Cutting Medicaid can seem like an easy way to slash the budget. But, the costs can spread to all of us.

I need to wrap my head around the fact that private donors, sports' sponsors and students paying tens of thousands of dollars a year is not enough for universities to be financially sound.
I'd really like to see audits of these universities.
Somehow I don't think teachers' pay is the biggest expense.

"Ultimately, some brands may be forced to "redefine value beyond just ultra-low prices," the WSJ suggested."
When I see the absolute crap and mostly useless products Americans buy, especially with fast fashion, I tend to hope this move will put a dent in America hyper-consumerism culture.
But I also see how it will put some small business in deep trouble.

And car makers know they're polluting the planet.
And health insurance know they're killing people.
And cigarette/pesticide/plastic/teflon companies know they're selling highly cancerous products...
The only "conspiracy" in this world is capitalism ready to kill people for money.

For Trumpsters who think only fraudsters will loose healthcare.
"Because of a statutory requirement to automatically impose budget cuts when legislation increases the deficit, the Big Beautiful Bill would require automatic cuts across the board."
"Medicare is one of the programs that will face the axe, starting in the next fiscal year that begins in October."

π£ The number of followers of German scientific institutions in the #Fediverse surpassed the 160k mark π₯ last weekend, see
π https://mastodon-listen.playground.54gradsoftware.de/?liste=institute-de
Yes, it's true: we shouldn't get caught up in this nonsensical discussion about #reach in the Fediverse.
On the other hand, itβs a great success π for initiatives such as #Unis4Mastodon, #Byebyeelon, #WissXit, #SaveSocial, @helloQuitX and others that more than 150 research institutions in Germany are contributing to the expansion of the Fediverse.
To our friends in the #USA, we say that we are alarmed at how the new #USpolicy is attacking #science. We are trying to build decentralized and independent #socialnetworks to make our research institutions and democracy resilient to attacks from #autocrats and #hostilitytoscience.
And we think this transformation should happen in other countries, too, to strengthen #democracy.
