World News@lemmy.world•Brazil President bans online gamblingEnglish
1·11 days agoAlcohol sales did not increase, though it did make a small number of people rich, that is true. That doesn’t change the fact prohibition was successful in greatly reducing alcohol consumption.

122·11 days agoIt does work. It objectively reduces whatever is banned. Just because enforcement cannot be 100%, that does not mean outlawing certain activities is a failure. Prohibition, for example, reduced alcohol consumption by 70%.
He just doesn’t want his cause being co-opted by another. It’s dishonest.
Considering the copay is 20%, probably most of it. If not, they’re sticking the insured with a far higher percentage of the cost than agreed on. Granted, I also get copay assistance so I don’t actually pay $100,000 per month. But Strensiq really does cost millions per year per patient at this time.
Where do you all live where there are only two races?
I am on a drug that the pharmaceutical bills insurance $500,000 per month for called Strensiq. This is not a lie, I have the EOBs.
You don’t do politics either. You just roleplay like your opinion has any impact and in reality you’re just annoying.

politics @lemmy.world•‘People are pissed off’: anger at the elite and the establishment is fueling this year’s midterms
23·17 days agoThat’s what happens when everything you hear about someone is from the slant of people who profit off making you angry. No one will ever be good enough, and everyone is always maximum evil.

Technology@lemmy.world•Sam Altman says OpenAI will not go public this year as AI fears growEnglish
14·24 days agoI almost believe it’s related. It sounds like the left are up in arms over AI not because of safety but because of money. If they would be more specific about safety, maybe people would listen.

58·24 days agoI hear a lot about AI safety. What, precisely, is unsafe about AI that is unique to AI?

Yeah, they don’t even get great PR.

politics @lemmy.world•Pentagon refuses payout for soldiers who died in Iran conflict ‘because it isn’t a war’
11·1 month agoUnfortunately for your hot take, Iraq signed surrender and the US executed their former leader. The US objectively won that war. I get it, in your mind victory or defeat hinges on whether you like the victor or not, but reality doesn’t work that way.
But if it’s any consolation, Iran also defeated Iraq and the US didn’t take on Iraq alone. I personally don’t believe Iraq was a worthy opponent for the US. But saying the US hasn’t won a war since WW2 is factually incorrect.
