    For one they cannot be #Privatized. That has to be made #Illegal. So many functions that are the state's job have been parceled out for #Cronyism. This is the state's job. If there is to be any correcting it is to be done by the state not some greedy ass corporation.

  15. Translation: The con artist and his cronies don't make money from offshore generics, but boy, would they ever, if they could control the entire market, and jack up the cost to patients. These people are crooks, but media treats them as truthful.

    "Prime Minister Mark Carney said Tuesday that he will appoint one of his most senior advisers to the Senate, a move that could send shockwaves through the Red Chamber...

  21. This is gross in multiple ways. Patronage nepo appointments, indeed.

    Carney's chief strategist. Ties to the AI strategy. A plum reward for 2 generations of service and friendship apparently.
