More Trump Socialism
Medical insurance is expensive in America because of the eye-watering payouts to patients who are successful in malpractice claims. The doctors have to have costly professional indemnity insurance, which then gets passed on to their patients. In the period 2013 - 2023, medical malpractice payouts in the US totaled $34 billion. Lawyers took 33%, they have a vested interest in maximizing payouts. One solution is obvious. As Shakespeare said, first kill all the lawyers. -

The End is Nigh
So that online seller claims to sell medical cannabis, but yet they will sell any amount of it to anybody who wants to buy it purely for recreational use? Sounds reputable to me! -

Why isnt Trumps approval rating 80%?
Ranting... There is no doubt that he is using the presidency to enrich himself. He did it before and he'll do it again. Dodgy coins anyone? There's what you see on the surface and then there is what you don't see quite so easily. The private deals. Donations in kind. Kickbacks. Even if it were right in front of your face, you would gloss over it, such is your blind hatred. -

Crime Drunken Foreign Tourists Assault Thai Woman, Locals Step In with Brutal Response
these women are cash cows for the tourism industry. that's one reason they may react so strongly. just a hunch. I think thats overthinking the 'intelligence' of those dishing out the beating... Evenkeel is right, these guys don't care at all about the woman in question... They are 'trigger-finger-locals' looking for an excuse... What we are seeing the tail end snippet of an 'incident' from a social media post and 'told' what happened by the original social media poster. One of the major issues Social Media Posts (original source not the AN report) is the influence of sensationalism. Opinions are drawn from short, highly selective or incomplete video snippets posted on social media – such clips designed to provoke, outrage, or mislead. They typically present the worst angle of an event, often from an extremely biased perspective, and rarely provide the full context. So - what was the full context ??? I'm not condoning the men hitting a woman (any woman), but, why is there never any 'lead up' in these social media stories to give us context... i.e did the woman slap the men a few times until they had enough and slapped her back etc ? - (I'm not suggesting this is what happened - just that there is more to the story that could offer an explanation as to how and why things escalated)... Or, did the woman simply say something the men took offence to so the 'animals' slapped her for hardly any reason at all ?? Was there a padded or contested bill and the woman become argumentative and physical ? I've seen guys in similar situations - one guy paid up and left a bar - the other guy was handed the bill for both of them - he contested the bill and things got heated, girls shrieking and arguing with him, pushing him, while he remained calm - he took out his phone and showed the QR payment receipt of the of the other guy - the cashier accepted this 'accidental' double charge - but a few of the girls were already angry by that stage and looking for a problem with the guy !!... the guy did well to completely decompress a situation and stay chilled - others would have become a social media story...
