Is the system screwed up? It sure is. But that doesn't mean that demand doesn't drive the price for the given supply. If people didn't want/need the drug then it wouldn't cost so much.

The Florida man to be proud of! Spitting facts all day.

There are few heroes in Congress. Mr. Moskowitz is one of them.

Moskowitz destroys the GOP for their ridiculous Biden impeachment inquiry,
triggers MAGA Republicans for Donald Trump's dinner with Nick Fuentes,
blasts the GOP for trying to threaten women's reproductive rights and so much more.

BREAKING: 11 Arizona Trump fake electors indicted on state charges including former GOP state chair.

"Just sign them and I'll take care of the rest." -Trump

The GOP has dug itself into such a deep hole over the last 7-8 years
and they just keep digging. My former party is unsavable at this point.

No appetite for music industry horror stories here I guess.
There was a noticeable collapse of truth in the rap game just after Tupac got killed. Jay Z and Puffy systematically tore through the rap game, absorbing all the lyrics and beat production for their own monopoly. The rabbit hole online today is enormous, but some things are starting to line up and add up. Tupac's murder trial has been predicted to be the lynch-pin that will crack this story wide open. Jay Z and Puffy have been using the tactics of sexual humiliation and murder for 30 years now, and have quite literally f****d over every artist under their sway for more than a generation.

If half of what Jaquar Wright says is true the storm is coming for some people. Lot's of suggestions and accusations and conjecture, but some of this stuff is VERY disturbing:

Disgraced Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction in New York has been overturned, on the basis that he did not receive a fair trial.

The New York Court of Appeals said prosecutors in the pivotal #MeToo case called witnesses whose accusations were not part of the charges against him.

The court said that meant he was unfairly tried for past behaviour, and ordered a new trial.

Weinstein, 72, remains in prison. He was separately convicted of rape in LA.

The Silence Breakers, a victims' group, called the reversal "disheartening and profoundly unjust", while lawyers for victims said the decision to retry was a "leap backwards" and "tragic".

The court reached a 4-3 ruling on Thursday, stating that the trial "erroneously admitted testimony of uncharged, alleged prior sexual acts against persons other than the complainants of the underlying crimes."

The decision also said the trial judge compounded the error by letting Weinstein be cross-examined in a way that portrayed him in a "highly prejudicial" light.

"The remedy for these egregious errors is a new trial."

Judge Madeline Singas, one of the dissenters, however said that with the decision, "this Court continues to thwart the steady gains survivors of sexual violence have fought for in our criminal justice system".

Yawn... Don't know how any of this is surprising enough to be disturbing. 95% (generously) of famous hip hop / rap "artists" are misogynistic criminals. They actually state as much in their "lyrics". Anyone who ever thought otherwise had their head in the sand.

It's a claim of antitrust violation, you should address that.

They aren't claiming coca cola can't choose where to advertise, but that doing so togheter with many other companies with collusive intents might be a violation of the Sherman act.

Maybe that's false? but it's you guys who love antitrust laws so, it's a lawyer thing, that you guys created.

in general, anyone quoting anything from MSNBC should have their head examined for propaganda insertion... A Candidate of Manchuria.

If one chooses of free will this view, then don't be stupid portend to represent Democracy.

Coca-Cola isn't a private company?
As in 'private enterprise, not owned by the government'.

Regardless of what you call Coca-Cola, do you think the government should tell them how to spend their money?

I don't feel strongly one way or the other about antitrust laws, but I don't see how this would be relevant to them. You're welcome to address the claim if you'd like to do so.
