    This is legitimately a very good thing, but it's fucking hilarious how mask-off the US is where it's literally easier to bus drugs in from Canada than it is to make pharmaceutical companies not be unfathomably evil for ten minutes.

    Bonus: Radicalize your friends and family by pointing out that all these drugs are developed by public research labs to begin with and that there's absolutely nothing preventing our government from simply nationalizing these companies and selling their drugs at fair prices.

    I unsubscribed from his emails a few months ago because of his occasional focus on the good things Biden is doing. Like, I'm sure that one can find positive things that Nazi Germany did (yes, I just went there and earned a few months in re-education after the revolution). That doesn't mean Nazi Germany should be praised, because praising the Nazis only helps fascists. Just as the Global South is not perfect, but criticizing the Global South only does the fascists' work for them.

    This sucks. Biden doing good things will slow down the glorious revolution I dream about.

      He did an executive order asking the FTC to limit non-compete clauses for employees. What’s next? No more NDAs? No more drug tests? Where does this insanity end?

      I mean, this is just yet another Rube Goldburg machine that might save me a meaningless amount of money. The main impact will probably just be an increase in prices in Canada.
