  1. Biden did that, Trump made inflation

  2. With all the breakthroughs in cancer cures or getting close to cures, I don't think it will be too many more years that cancer deaths will start declining. Lets just hope that its affordable for everyone.

  4. The bourgeoisie is a class of business owners and merchants which emerged in the Late Middle Ages, originally as a "middle class" between peasantry and aristocracy. They are traditionally contrasted with the proletariat by their wealth, political power, and education, as well as their access to control of cultural and financial capital.
    The bourgeoisie in its original sense is intimately linked to the political ideology of Liberalism and its existence within cities, recognized as such by their urban charters e.g municipal charters, town privileges), so there was no bourgeoisie apart from the citizenry of the cities.

    In Communist philosophy, the bourgeoisie is the social class that came to own the means of production during modern industrialization and whose societal concerns are the value of private property and the preservation of capital to ensure the perpetuation of their economic dominance in society..

  5. Hopefully they don’t make this drug $300+ per pill like they did insulin
