… if you aren’t pissed off, ready for a machete bit of fun, then you are more dead than the billionaires and their henchwomen and men give you credit for!
A photo is worth a million cuts to the soul:
I was getting to know a new PCP, primary care physician, yesterday. I was told it was unusual I’d get to talk to Dr. V, that he was so booked up, and under Medicare, well, you know that game. My old DO up in Lincoln City is about to retire. So many retirements, young and old.
The guy I got is another DO, who did grow up in Spokane (I did my time there) and did Army MD residency, and now, his Vietnamese America wife is a doctor, and they met in California, Pomona, at med school, Western University of Health Sciences.
According to Dr. V, this hospital system he has been in has shifted from patient centered to profit centered. He’s seen his wage go down 40 percent, doubled his panels (caseload) and pushes less and less time with us, the patient, and more time putting in data into the machine.
The entire system is broken, but made to break.
Here, “It feels so unjust that we, as largely immigrant doctors serving this working class immigrant community in Queens, have to beg to get what we need to pay our rent, and from a corporation like Mount Sinai that touts its commitment to New York communities,” Dr. Tanathun Kajornsakchai said in a statement last week.
About 63% of the population in the hospital’s neighborhood was born outside of the United States, according to government data included in a 2018 municipal report.
Dr. Irfa Khan said doctors don’t want to strike but have no choice if Mount Sinai won’t negotiate in good faith. The hospital has said it has been working in “good faith” and accused the union of being “inflexible.”
“We were here when Mount Sinai needed us, where is Mount Sinai when the Elmhurst doctors and community needs them?” Khan said in the union’s statement.
Khan told CNN affiliate WCBS at the picket line Monday that doctors work at both Elmhurst and Mount Sinai hospitals but are paid less.
“We’re doing the same work, we’re seeing the same patients … at the same two hospitals. We’re working along the same attendings (physicians),” she said. “Why not Elmhurst? Why is there a difference?”
The doctors, who are undergoing post-graduate training in their specialties, say they are paid $7,000 less than residents at Mount Sinai.
So, in a rural county, Lincoln, with housing issues of not enough and too expensive, and not much to do here, cultural wise, we are like thousands of other counties fighting for health care.
Fucking staffing agencies and hedge funds:
Private equity companies pool money from wealthy investors to buy their way into various industries, often slashing spending and seeking to flip businesses in three to seven years. While this business model is a proven moneymaker on Wall Street, it raises concerns in health care, where critics worry the pressure to turn big profits will influence life-or-death decisions that were once left solely to medical professionals.
Nearly $1 trillion in private equity funds have gone into almost 8,000 health care transactions over the past decade, according to industry tracker PitchBook, including buying into medical staffing companies that many hospitals hire to manage their emergency departments.
Two firms dominate the ER staffing industry: TeamHealth, bought by private equity firm Blackstone in 2016, and Envision Healthcare, bought by KKR in 2018. Trying to undercut these staffing giants is American Physician Partners, a rapidly expanding company that runs ERs in at least 17 states and is 50% owned by private equity firm BBH Capital Partners. (The surprising reason why you aren’t guaranteed to see a doctor when you go to the ER)
[Photo: At a two-day company training put on by American Physician Partners in 2020, chief medical officer Dr. Tony Briningstool teaches doctors and nurse practitioners how to safely use sedation in the emergency department. As a money-saving strategy, emergency rooms are employing fewer doctors and relying instead on midlevel practitioners.]
The Rise of the Corporate-Catholic “Zombie Hospital” [As of 2016, 18.5% of hospitals were religiously affiliated: 9.4% were Catholic-owned nonprofit hospitals, 5.1% were Catholic-affiliated hospitals, and 4.0% were other religious nonprofit hospitals.]
Tenet, one of the nation’s largest health care systems, has expanded its reach in part by marketing its willingness to keep the Catholic rules in place. “Tenet was an early for-profit health care system that moved to acquire Catholic hospitals, and it basically established that it was willing to comply with Catholic doctrine following the purchase of these hospitals,” Elizabeth Sepper, professor at the University of Texas Austin School of Law, said. “It was a tool that Tenet used to break into markets and to acquire Catholic hospitals that were up for sale that otherwise probably would have gone to a Catholic health care system or another nonprofit.”
Sepper coined the term “zombie hospitals” to describe the creations resulting from these mergers. Such hospitals have little to no remaining connection to a church but are bound to follow religious restrictions on health care, sometimes through agreements attached to the land itself that purport to prohibit forever the use of the property for sterilization, abortion, or aid-in-dying. When the private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management announced it would acquire the six-hospital Caritas Christi Health Care system in Boston in 2010, The Wall Street Journal quipped, “Catholic nuns, meet your new owners: A three-headed dog from hell.” The sale, Sepper notes, included a $25 million penalty if the archbishop determined that the for-profit owners were not upholding the Church’s principles.
