And every time someone said "I feel like my phone is listening to me" they came out with a statement like "that's crazy, we would never do that, why are you so paranoid?"

We are being gaslit every single second of our lives. The corporations are at war with the entire concept of "reality" itself.

Labor Board Classifies โ€˜Love Is Blindโ€™ Contestants as Employees With its complaint against the Netflix hit, the National Labor Relations Board opened the door to unionization.

*huge* news for the reality tv industry: the NLRB just ruled that Love Is Blind cast members are employeesโ€”not contractorsโ€”which means they have a right to unionize, and can be afforded other protections www.nytimes.com/2024/12/11/a...

LinkedIn post by Robert Sterling, featuring a photo of Brian Soderling:

โ€œBrian Thompson went from Jewell, Iowa (population 1,200) to leading 140,000 employees and overseeing $280B of revenue at one of the worldโ€™s most important companies. His mom worked as a beautician, his dad at a grain elevatorโ€”they were probably really proud when he graduated valedictorian of his 50-person high school class. He played basketball and the trombone, got elected homecoming king, and worked in soybean fields and meat processing plants during summers. While studying at the University of Iowa, he met the woman who would become his wife, with whom he would have two kids. By all accounts, he was smart, hard-working, funny, and a thoroughly decent man.

This guyโ€”not the person who murdered him in cold bloodโ€”was everything thatโ€™s right and good about America, and the American Dream. May his memory be a blessing, and may his example inspire all of us to do better.โ€

I donโ€™t normally comment on posts but the situation of the murder of Unitedhealthcareโ€™s CEO did strike a nerve for me. My experience with UnitedHealthcare started in 2014 and ended in 2019. Iโ€™m a type 1 diabetic and require insulin injections to survive. 2014 and 2015 were fine but in 2016, UnitedHealthcare decided to decline my insulin coverage. As I was told by the appeals specialist in 2016 and I remember it like it happened an hour ago, โ€œIโ€™m not saying we donโ€™t cover insulin, Iโ€™m saying we donโ€™t cover your insulin.โ€ At the time, I was forced buy vials of insulin out of pocket at a cost of $740/vial. Each vial lasting only 3 weeks. 

I found out through my partner that I could get my insulin in another country (Brazil) for much cheaper than in the United States. Attached is an image of the insulin I purchased at a pharmacy in Rio de Janeiro. To understand what you see, the total cost of all this insulin was the same as 1 vial in the US. The image is of an 18 month supply. 

Itโ€™s unfortunate that someone was murdered but itโ€™s also important to think about how many thousands were murdered by a company in order to get a higher quarterly dividendโ€ฆa company that claims to be in the business of providing healthcare services?

โ€œMy father paid health insurance to UHC for 50 years.  He was never hospitalized until the last year of his life.  He had light stroke, fell, and passed out.  We called 911 to take him to the hospital close to my parents house.  At 12:30AM, I received a call from UHC case manager that they had to transfer my father to another hospital 15 miles away from his house. Itโ€™s because the cost is lower at the hospital they transferred him to.  I was so upset. They couldnโ€™t wait till morning to transfer him.  It was not fair the way he was handled.  He was 93.  At 12:30AM, I rushed to the hospital he checked in.  I waited in the parking lot for an hour until they carried him out to the ambulance.  I made sure that he saw me and that he wasnโ€™t alone.  I followed the ambulance to the new hospital 15 miles away.  Once again, before they carried him to the emergency room, I made sure he saw me and that he wasnโ€™t alone.  I never forget those moments in my life.  Thatโ€™s how bad UHC treats old patient.โ€

โ€œAs a European observer, what strikes me about this post is that โ€œ$250B of revenueโ€ is in the first line of text rather than an achievement in patient outcomes or the health care system. What is the priority? Do customers feel the services have improved? Has the system become more productive and easier to use?

Revenue is what companies collect to provide products and services. It is what companies do with this money that countsโ€ฆ I hope America takes this time to reflect and reform.โ€

A lot of people think everything will work out if we just play by the rules but donโ€™t seem to recognize that rules only matter when everyone agrees to follow them and, well, that isnโ€™t our present reality.
