels were all suppressed.
A non-profit hospital is a start. And I appreciate the "concerns of patient comfort." But there were so many doctors concerned about the standard of care and likely malpractice, yet nothing is able to be done about it? The 16 year old had a massive tumor missed two weeks prior, and Warwick never had cancer to begin with?
Are we talking about corruption of one doctor? Or are we talking about corruption of a whole system? Medicine needs to be science. Since the doctors come together on a consensus that Weiner was not providing standard of care, then the doctors need the authority to remove him from that position.
This has money and power written all over it.
I get the feeling it's the same in most industries. "Upper leadership" is a problem that needs to be dealt with. Not just executives, but it's a start. Management will destroy this planet because that's the best ROI.
"Deny, Defend, Depose" is what was "officially" shared, but it's earily similar to the title of a book 'Deny, Delay, Defend' referring to the insurance company policies to avoid making claim payouts.
"it's being framed as some opening blow in a broader class war"
I mean the guy did hit the nail on the head. The elite have done so much for so long to keep the masses divided to prevent a class war. The sane thing would be for private companies, especially the healthcare insurance industry, to immediately change their policies before it gets worse.
The pressure has been rising for a long time, and something gave a few days ago. Cats already out of the bag.
Well, considering that Americans have to pay for health insurance in one way shape or form, and it likely comes out of their paycheck every month if they get benefits, no. It's not.
Because we all have to pay an ass load of what we worked for for something we don't necessarily need at the moment, but when we do, we'd really fucking like to.
In 2012 the total bill a relative got for their heart attack (or maybe stroke, I can't remember it was bad) was $2m. Had they not had insurance that covered it, that's how much debt they'd be in. In 2012. Fast forward to now. Yeah, a lot of insurance covers stuff like that. But a lot of people only have the insurance that covers absolutely the bare minimum.
Which is how you end up with people having poor health, subsequent heart attacks, or strokes, etc. Preventative medicine would keep those far rarer than they currently are.
So, no. $50k isn't a lot. Its an insult. It's an insult to the $20k/year people pay for something they can't use. Instead that $20k/year could go to a universal health system where you don't wait until you end up in the ER to get medical care. It's an insult to the people who are saddled in medical debt by denied claims. Its an insult to doctors who give the care a patient needs. It's an insult to the healthy people who understand they aren't invulnerable.
He did get the steam deck made, so that was kinda cool.
But maybe owning 6 yachts is a little less cool.
Unless the sub and boats were like research vessels he funds, that would be cool
But they aren't.
Why can't billionaires dump their money into funding scientific research? It's not like there aren't scientists out there with plenty of research to be done.
Or even maybe wherever he lives, he could like, fund the entire county school districts for the rest of existence and no one would have to worry about taxes.
Or maybe regularly cancel the medical debt of Valve employees and their families.
Like how fucking hard is it to redistribute your own wealth?
Like fucking Christ, that's the part I don't understand. They complain about taxes and shit at the top, but they do absolutely fuck all to make things better for large swaths of people. Or if they do, it's after they die and $200m gets donated to a university and it prevents next year's tuition from increasing.
Like you said, it's hard to not be on security cameras, and they only shared the video of the attack that had a couple of frames of the upper half of his face. So they are looking for someone with the upper half of their face.
:O
