Specific EV Questions
I went to see Deepal S07, i love the interior, but BYD Sealion 7 looks interesting and online research shows it's better in many ways. I can still use the car if they really want to tax world wide income and I dont stay here year long. -

Progressive Leaders Join Elon Musk in Critiquing American Healthcare Costs
I think that guy ended up in prison on an unrelated charge. He may be out now. They had a nickname for him, but it escapes me now. Anyway, the entire healthcare industry, including the drug companies, the doctors, the insurance companies, and everyone else employed in that system, is today nothing but a "business." They run it like any other business. It and the military industrial complex. Both operate as ruthless capitalists. Both have hundreds of lobbyists in DC, and both make the illegal drug cartels look like a bunch of amateurs. Sick or injured? If you're not insured, then "sorry, you didn't pay for "protection." Otherwise, you may just live to see another day. And, just as the health care industry would collapse without sick people, so too would the military complex collapse without a continual state of war. And so if they can't find one somewhere, they manufacture one. It's been that way for years. -

Have You Won the Game of Life?
Can't really fault this take. No meal I've had measures up to the Indian options on Soi 11. The towns are all mobile phone stores selling mobile phones to each other. The traffic is horrendous. Lovely people, but no sanuk. Sri Lanka is apparently Indian-Laos. Both places are def one and done's. I'm on a couple of Intrepid tours. A bit lefty in that you peek into the ladies carpet co-operative or have tea with a Jain family. They do a pretty good job of ferrying me around. Using public transport would be hard here. I flew 4 times; my luggage went missing twice. Hotels are indistinguishable from each other. The Taj Mahal was derangedly crowded. Goa is a dirty dump. But I have in fact won the game of life if I can decide on a whim to book into a month of tours, and then be chill when they're a little bit of a letdown. Booked 2 weeks in Mongolia with Intrepid for June. Every other day is 7 hours on a bus through yurt-land. Fly direct from BKK, 6 hours. Ulan Bator is rated as the worst town in Asia, but I booked The Shangri-La next to a high end mall. -

Progressive Leaders Join Elon Musk in Critiquing American Healthcare Costs
The man was Martin Shkreli, the former CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, who was called before Cummings' committee in February 2016. After hiking the price of an old drug for parasitic infections to $750 a pill from $13.50, Shkreli became the poster boy for pharmaceutical greed that helped define the past decade. https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2019/12/31/792617538/a-decade-marked-by-outrage-over-drug-prices -
