#FTC Sues #PBMs for Jacking Up Insulin $
"3 largest pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs)— #middlemen [aka #parasites] tt sit btw #patients, drug cos, & pharmacies in #prescriptiondrug trxns—for practices tt hv spiked the cost of #insulin by over 1200% over the past 2 decades.. PBMs use formularies to provide exclusive or near-excl use of certain types of insulins.. PBMs aren't preferring lowest-price insulins, but ones tt give them highest #rebates, which is how they #profit"

The discussion of what news media calls "price controls" needs to be framed a bit differently.
It's not "price controls" ala Nixon and 1971 gas prices.
It's Stopping the Scalping by pharmaceutical, food, entertainment ticket mongers and other #middlemen #parasites that infest the US #economy.
The goal is not to limit consumption of a resource, it's to limit illegal unreasonable #profits of #amoral #corrupt #monopolistic #corporations.

le retard de prise en charge médicale à cause du bullshit New age, c'est ce qui fait que ce mois ci mon père a un œil aveugle sans aucune chance de guérison alors que ça aurait pu être évité à son âge.
inpectez vos vieux qui sont empêtré dans du #bullshit de pseudo science, mais n'espérez pas faire de miracle.
un moyen ou deux de se prémunir de ça ce serait de lire ou écouter ce que publie l'#AFIS et #metadechoc, ou #conspiracywatch, mais des fois on ne peut juste rien faire.

We also confirmed the observation made by the Wheelers back in the '60s that Manica parasitica is really "shaky". Maybe this is an "adaptive manipulation" by the parasite?

1/2 We (re)rediscovered Manica parasitica in the Sierra Nevada. Originally, this ant species was thought to be a free-loading parasite that uses the nests and brood care of its host Manica bradleyi for its own survival.
Instead, "Manica parasitica" is tapeworm-infested Manica bradleyi.

Ant biologists thought the small, strangely-shaped Manica parasitica from the Sierra Nevada was a social parasite of another ant species, but the truth is even stranger.
