I think you are reading too much into my comment. Also not sure where the question of racism is coming from. > I don't care how deep you are into which edgy internet community. That would be youtube? ( https://www.youtube.

You are right(I would agree with mikestew's comment as well), I haven't thought about it in this terms before originally commenting about it here. He created large companies from nothing, invented rare disease drug and is a pretty

I have been following a lot of his social media activities for a while, it's sad to see this happen. He is known for making jokes/tolling people. Also, part of his expertise is in pricing things and his net worth is supposedly in

Thanks, I didn't realize this aspect of inflation. Although I'd imagine the straight forward measure is good enough when it is used for relative comparisons between top x% to bottom y%.

Staring at the chart, 1980 doesn't seem that significant. It shows from 1970s to 1980s, almost every major has seen an increase in women graduates. I don't know much about this subject, best I can do is pass around a link(video) I

I don't have much understanding of wider picture of drug prices and insurance to know it, but there certainly could be such issues. I think the comment I replied to was edited or I might have accidentally replied to wrong comment, I am

By his explanation: There are only a small amount of patient that patients that needs this drug. I think the number was around 2000. Also drugs are not the largest part of insurances pay for.

I would like to know more about this if you have sources, I have been following Martin Shkreli on a lot of social media for a while and by his explanations, there shouldn't be any person hurt as result of the price hike that he is famo

Besides adblock + auto updates, tell them how some of the scams work. Show them some example screenshots/videos etc. from different areas. Enough to make them think twice about what they are allowing to run on their computer. Scammers

Why is this even a consideration, people seem to create a new one every now and then and become all giddy about it. If there is no shortage, we should not be creating more humans. I wish human birth was more regulated. Once born, if people

If not with Facebook and Alphabet, there would still be most of those companies selling their products, with other means or site. There's not much that Facebook adds other than number of people it has using their site during their off
