    The Public Shouldn't Pay for Drugs Twice

    Patents are mentioned in this thread, so I thought I would interject something about patents that isn't widely known. In the United States, only individuals can obtain patents. Neither the government nor any business or university can receive a patent. Patents are always issued in the...

    The Public Shouldn't Pay for Drugs Twice

    You've adopted a common technique of argument in which you decide for someone else what they are like and what they think, when in fact you have little idea of either what they think or what they are like. They have just stated to you something they think, and you have ignored it. You have...

    Inflation from Money Printing, Survival, or Greed?

    The statistics are that they killed over 1000 people. I wouldn't be at all surprised if most of them were black, and I would guess that's an accurately known figure.. But I wonder, do we know the number of these "victims" that were unarmed? What about the number killed that were armed? Is it...

    The Public Shouldn't Pay for Drugs Twice

    The fundamental nature inherent to medical care has, among all the World's nations, been most poorly accommodated by the United States. The requirements of good medical care run counter to the fundamental requirement for capitalism to work well. Capitalism is only well suited to markets where...

    The Untold Story of ‘Russiagate’ and the Road to War in Ukraine

    It is not surprising that a paranoid and isolated autocrat would disagree with the Western Nations' point of view and misinterpret Western intentions. "All In" will turn out to be the worst decision of Putin's life. Mr. Putin must have been encouraged by the easy subterfuge he pulled off when...

    The Untold Story of ‘Russiagate’ and the Road to War in Ukraine

    The Untold Story of ‘Russiagate’ and the Road to War in Ukraine "Russia’s meddling in Trump-era politics was more directly connected to the current war than previously understood." This is a very long Rutenberg article in today's NYT. Finally, now that Manafort has been pardoned from federal...

    How the 2008 Financial Crisis Still Affects You

    I edited the long post above at 11 pm and went to bed. This morning I noticed two rough spots. 1. In the second sentence, first paragraph, delete "Although". The Sentence should read: It is true that by keeping interest rates low Central Banks can enable growth of what's popularly called the...

    How the 2008 Financial Crisis Still Affects You

    As is so common these days, fractional reserve banking in a low interest environment is confused with money "printing". Although it is true that by keeping interest rates low Central Banks can enable growth of what's popularly called the money supply -- more accurately the "money stock" of...

    Inflation from Money Printing, Survival, or Greed?

    Re the first paper mentioned, it would be best to wait for the peer review. Re the second paper, behind a paywall, the abstract alone is insufficient to convince anyone that your statement, "...despite conclusive proof that [covid boosters are], statistically, far more dangerous than said...

    Inflation from Money Printing, Survival, or Greed?

    You've made your position clear. For that I thank you. I should, I suppose, point out a small error. Half the population does not vote Republican. It is actually less than half. This is, of course, why a number of recent Republican Presidents have been been elected by the Electoral College...

    What was your question? I recall you made a request and softened it with the word "please." I chose to ignore your request.
