US healthcare costs twice as much per person as in Canada
[edit]$6,319 for Canada in 2022. $12,555 for the US in 2022. Yet Canadians have a longer average lifespan. Single-payer healthcare is why. See: List of countries by life expectancy.

Trump's proposed tax cuts for the rich

Gaza and Lebanon. Some of the last bastions of settler colonialism
[edit]Return to top. And its kept in place mainly by US aid. US could easily force Israel to remove its settlers by threatening to remove all aid and protection. Peace would ensue in the Middle East. The occupation is not the main problem. Settlers are. The US, even after the occupation ended, has bases in Germany and Japan to this day, but no settlers. US, and then Germany, did not allow Nazis in power, nor the existence of the Nazi party. Just like Hamas could be blocked from power. A road could be opened between Gaza and the West Bank. Just like the road from the West to Berlin before the wall fell. A free Palestine state, except for some non-interfering US/Israeli/UN/etc. bases.

Putin is wanted for arrest by the court for alleged crimes connected to Russia's invasion of Ukraine."
- Nov 21, 2024. Associated Press. Top war-crimes court issues arrest warrants for Netanyahu and others in Israel-Hamas fighting. "the threat of arrest now complicates any travel abroad by Netanyahu and Gallant. EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said the warrants are binding on all 27 members countries of the European Union. France signaled it could arrest Netanyahu if he came to its territory. Foreign Ministry spokesman Christophe Lemoine called it a 'complex legal issue' but said France supports the court’s actions."

Censorship on Wikipedia
[edit]
See User:Timeshifter/Userboxes for many userboxes. See also this old essay: User:Timeshifter/Unchecked admin misconduct. Admins with biases, combined with a few biased editors can block verified notable info. Happens all the time. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Countering systemic bias. See: Systemic bias and cognitive bias. See confirmation bias where editors only post references that agree with their viewpoints. And: Criticism of Wikipedia. Some of the following info may no longer be censored by the time you read this. Some censorship comes and goes depending on the whims of groups of editors. Examples of censorship: • Seven JFK Parkland Hospital ER doctors (see documentary and discussion) who testified on video that there was an entrance wound from the front; meaning that more than one shooter was required. Also, a separate interview with Dr. Robert N. McClelland who was there. • Roswell UFO craft, 2 crash sites, and alien body retrieval were real according to eyewitness U.S. Army officer Walter Haut. Haut issued the initial July 1947 "flying disc" press release. His 2002 notarized affidavit tells all. It was released in a 2007 book after his death in 2005. It is on pages 239-242 of the 2022 edition: Witness to Roswell, 75th Anniversary Edition: Unmasking the Government's Biggest Cover-up (more eyewitnesses). 36 pages previewed in Google Books. Click "preview" button and scroll down to pages 239-240. Search within the book. Moonwalker Dr. Edgar Mitchell wrote the foreword. I have the inexpensive Kindle ebook. The 20 paragraph affidavit is online here: [5] (page 14). [6][7]. Haut's daughter, Julie Shuster, in 2002, 3 years before his death, "verbally discussed each and every sentence" of the affidavit with him. She said it was not a deathbed confession. See Sept 2007 MUFON UFO Journal: Issue 473. Page 15. And this article from Special Broadcasting Service. Archived. See Julie Shuster on IMDb. More info: [8][9][10][11].

| Trump's 2017 tax cuts for the rich. |
 |
| On average, taxpayers in the income groups highlighted in yellow will incur a net cost (shown as a positive figure as this reduces the budget deficit), due in part to reduced healthcare subsidies. Higher income taxpayers receive a benefit via tax cuts (shown as a negative number as this increases the budget deficit). The percent of taxpayers in each income group is also shown for the 2023 period. "Taxpayer" in the chart refers to a tax return, meaning it could represent one person or a married couple filing jointly, among other options. [19][20]. Commons source. |

You have GOT to be the coolest Wikisloth with super-powers that I ever met!! For a Sloth, you sure move at a quick pace!! :) Do you wear a "super cape", I wonder? That would really complete the whole outfit and mystique.. I keep trying to think of things I could maybe do for you since you are such a blessing and a help... Hmmm. Did you ever contact Roger Ebert before his untimely demise? Is there perhaps a photo of someone that I can search for on your behalf? Just say the words. I feel a great debt to you for your help over these years. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 12:00, 17 August 2013 (UTC) WikiProject Ireland Collaboration Thank you for initiating this project. There may be a great opportunity for it - please check out talk:Ireland#Ireland article names: Request for Remedy 2 and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ireland Collaboration. — Sebastian 06:31, 27 January 2009 (UTC) The barnstars below were copied from my user talk page, and its archives.

[edit]ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer and Wikipedia finances
[edit]Update on Wikimedia's financial health. Wikipedia Signpost/2023-11-20/News and notes.
Wikipedia Signpost: Golden parachutes: Record severance payments at Wikimedia Foundation. 22 May 2023. This is outrageous. Just another example of the concentration of wealth and income into the hands of the 1% in the US.
See: ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer: Wikimedia Foundation Org. It is interesting to look at the greatly increasing salaries of CEOs of nonprofits over the years. Far faster than other salaries. Salary transparency is a wonderful leveling tool. ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer shows how some CEOs tried to sneak in a $300,000 pay increase one year, but had to drop back the following year. Why would I donate to a "nonprofit" like that?
This is part of a pattern: Richest 1% bag nearly twice as much wealth as the rest of the world put together over the past two years. And: The First Trillionaire: No Cause for Celebration.
