  1. If I get asked why I'm a socialist, depending on who's asking, I think of responding like this:

    "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

  6. Annika Kim Constantino reports that new drug pricing moves may reshape costs for millions of patients. Under a "most favored nation" policy, several pharmaceutical companies are entering voluntary deals to align U.S. medication prices with lower international rates in exchange for certain Medicare exemptions. While the specific impact on out-of-pocket costs is still unfolding, these agreements highlight significant political and industry pressure regarding healthcare affordability.

  9. What It Means To Kill in Combat

    “DEFENSE ONE” By Phil Zabriskie

    “The killing a country does through its soldiers is part of its fabric and identity. The less it is examined, the less a country will know about itself, its impulses, and the impact of what it has trained and dispatched its sons and daughters to do.“

    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    “If a war fails to achieve its stated objectives—as Vietnam did—it can make the reasons for killing even harder to accept. Some recent vets of Iraq and Afghanistan, said the psychiatrist, are already asking, “What was it all for?”

    This is not to cast troops who kill in combat as victims. They should carry the weight of what they did. But they should not be forced to carry it alone. Their leadership, from the company level all the way to the Chief of Staff, is part of every killing that’s carried out. So too are the civilian architects of these wars. And the rest of us bear some responsibility as well.

    The killing a country does through its soldiers is part of its fabric and identity. The less it is examined, the less a country will know about itself, its impulses, and the impact of what it has trained and dispatched its sons and daughters to do.

    A more honest conversation about what war is and what war does is a good place to start. Those who [called] for boots on the ground in Iraq, Syria, or anywhere else, should be first to have it. They should understand and explain exactly what it [means] if troops are deployed, and they should press the military to give its charges tools that not only help them kill when they should, but also how to live with the killing they’ve done later in life.

    More counseling must be made available as well, as part of the broader overhaul of the VA, and steps taken to remove the stigma that still exists around seeking help for the psychological wounds of war. And no one should ask a veteran if he or she has killed anybody unless they really want to hear the answer—and are prepared to listen.”

  10. Malawi’s executive order on health services is drawing praise and pressure in equal measure.

    Support is strong. But the public message is clear. Implementation will decide everything.

  11. @david
    The insurance company (#Aetna) owns both the doctors, the drugstore (#CVS) and even one of the pharmaceutical companies making the drugs.

    "I believe you call this 'Vertical Integration'?"

  12. MBC should improve outcomes — yet most behavioral health teams struggle to keep it going.
    The issue isn’t motivation. It’s a system problem: scattered tools, inconsistent processes, and added admin work on already stretched teams.

    Here’s a powerful breakdown of why providers abandon MBC and what a better system could look like.

  13. I mean...it *sounds* like a good idea. I for one could really use a check from the government right now. But how come we've never heard anything about this "plan" before? (???)

  15. #PrivateEquity #Greed should have no place in #healthcare or #eldercare

    Wheelchair-bound Terie Gelberg has lived at the Harborside, a retirement community on Long Island’s North Shore, for almost two decades. It was supposed to be the last home for the 99-year-old with memory issues, but plans to sell the bankrupt facility to a private equity firm threaten to upend her care. She, alongside other residents of Harborside’s Port Washington nursing home, memory-care and assisted-living units will be forced to relocate if a bankruptcy court judge approves Focus Healthcare Partners’ $80 million deal to buy the complex in February.

  17. 🔒 When DEF CON's security chief can't defend against medical bills, you know the system needs a patch! Marc Rogers, who's made plenty of bad guys cry, faces a different kind of security breach: US healthcare costs. But the infosec community's response shows some firewalls are meant to be shared. $83K raised so far! 💪 #Cybersecurity #HealthcareReform
