i was out driving the other day and saw multiple houses on the same strip being sold by bain capital.

An argument could be made in favor of socialist or Native American ideals, that the land should belong to everyone.
Corporations shouldnât be allowed to buy anything smaller than a four unit building.
I have told the story of my daughterâs search for a first house. Every one they put an offer in on got snapped up by corporations, up until one that had been snapped up was rejected after inspection. Normal people cannot compete with these guys for housing. Generational wealth becomes even more important in this situation.
âWilliams was granted an eight-hour break to go on a trip to the Pennsylvania Renaissance Fairethat begins Saturday, a court order revealed, less than a year after officials indicted her for her role in the deadly riot.â
Privilege and audacity.

Was told this morning that the child psych division at UVA, which 2 years ago consisted of 7 fellows and 5 attendings, as of today was at 2 fellows and 1 attending after the rest quit due to being overworked and underpaid. The rest were threatening to quit as well until they instituted strict limits on how many and what they would see. Unfortunately, that leaves us in primary care with the untenable options to either manage conditions we have no training or experience in, or tell kids âSucks to be you, good luck with that.â That collapse of the healthcare system that has fallen out of the headlines? It did not go away, it continues apace. Of course, the consequence is that those of us left are carrying more of the load, burning out faster and leaving the field. It is not getting better. At all.
Iâm so sorry.
And the joke is on us here in Ontario . Our premier Doug Ford is promising âbold actionâ after he cut, in real terms, nurseâs wages to the point that far too many of them quit. The âbold actionâ phrase is his way of saying âwe manufactured a crisis so that we can reward our buddies with private health care contractsâ.
With apologies to our cousins⌠we all know how that works outâŚ
