Hepatitis C
The new, effective treatment for Hepatitis C is so expensive that 2/3 of
the Americans who catch it don't get treated.
This failure of the medical system used to happen only in poor countries,
but now even the US is becoming a poor country (for most of its inhabitants). |

Google Says It Will Delete Location Data When Users Visit Abortion Clinics
Google said it would "delete" location data that show visits to
"sensitive" locations, which include
abortion clinics and some other
places.
In regard to location data, it is a good first step, but limited. It
is limited because (1) it excludes all the other places people might
not want to be tracked to, and (2) it excludes location data
collectors other than Google.
Most crucially, it doesn't include the places where you might someday
arrange to meet a
reporter to disclose a crime committed by the state.
I am not sure what it means to say they "delete" this data rather than
not storing it. Is it just another way of saying the same thing?
If it really means something tangible, it seems like a risky mistake. |

Britain faces crisis upon crisis, and our leaders are absent. This is how a country falls apart
The two Tory contenders to replace Bogus Johnson stand for
neoliberalism. Their ideology says that the government should do
nothing to correct Britain's devastating problems,
because interfering with
the market is a sin.
Laissez faire, laissez mourir.
In practice, that means they do nothing to stop businesses from
squeezing money out of the non-rich. The billionaires that fund the
Tory party must find that convenient. |

Sinema Received Over $500K From Private Equity Before Shielding Industry From Tax Hikes
"private equity" parasites gave Senator Sinema $500 million in campaign
funds this year,
to pay her to protect their low income tax rate.
Even worse than their low tax rate is the way these so-called
"investors" destroy companies. Years after the demise of Pay less Shoe
Source, which I used to be a customer of, I have found no physical
stores that sell the things I used to buy there. That is just one
example of many. |
