@mcuban Could you breakdown a couple examples in medical/medicine space?

American-made products are not impossible. Stories about iPhones costing $37,000 or laptops costing $100,000 are psy-ops, sometimes pushed by foreign adversaries but more commonly by American corporations that want anything but an upset to the status quo.

Quick update for this saga… Patient called back today with their newly-issued mail-order prescription in hand. The prescription in question wasn’t even written by their primary physician. It came from a prescriber they had never heard of/or seen. I researched the provider on my own, come to find out they have 2 practice addresses: 1 in Ohio and the other in Eagan, MN. PO BOX 211699 Guess who is located in Eagan, MN? Devoted Medical Group Professional Corporation and related Devoted Medical practices. So, @DevotedHealth utilized one of their very own physicians to issue a fraudulent prescription for a patient who they’ve never seen or even knew. Then shipped it off to the patient without their consent, thinking the patient wouldn’t question it? Wow.

NEW: We've just released an updated Sunlight Report on UnitedHealth Group. Our research now identifies 2,807 entities across UnitedHealth's sprawling corporate empire, including 376 additional entities since our original report in 2025. Here's what the Center for Health & Democracy (@cforhd) found.

Story Time: Buckle up for this one. Patient called today pissed off. They weren’t pissed at me, more so pissed at their insurance company @DevotedHealth and @CVSHealthPBM For the past month, @DevotedHealth has been pestering them about switching their medications over to their mail order @CVSHealthPBM First it was atorvastatin and Jardiance, because they said the patient would have “cheaper” copays. The patient called us to verify those prices. Our prices were identical to what they would have paid at mail order. Patient told @CVSHealthPBM NO! They wanted to stay local. A few days later, patient gets a message from @CVSHealthPBM stating they had two prescriptions waiting to be sent to the patient. Just needed the go ahead to mail them out. It was for the same 2 prescriptions they had said no to a few days prior. Patient called them back and told them no, they want to continue getting them locally…. That was the end of it. Until today… Patient called back and said now @CVSHealthPBM has another prescription for metformin ready for me and has already mailed it out. It’s a prescription we have been filling at our independent pharmacy all of this calendar year at a $0 copay. Patient told them, I didn’t authorize you to get this prescription ready for me at mail order, how did you receive the prescription? @CVSHealthPBM told them that their Dr. had authorized a new prescription for them. Patient calls their Dr. Dr. states they never sent a prescription to mail order @CVSHealthPBM So, let me sum this up and put a nice little bow on it for you: @CVSHealthPBM requested a new prescription from patient’s Dr. without their consent. @CVSHealthPBM prepared the new prescription for patient without their consent. And finally, @CVSHealthPBM mailed out the prescription for the patient without their consent. I don’t know who is ultimately at fault for this, but it’s damn sure not the patient… The patient keeps saying NO, but @CVSHealthPBM says we don’t give a shit, we’re going to do it anyway. @CMSGov @DrOzCMS @RobertKennedyJr @realDonaldTrump

Marc Andreessen reveals why housing, health care, and education keep getting more expensive while everything else gets cheaper "There's basically three components to the American dream. A house near great job opportunities, great health care for you and your family, and sending your kids to good schools" "If you disaggregate the economy over the last 25 years, everything that technology touches basically collapses in price. Television sets, computer games, anything with electronics in it. But if you chart housing, education, and health care, the prices of those things are skyrocketing" "The government restricts supply, zoning laws and university certifications. And then the government responds to the political pressure caused by the rising prices by subsidizing demand. And of course, if you subsidize demand and a fixed supply, you get skyrocketing prices"

Would love to hear @mcuban's thoughts on this.
