re: “Las Vegas” NP Fraudulently Bills Medicare for ~$900M. Gets $300M

My brother has a small clinic in rural Mississippi that accepts Medicare. I’m surprised at this story - the government paperwork requirements are so onerous that he has to pay a separate full-time clerk and another account manager just to manage Medicare.
Filing a part B claim is as simple as generating the 1500 form and submitting it. As long as it’s a valid e/m or CPT code, Medicare pays without question or delay. You’re just making shite up now.
re: Oregon is planning to REBOUND with a Republican leading the race for Governor.

Most of Oregon east of the Columbia River is very conservative and baw. Its just that the media focuses on Portland and the left leaning Pacific coast
60% of the states population lives in Portland and Salem. The east side has zero power to influence any decisions on the state level. In OR and WA, though WA’s eastern half is larger from a population standpoint than Oregons. The only good a governor can do is maybe stop leftist bullshite coming out of the state house/senate. But those are still essentially a super majority for the Dems. That’s the real reason they focus on Portland. Because unfortunately that’s the only area that could actually change something in these failing PNW states.
re: Executive Order banning Big Wall Street from buying up single-family homes
Posted by YipSkiddlyDooo on 5/12/26 at 4:37 pm to Ailsa
I have no problem with this but the article is very hyperbolic. Certainly some markets are more affected than others, but large institutional investors make up around 1% of the housing market. “Wall Street” could sell every home they own and it wouldn’t make a dent in the overall housing inventory. I guess if you’re desperate to buy in Atlanta (or a few other metros) then this is a wonderful thing…

You can tell how old the average poster on this board is by the number of people who had zero clue this is a parody account.
None of you who are so outraged could be bothered to look at another one of this account’s posts on X? Good lawd.

Unlikely. They’ve had plenty of reasons to move in the past. They’ve either sunk way too much money into huge/lavish campuses, or for some reason don’t think they can hire software engineers in any other state. You may get fewer startups and some outward migration of small tech companies but the big boys won’t go anywhere. The wealthiest execs/owners/founders move and the tax burden just shifts to their high income W2 wage earners.
They may eventually tax people/businesses so much that they move, but this isn’t gonna do it. Just like all of the insane taxes in WA that have been foisted upon Boeing and Microsoft and Amazon and T mobile hasn’t put a dent in their workforce, even if they move some corporate positions to another state.

Yeah those people are not very smart. If you are deliberate with your finances, these cards should pay for themselves.
It’s a huge majority of people who use credit cards and pay them off every month. But I’m sure you are the exception…
We almost exclusively use credit cards and pay them off monthly. But I’m not stupid enough to think my wife and I aren’t probably spending 3%+ more than if we had to physically hand over cash. Luckily we are well-off enough that it doesn’t matter at all.

I got downvoted by a bunch of Ag losers when I suggested that Cargill and other huge Ag corps (ADM, Tyson, Lamb Weston, CHS, etc.) were the ones ruining that sector in our economy in a thread about tariffs.

If you pay interest on credit cards, you’re losing the financial game.
Even a large majority of people who don’t pay interest on credit cards are technically losing the financial game. There’s plenty of data to suggest that individuals spend more than whatever they are earning in rewards when using a credit card compared to cash.
To be ignorant of that fact means you are not as financially literate as you think.
re: Sheriff weighs in on ICE shooting
Posted by YipSkiddlyDooo on 1/11/26 at 3:17 pm to Darnell5445
What I would like this sheriff to answer is: “how did unmarked cars or the use of facemasks by federal agents have any effect SPECIFICALLY on the event he is referring to?”
He is implying that had the federal agents all shown their face, or been in vehicles with law enforcement markings that the militant lesbian would not have agitated, obstructed, and then threatened the law enforcement officers with her vehicle. That’s absolute nonsense.

Bookmark this thread then.
1) Elon has never accurately predicted a launch/production timeline for any product he’s involved with.
2) I work with current surgical robots. I operate on people. We are so far away from complete surgical robot autonomy, this will be like every other prediction he’s made.
3) even if there was a robot that could autonomously perform surgery without any human input or intervention, it still wont be used in the western world due to regulations within the next “48 months.”
Still not sure why you’re white knighting for Elon so hard in a field/use case you clearly know nothing about.
