Well they saved "258 million" people from fentanyl overdose in 100 days; finding half of them jobs in a week should be no problem.

Capitalism isn't unique in perpetuating injustice, but it certainly excels at it, with passive exponentiality and unprecedented scalability.

Regarding comparison to planned economies, I was solely referring to resource distribution. Planned economies (including the planned aspects of mixed economies) typically have significantly more equitable distribution of resources than capitalism. Certainly there is still massive inequality, but it is far less than capitalism. E.g. the Gini index for USSR/Russia basically doubled when capitalism replaced communism.

Amplifying that last point:

• Capitalism amplifies and perpetuates injustice. E.g. descendants of both enslaving and enslaved are receiving exponentially multiplied effects of actions 100+ years ago.
• Because wealth is power, concentrated wealth often receives far better than average returns by rigging systems in its favor.

Even ignoring these perversions, capitalism is terrible at answering the economic question, "for whom to produce." This isn't much of a change relative to previous systems, but it compares unfavorably in this regard to planned economies.

We find that a 10% minimum wage hike translates into a 0.36% increase in the prices of grocery products. This magnitude is consistent with a full pass-through of cost increases into consumer prices.

Reminds me of the book Beyond the Veil of Stars. People travel between worlds by putting their minds into alien species, some of which are quite foreign (e.g. a rodent with multiple bodies), and folks get pretty messed up.

For more context, this is in part the result of a 2021 settlement with the state of Washington over them doing the opposite: https://www.npr.org/2021/09/27/1040968238/greyhound-warrantless-searches-lawsuit-settlement

The settlement only forces this behavior in Washington though, so good on Greyhound for deciding that it is the right policy everywhere.

That is not the correct form of a syllogism. The second premise should be "Some C are A" leading to the conclusion "Some C are B". With the structure you provided, it is easy to produce invalid conclusions from true premises:

• All planets are round
• Some fruits are round
• Therefore: Some fruits are planets

Whereas a correctly structured syllogism might be:

• All coconuts are round
• Some fruits are coconuts
• Therefore: Some fruits are round

Strange things are afoot

7 bills have passed the Senate, one has been signed into law: Congress.gov search

(note: the filter doesn't include bills starting in the House, but there aren't any relevant ones)

Also, the "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2025" and "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act" were "filibustered" (failed to reach cloture).

In the EU-wide survey conducted by Eurostat, participants were asked whether their household could afford the adequately heat the home. No fixed temperature was specified; answers are based on self-assessment.