Money money, and the fact we have no people’s health care, no single payer health care, we are now in this upside down world:
David Cyganowski, a mergers and acquisitions expert who advises hospital systems on business transactions, told the audience at the symposium that the health care industry is “on the verge of significant consolidation” and seeing “unprecedented levels of partnership discussions,” as health care providers small and large try to figure out how to turn a profit in a changing market.
The business climate, he suggested, is ideal for companies looking to reinvent their business models.
“We are at the tipping point already in markets, whether they’re Massachusetts or Connecticut, or Illinois or out West, where health care systems are coming together very, very quickly,” said Cyganowski, managing director of Kaufman Hall & Associates. “That represents an opportunity for us to let the lines blur, think out of the box, and design partnerships that really are going to ultimately improve the quality of care that we’re delivering.” (A Catholic foray into for-profit health)
So, the world burns, the world is run by Mafia, the world is an open cesspool of hedge funds and BlackRock Eichmann’s. War against China?
China is Ready for HOT WAR with the U.S. as Yellen Visit FAILS. China likes this woman? My god, China. She is the enemy.
This is what the Neocons, the Jewish Cons, the running amok folk want: WHY WHY WHY are these Jewish Leaders wanting war with CHINA?
REALITY.
Kow-Towing to corporations and the military. And here we are, these people in the Blinken-Nuland-Yellen Zionist-Israel First Machiavelli Biden Den. ‘We all have a stake in this’: White House holds first-ever Jewish Women’s Forum
Shifting from medicine, to interesting things, for sure, in the Biden Bumbling Bingo Game.
In early December of 2022, the socialist president of Peru, Pedro Castillo, was overthrown in a political coup engineered by the conservative-dominated Congress and immediately thrown into prison.
Vice-President Dina Boluarte was installed as the new leader having received the endorsement of the military and the police.
Simultaneously, the United States administration of President Joe Biden recognized the new political order making it appear as if the coup had the full support of the oval office in Washington, D.C. Since December, the people of Peru have engaged in mass demonstrations, strikes and blockades of the mining areas aimed at forcing the resignation of Boluarte and the holding of new elections.
In recent weeks the announcement that the Pentagon would deploy approximately 1,100 troops to Peru in what is described as Resolute Sentinel 2023, has been met with opposition inside the country and throughout the regions of South America, Central America and the Caribbean. The official explanation from the White House regarding the sending of troops to Peru is that they will carry out training exercises among the military and police.

Oh, why so many hedge funds in the hands of the chosen ones? Man, here, on this forum, here you go: 1. George Soros 2. David Tepper 3. Steven Cohen 4. John Paulson 5. Carl Icahn 6. James Simons 9. Larry Robins 10. Leon Cooperman
Christians were banned from lending and so Jews supplied credit to Christians. Venetian and Genoese traders lived in ghettos, not just Jews. Every foreigner of the city would live in a ghetto. Some Venetian ghettos were founded as far as Constantinople and the Middle East. The ghetto would operate effectively autonomously and was often walled. The Venetians living in Constantinople were also citizens of Venice, whereas the Jews were simply citizens of nowhere, or as they now like to say “citizens of the world”. The rootless nature of traders, the antipathy they had to their host nation, and the web of international connections was the same as that of the Jews. The Jews did occupy a trader class in Spain many centuries ago, and were taken down for it. The Romans were seen by the Egyptians the same way the Jews were seen by the Spanish.
International networks of trade and credit were more profitable. Once the Jews were able to exploit this system through real international banking, they became a powerful and wealthy group. Now, all Jews cannot all be wealthy and poor at the same time as most anti-semites like to argue, but why are Jews over represented in banking and finance? it’s like asking why fish are over represented in the ocean.
Nepotism, antipathy to nation/rootlessness, pilpul (sophistry, deceit, and linguistic flexibility– the same reason Jewish comedians are over represented), and financial tradition, are the reasons mainly. Jews beget Jews.
It was Codreanu that wrote: “A country has the Jews it deserves. Just as mosquitoes can thrive and settle only in swamps, likewise the former can only thrive in the swamps of our sins”, a hard line I suppose but the essence it demonstrably true.
Well, what a great debate, and then: from a Jewish student. Ok here is a real answer: Why are most Hedge Fund managers Jewish?
1. Higher average IQ.
2. Many Jews worked these trades for centuries. Children have a better understanding passed down through tradition or seeing adults in the business to model. Maybe some nepotism.
3. Culture prizes education and intelligence.
4. “New money” isn’t looked down on within their circles. Less traditionalist, more ruthless when competing.
5. Anti-authoritarian culture. Little children taught to question everything.
6. Less attractive physically, so having a lot of money to attract a good mate matters more.
7. Comfortable thinking about systems and abstractions. Not just in the high IQ sense but some type of cleverness and mental playfulness that you see in Jewish humor or writing.
8. Known for complaining a lot. Not prone to feeling at ease or satisfied. Very powerful trait in cut-throat businesses like finance.
