@Deleted User I take pride in the fact that we don't *need* to mandate maternity leave

I agree

companies can voluntarily do it if they *want* to

it is a perk

not a Right!

thats why the US still innovates more

Everything is a perk

But yea. Women get all forms of birth control and sterilization

Say it with me PERCENTAGE OF GDP

Men get butcus

Who has the highest GDP in the World 🤔

Equality at its finest

Who has the largest GDP than government organizations Paul

Remind me again?

There are several important reasons why health care is so expensive in the United States, and Grossman points out perhaps the most important: the United States effectively subsidizes research and development of drugs and medical devices for the rest of the world.

USA

*Health Care*

one of the biggest issues is that american hospitals can't change providers so they can charge whatever the fuck they like

We are talking about medical development

not shitty single payer systems

i.e, if they're with company A providing catheters, they can't change to company B charging a third for the same product.

that shit's dumb.

These charts show the amount of patents held for NME’s, that is, New Molecular Entities, a completely novel therapeutic compound (as opposed to a new patent on just a reformulation of an existing compound). More specifically, the pie chart on the left shows the country of origin of the inventing company, and the pie chart on the right shows the country that the company/entity attributed the patent to.
