I go to vegas every year for a shot at the american dream
Meme coin enthusiasts acknowledge the silliness and risks of meme coins. But for a generation that can feel excluded from traditional paths to economic independence, betting on a meme coin payday can seem like a reasonable shot at the American Dream.
These young people see meme coins as their best shot at the American Dream
Some younger Americans are investing in volatile meme coins as conventional paths to financial security feel out of reach.

I understand why these stories exist but it’s important to be clear that he’s not “saving” 16 billion, he’s choosing, personally, without oversight, to wipe out 16 billion dollars of government services to veterans and the disabled and food safety etc etc
DOGE says it has saved $55 billion in federal spending so far, but its website only accounts for $16.6 billion of that
DOGE Says It’s Saved $55 Billion, Itemized Data Show Far Less
The federal cost-cutting effort dubbed the Department of Government Efficiency says it has saved $55 billion in federal spending so far, but its website only accounts for $16.6 billion of that.

I think the reason people are frustrated with Democratic leaders is that they expect these elected representatives to act like a real disaster is happening, which it is. Four-day weekends and bratwurst junkets in Munich kind of undercut that

Cerberus, a private equity firm, buys a chain of hospitals, sells the land on which they sit, and charges them rent. The hospitals struggle and start cutting corners. Patients' care worsens, death rates climb. And Cerberus makes $790 million in profit.
Health care accounts for more than 17 per cent of the U.S. economy, or around $4.5 trillion dollars, but the revenues of just two companies—CVS/Aetna and UnitedHealth—account for nearly one in every seven dollars the nation spends on health care.
The Gilded Age of Medicine Is Here
Health insurers and hospitals increasingly treat patients less as humans in need of care than consumers who generate profit.

University admins claim to be "data-driven" and "run universities like a business," but when study after study finds liberal arts majors get good outcomes, are cheap to run, and are in fact profit centers, admins cut them anyway for ideological reasons.

I don’t think presidents have much effect on crime. But it’s fascinating that Trump is the first president in 30 years to oversee a rise in crime. And crime has dropped significantly since he left office. Yet Republicans still attack Biden and Democrats on crime. And it works!

The right has retconned the push for content moderation on the big platforms as caving to liberal demands for censorship but the original catalyst was actually advertisers being spooked by ISIS propaganda bsky.app/profile/nyti...
Many of the violent videos and images posted to social media since Hamas attacked Israel have been seeded by Hamas to terrorize civilians and take advantage of the lack of content moderation on some sites, including X and Telegram, a Hamas official and social media experts said.
Hamas Seeds Violent Videos on Sites With Little Moderation
The strategy mirrors efforts by extremist groups like the Islamic State and Al Qaeda in years past.
