They don’t care about long term profits. These companies get the bulk of their money from private investors (in the U.S. at least). It’s a wham bam thanks mam for profit quickie. That’s how we roll here. Can’t speak for the EU. Just use us as a cautionary tale folks.

Yes. This has been a topic brought up in CA for 2 decades. Every times a mention came up it was quashed. No one wanted to question it. There was this immediate assumption that any tech related company must be run by good guys. LAMO

Dark chocolate. Also, there’s ‘some’ talk dark chocolate (72% and above) can help fight diabetes. But, you can’t already be full blown diabetic to try that out.

Britain is becoming a toxic chemical dumping ground – yet another benefit of Brexit | George Monbiot
Perhaps our government imagines bulldog spirit will protect us from the dangerous substances that Europe rules unsafe, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot
My latest column is about how the UK, with its "sovereign" post-Brexit regulatory system, is becoming a dumping ground for toxic chemicals.
Brings a lump to the throat, this patriotic self-reliance, doesn’t it? Or perhaps to the breast, stomach or liver.

I also question the original poster’s motives. Particularly given the source that was quoted. Not worth anymore thought.

Lmao. This is fundamental information that is pretty well known. But, “Mr I have a check mark on Twitter (that’s what I call it.) so I’m someone”seems quite uninformed.
I wonder if he knows, we know he bought that check. Lol

When you cut taxes on the rich, the rich get richer and the gains don’t trickle down. When you invest in the American people, the middle class expands and the economy grows. It’s that simple.

Amazon health clinics are here. Just remembering the good old days when I’d make jokes about crappy doctors offices being the McDonalds of healthcare. So it wasn’t all in my imagination.

The Supreme Court has agreed to consider whether a US citizen is above the law – a proposition that, if affirmed, would destroy the moral, legal, and political foundations of the Court itself.

US Supreme Court prepares to hear landmark social media cases | CNN Business
The US Supreme Court is set to make a pivotal decision about what Americans can see on social media as it takes up two cases this week that could transform the internet as we know it.
GOP billionaires rigged SCOTUS, and then killed Roe, student debt relief, affirmative action, and legalized discrimination against LGBTQ people.
Now they’re deciding on protecting hate speech and misinformation on social media.
Judicial reform isn’t “radical” — it’s necessary.
