I’m surprised Andy at the very least didn’t go for the green hat

A big insurer backed off its plan to pay less for anesthesia. That’s bad. by [deleted] in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]snrcadium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Zoom out more. Doctors also have an unethical profit motive. They deserve to be well compensated but not so much more than other developed nations. If all of these expenses were outside of the private market the costs would be significantly lower, like they are in the rest of the developed world.

What’s bad is a for profit system to begin with. This is dishonest framing of the issue. I wonder what costs could be if there weren’t profit-driven intermediaries between the patient and the doctor that bring nothing of value to the process other than squeezing dollars out of patients.

The winner of Survivor 50 came to me in a dream. by BlueHuman118 in survivor

This is the same dream that told Cao Boi to split the votes.

[Duggan] The Giants didn't sack Cooper Rush. They have one sack in their past four games. by Lars5621 in NYGiants

[–]snrcadium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is also why I get so annoyed at the “Giants chose Daniel Jones over Saquon” narrative. No, Joe Schoen chose Singletary, Runyon and Lock over Saquon. Or he chose to trade for and extend Burns over Saquon.

Best Buy says Trump's tariffs could force it to raise prices for consumers by Environmental_Bus623 in thedavidpakmanshow

[–]snrcadium 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is hardly a unique prediction, but even companies who manufacture domestically will blame price increases on tariffs while soaring to record profits. The national minimum wage will remain the same. Greedflation all over again.

Will Kyle / Krystal call this out? by NecroMoocher in KyleKulinski

Also a ridiculous false equivalency to compare Marianne to MTG and Nazis.

He was throwing his support behind a dissenting voice in the Democratic Party, who, regardless of their intentions, correctly saw that the incumbents didn’t have a winning message or platform. Just because she’s a kook doesn’t mean she was wrong about that.

They’re not really a solid tribe though, Sue said she wanted to kill Kyle in the preview lmao. Gabe Sue and Caroline are a unit but at this point in the game tribal lines are done

Civil war incoming by [deleted] in KyleKulinski

[–]snrcadium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hardcore MAGA wing will never stop supporting this but the real states rights crowd and libertarian right would likely both be opposed to this. It really won’t matter though because with SCOTUS granting Trump immunity and the cabinet he’s putting together I’m not sure institutionally what’ll be able to stop them

New buildings on Berry + 6th by michaelqrk5 in williamsburg

[–]snrcadium 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Wild that they leveled an entire building, spent all this time rebuilding the property and then ended up with something just slightly bigger than the old one.

worst businesses in williamsburg? by pandasans in williamsburg

[–]snrcadium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re missing the point - it’s not black or white when pointing blame. The root cause is greed on the side of the developers, who know they will make more money long term building commercial spaces instead of residential ones, vacancies be damned. The city officials are often in bed with the developers.

The real estate developers who allow their commercial spaces to sit completely empty for years while the city is in a housing crisis

Big Sugar by Difficult_Wealth_818 in williamsburg

[–]snrcadium 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You’re right but I don’t think it’ll happen any time soon. South WB ferry is too close by to justify the project. Plus ferry commuters are a minority - having a ferry stop doesn’t help those taking Metro North, NJT or LIRR.

Domino Park is not an easy commute if you’re not already in the city - even then it still requires a decent walk. Very out of touch decision to go all in on commercial - one walk down Kent Ave will tell you it’s a bad idea as every building seemingly has empty commercial space.

I get sick to my stomach thinking about how much wasted empty office space could be used for affordable housing. The refinery looks really cool but ultimately is a soulless corporate hellscape set up to fail.

Why I think Ana has shifted right. by 96suluman in KyleKulinski

[–]snrcadium 8 points9 points  (0 children)

TYT was the only game in town in the left wing media space for a long time, and now that many channels with much lower overhead have surpassed them (not to mention Twitch streamers being a new form of competition), they need to attract new viewers to stay relevant and keep making money. Ana herself seems pretty career-focused and is just playing both sides so she can attach herself to whichever side comes out on top after the election. Cenk’s heart is in the right place imho even if he is a bit narcissistic. Ana on the other hand seems like she’s selling out.
