How much do Americans actually pay for healthcare?
  • That's just medical too haha -- $150 extra a month for dental, which covers 2 cleanings a year and X-rays every five. No emergency or orthodontic work.

    Everytime I hear someone tell me how well our system works, it makes me convulse with fury.

  • Costco to start scanning membership cards at the entrance of all its stores
  • Yep, I think this is part of the answer.

    I'm guessing another is identifying which members are primarily using membership card and cash, membership attached to an alternative FOP from their in-house charge (Citi currently), and digital native customers who are all in on the ecosystem.

    Those data points can be used in several manners as Costco can glean valuable marketing insights into their customer base, their shopping habits, and their frequency. More than likely it will be used in ongoing in-house charge provider negotiations to ensure favorable terms for offering their services exclusively.

  • Harris picks Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate
  • Ill be saddened to lose him as governor, but to see him go onto larger issues and to help more people -- I guess that's a sacrifice we can make. Flanagan seems to a be competent lieutenant gov, so we're still helmed by good people.

    Go Harris / Walz!

  • Financial responsibility
  • Have to laugh while dying a little inside when 'free market' people cry about banks, insurance companies, real estate, and other mega corps 'needing' bailouts.

    Isn't that the essence of the free market? If companies suck shit, they die. The American people need a fucking bailout right now before another international corporation.

    www.propublica.org The Delusion of “Advanced” Plastic Recycling

    The plastics industry has heralded a type of chemical recycling it claims could replace new shopping bags and candy wrappers with old ones — but not much is being recycled at all, and this method won’t curb the crisis.

    The Delusion of “Advanced” Plastic Recycling

    I'll be surprised if by the end of the current century if the petrol companies don't see a class action suit similar to the tobacco companies for damages wrought upon humanity.

    That is, for who is left of us by then.
