I haven’t looked at the FCC map but I bet Starlink takes Last Mile credit for everywhere.
So every tax payer pays Starlink plus tax payer that are their customers pay Starlink these high prices.
In the US the tax payer subsidizes almost all drug research. Between 2010 and 2019 the NIH spend $184 Billion on all but 2 drugs approved by the FDA.
It worked out to about $1.5 Billion for each R&D product with a novel target and about $600 mill for each R&D product with multiple targets.

I’m not sure how much is subsidized outside of NIH but I’d imagine other countries are doing the same.
Why should companies own the whole IP?
How does National Institutes of Health (NIH) investment in pharmaceutical innovation compare with investment by the pharmaceutical industry? In this cross-sectional study of 356 drugs approved by the US Food and Drug Administration from 2010 to ...
When I was in, the bs spewed was that you should vote Republican to get pay increases because the Dems won’t do it. Of course the GOP also likes to chip away at the VA and other veteran aftercare. We also had personnel equipment shortages like armor during OEF/OIF and Congress just shrugged.
Unfortunately there are a lot of impressionable kids and they pass the same dumbassery on when they are old timers. It is effective because you’re basically indoctrinated to trust senior leaders.
The US bicameral system is the House and the Senate (a two chamber legislature).
What system is the better alternative that we should riot about? You said it and I’m just asking you to explain.
I don’t know much about it but I assume it would be any texts white washing history. As an example I grew up in the south and learned about John Brown and Harriet Tubman with basically facts that can be regurgitated. Nothing diving into the day-to-day hardships and anything sounding too sympathetic.
The rationale for the civil war was white washed to “state’s rights” and specifically “slavery wasn’t the major cause”. For 'what" state’s rights obviously due to economic ones because the north was purposely attempting to keep the south down.
Another example was that slaves had a better life as slaves and many came back! The ‘silent racism’ of the North was even worse than the South’s violent racism because in the South they could live (in slavery) while on the North they will be destitute and invisible.
The point being, if it’s attempting to redo that, then it is the overall message and subtext of the curriculum.
I can’t keep up with the propaganda from the GOP.
Sometimes Russia and China are omnipotent and scary bad guys that can do anything. Then sometimes they are bumbling and dumb bad guys that just can’t do anything right. In the case of Russia, sometimes they are the misunderstood good guys.
