Please copy and paste into the forms on the website of your members of Congress, then boost.

This #Republican Administration views #healthcare as a means to enrich corporations, and I want you to be loud and clear about a few specific things:

--Last week's boost of Medicare Advantage reimbursement rates is about boosting corporate #profit. Each year, #MedicareAdvantage plans cost taxpayers $83 billion more than Traditional #Medicare. This extra cost goes mostly to the private companies who administer these programs. These programs promised our government they would lower costs, then didn't. Giving these companies more in reimbursement will not improve health or shore up rural hospitals. It will enrich already rich insurance companies. In their budget reconciliation they are going to cut Medicaid. The poor will face cuts to their healthcare while the insurance companies rake in more money.

--Companies facing tariffs on medications or precursors for medications will pass these costs onto consumers. The companies will make money while millions of Americans each day face the dilemma of paying for food or paying for medications. This tariff whiplash caused by the Republican Administration cannot include medications or their precursors.

Please fight for the elderly and the working poor. Please talk about these issues every day, particularly with news media in Republican-voting parts of the state. Side with the people, not corporations.

(1/5) Das Internet fördert eine #Ausbeutungswirtschaft, bei der viele Menschen wertvolle Dinge erarbeiten und der daraus resultierende #Reichtum aber kaum der #Gesellschaft, sondern nur einigen wenigen Unternehmen zugute kommt.
Mit den #KI-Systemen hat sich der Prozess weiter beschleunigt.
Die Arbeit von #Kreativen wird zum #Trainieren der Systeme genutzt, doch den #Profit haben sie nicht davon.

1. Private #Krankenkassen abschaffen, alle zahlen in die gesetzliche Krankenkasse ein
2. Die zig BKKs usw. konsolidieren
3. #Homöopathie und andere #Esoterik nicht mehr finanzieren

@gocu54 @weyoun6

nick:

you agreed #healthcare as #profit is wrong, bless you

you appreciated how #plutocracy (not #capitalism) corrupts the legislative process to continue being a rent seeking #parasite- not a #freeMarket

since we agree here, you need to take the final step with us:

where peaceful change to stop suffering and death for profit is blocked

then #luigi is *inevitable*

you don't have to embrace him

but you must accept him

because luigi is the symptom, not the root problem

@gocu54 @deepmud

"it doesn't give anyone the right to be the judge, jury, and executioner"

you're speaking of the "#healthcare" system that debilitates, bankrupts, and *kills*

for #profit

right?

i am not asking you to support #luigi

i am asking you, simply:

do you think there will never be pushback?

and if pushback through normal, legal means is stymied

by the parasites profiting here

via #corruption

do you think that pushback will just magically disappear?

please think on this:

Oil companies create ‘smokescreen’ to enable exploration off Brazil’s Amazon coast

https://infoamazonia.org/en/2025/04/03/oil-companies-create-smokescreen-to-enable-exploration-off-brazils-amazon-coast/

Oil companies are covertly positioning to extract oil from the entire mouth of the Amazon River, an investigation shows. Drilling in this ecologically sensitive region could impact traditional communities, and nature reserves.

House GOP Passes Bill That Moves Toward Making Trump a 'King With Unlimited Power'

https://www.commondreams.org/news/republicans-impeach-judges

Republicans in the U.S. House passed the No Rogue Rulings Act, limiting judges' ability to block Trump's executive orders. Will the Senate stand up for our constitutional rights or let one man's agenda dismantle our democracy?

Und ja, #Merz und andere #Schundenbremse-Fetischisten wissen ganz genau dass nur #Neonazis wie die #NSAfD von deren #AntisozialerKackshice profitiert!

Wenn das keine #Verfassungsfeindlichkeit ist, dann können wir das mit #Grundgesetz & #FDGO auch gleich sein lassen und #Turbokapitalisten den Planet zum verbrennen für #Profit geben!

#DEpol #Sarkasmus

@remixtures You write: "their bosses, who want to maximize profit". The economic ignoramuses like you can't understand that #profit is the proof that the #business makes people more happy (less unhappy). Under #capitalism, the businessman can't make a profit, if consumers don't buy his goods or services. So you should read/listen to the real economists, i.e. #Mises and/or #Rothbard, and don't repeat the nonsense of #Marx or #Keynes. https://mises.org/library/book/lessons-young-economist

Weedkiller maker asks US Supreme Court to block lawsuits claiming it failed to warn about cancer

https://apnews.com/article/bayer-roundup-cancer-lawsuits-supreme-court-dc9baf29612963856829564e8ee77195

Bayer faces about 181,000 Roundup claims, mostly from residential users. They want the U.S. Supreme Court to halt thousands of lawsuits alleging it failed to warn a popular weedkiller could case cancer.

I'm going into the printing business people, nice turnover and profits! Have a lookout for this profile pic at the bottom right of the next ballot papers. Question begs why our FIC is so busy with foreign politicians and their henchmen, while the pond is overflowing at home. #corruption #SouthAfrica #Zimbabwe #Profit https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2025-04-08-south-africas-fic-south-african-printing-firm-paid-politically-connected-zimbabwean-agent-r800m/

#Brands that prioritise #socialgood grow 37% faster.
Their #equityprices have risen by 93% over 5 years.
Also called #citizenbrands.
Companies that successfully connect #profit with #purpose are securing a stronger market position.

@ulrichkelber #ThomasFricke war Chefökonom von #FT Deutschland und ebenfalls bei #grunerundjahr für Capital, BörseOnline und Impulse. Was soll man denn anderes erwarten, als das Widerkäuen des #Neoliberalismus als Wirtschaftsmodell, wo nur #Profit als Indikator für Erfolg herangezogen wird und #Klimafolgekosten unter den Tisch fallen (dürfen), denn gesellschaftlich und politisch will keiner, dass die Verursacher an diesen Kosten auch nur im Ansatz beteiligt werden. Um die Ecke, wo ich lebe, steht seit mindestens 30 Jahren eine Luftmessstation. Die #Feinstaub Belastung übersteigt regelmäßig die Grenzwerte in Berlin. Ich habe es kein einziges Mal erlebt, dass der zahlreich fließende Verkehr auch nur 1 Tag in #Berlin unterbrochen wurde, damit man wieder saubere Luft atmen kann. In 90% der #PkW sitzt 1 Person. Das ist das #Geschäftsmodell in #Deuschland.
Daher kann man schon als Bürger wütend auf den #Spiegel werden (und auf #UteBonde).

@NorCalWineLady

Don't be sad. #Lindt has greatly reduced the quality of its products over the years in favour of #profit. They use more cheap ingredients like vegetable fat instead of cocoa butter and more. Better look for a manufacturer of good organic chocolate
@GottaLaff

If a newspaper is produced entirely by #AI, like a current experiment in #Italy, then what does the content consist of? That's right, stolen material. An #AI can't go out and research, interview people, get a first-hand look, or attend sporting events.

Yes, the creators are shabby because they only care about #profit and unscrupulously steal from others to achieve it. But anyone who consumes this filth is also a traitor to human values.

Wenn eine Zeitung komplett von #KI erstellt wird, wie ein aktuelles Experiment in #Italien, dann bestehen die Inhalte aus was? Richtig, aus geklautem Material. Eine #KI kann nicht losgehen und recherchieren, Menschen interviewen, sich vor Ort einen Eindruck verschaffen oder Sportereignisse besuchen.

Ja, die Macher sind schäbig, weil es ihnen nur um den #Profit geht und sie dafür skrupellos andere beklauen. Doch wer diesen Dreck auch noch konsumiert, ist dazu noch ein Verräter menschlicher Werte.
