This is evil shit you’re saying (I’m being a bit dramatic, sure). Healthcare is made more expensive by all these rules about IT. Life or death depends on keeping costs down and making it seamless for doctors to share information with one a

I don’t like landlords (such as those in SV) collecting so much of the value, but a more productive solution here is minimal zoning, a high land value tax (with other taxes lower), and letting people do what they want with their property, a

We already have voters deciding how much housing gets built. The result is we have not enough of it. We’ve also seen, during this pandemic, what happens to rental prices when landlords are powerless over tenants. They go up. And landlords d