9. Socially ostracized until somewhat recently, so they built up networks among themselves.
10. Close-knit families take care of their kids for life. Easier to take big risks early on if you have a backup plan.
11. Tend not to drink to excess which dulls the mind and body.
Of 25 Top Money Managers, 17 Are Jewish —
Jews are well-known for being entrepreneurs, traders and business-people who beat the market odds. Out of the best 25 money managers since the advent of American Capitalism, 17 are Jewish! It is something that leaves many people dumbfounded because its probability of occurring is almost zero therefore very difficult to compute. Some of these in top 25 are of course very famous names: George Soros, Steven Cohen, James Simon, David Tepper, John Paulson, Carl Icahn, Daniel Loeb, Leon Cooperman, Seth Klarman, Israel Englander, David Einhorn, Bruce Kovner.
The only Jewish-majority nation on the planet – Israel – is very tiny and with a very small population, yet Jews are renowned as the best performing hedge-fund managers on the planet. Figures from the Israel Central Bureau of Statistics (ICBS) indicate that the Jewish nation of Israel has a population of just 8.1 million. In addition, the total number of people of Jewish origin who are living in the Diaspora is roughly 7.8 million. This puts the total number of Jews on the entire planet at around 15.9 million out of a global population of 7.3 billion (7300 million), which is a percentage of a meager 0.22%! From the figures it seems, only about one out of every 459 people (1/459) globally is a Jew, yet Jews literally lead the world when it comes to business and entrepreneurship.
Some of the Top Jewish Hedge Fund Managers Are
George Soros: the chairman and founder of Soros Fund Management, as well as the founder of Quantum Fund. He is reported to have returned 20%-plus annualized in the last four decades. What this means is that if $10 million was invested with his hedge fund 40 years ago and compounded at an annual rate of 20%, it would be worth a whopping $14 billion today! Can you image what 30% annualized compounded returns could make?
James Simon (who was raised in Jewish family) is the first in our hedge funds return rank with 35%+ annualized returns in 27 years. David Tepper is another hedge fund start with 27% annualized returns for 22 years active management. Steven A. Cohen has achieved more than 30% annualized returns for 20+ years. All of them were also raised in Jewish families.
Other top hedge fund managers who are either wholly or partly Jewish include:
John Paulson (Jewish mother, non-Jewish father), who made 12% + return for 19 years. Carl Icahn (both parents ethnic Jews but father an atheist) returned 21% annualized for 15 years.
Others include Larry Robins, Daniel Loeb, Leon Cooperman, Eddie Lampert, Daniel Och, Nelson Peltz, Israel Englander, Seth Klarman, David Einhorn and Marc Lasry, Michael Steinhardt, Bruce Kovner.
Lends pause, no? Jewish Business News.
1) The Location and Timing of Jewish Immigration into the U.S.
Nearly everybody in the United States today is a descendant of immigrants from across the globe, including Jews. But geographically, Jewish immigration was different in that it overwhelmingly favored unprecedented success in finance, especially in the field of investment management.
2) Unavailability of Alternative Career Options for Jews
Jewish focus on finance and associated urban trades dates back to the Middle Ages and beyond. This did not come about by chance but was prompted by a number of factors, some of them not so positive. In Catholic Europe, where Christinas were forbidden to lend money for interest to one another, Jews stepped in to provide much needed capital. But this was just about the only thing that Jews could do since Christians discriminated against Jews and barred them from nearly all other occupations, leaving business and trading as almost the only profitable venture they could engage in.
3) Claims of Higher Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
Apart from claims of Jews simply being smarter, it is also asserted that Jewish parents would persistently encourage their children to aim for the best in every single thing they did. These parents reasoned that by being the very best, their children would at least be considered for some jobs and careers due to their outstanding abilities.
4) Jewish culture has evolved to encourage a very strong focus on academic literacy and scholarship.
5) A Culture of Prudence and Financial Saving.
6) Sense of Togetherness and Love for One Another.
In conclusion, and on a light note, with 17 out of the best 24 hedge fund managers — and 8 out of the top 10 — being Jewish, maybe it is time we all requested Jews to teach us these things so that we can at least try be like them!
It is remarkable, no, that we have no discussion about the great roots and cross-country affiliations Jewish people have, and where they go to school, and who they talk with, mentor with, hold audience with, and their values, their orthodoxy and secularness, etc.
But Zelensky? Blinken? Nuland? Yellen?

In the end, these are the chosen people’s times: It’s a scene fit for a cyber-thriller: . . . a global giant of technology compelled by the most powerful nation’s intelligence agency to control narratives. Yet, this isn’t a scene from a science fiction novel but an unfolding reality. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has been pressuring Facebook to clamp down on alleged Russian “disinformation,” based on recommendations from Ukrainian intelligence. Intriguingly, the term “disinformation” is broadly construed by Ukrainian authorities, potentially encompassing views that simply oppose the Ukrainian government’s perspective. But interestingly, it’s sometimes the opposite.
