@KayKosmos And we all need to be clear: The government issues our currency that funds private net savings. Banks issue loans (private debt). And everything gets paid for either by government spending or bank lending:

@KayKosmos 2/. Among other things, federal taxes regulate inflation by removing excess gov spending from the private sector. For any government funded program, the question is never about affordability, but whether it will create unacceptable levels of inflation. medium.com/@ClaireConnell…
@KayKosmos 3/. Single payer seems to have a deflationary, not inflationary, bias:

This is true. I feel more hopeful this morning. We all need our lists priorized and ready. What do you want Congress to fix and what is the timeline / process? Let's make it easy for them by all of us being volunteer staffers....
There are a lot of legitimate immigration issues and there are xommunities that either struggle or rely on immigrants that are waybout of balance and will need focused, local help. But first: get those detention centers shut all the way down and get those kids some psych care.
If we do not, we will not be able to say, pearls clutched, "where were they radicalized?"

1 So who researched and wrote the core parts of the dossier?
It looks like it was a team effort.
Most of the textual evidence points to Glenn Simpson and his wife Mary Jacoby as the architects of the dossier framework.
2 This can be gleaned from Jacoby’s June 24, 2017 Facebook posting (promptly deleted w/most of her SM activity after the project derailed) where she brags abt her husband’s leading role in its composition and vents her frustration abt Steele monopolizing the limelight.
3 When it comes to the research, promo & distribution work, the linkage shows that a fair amnt of ‘staging’ activity tk place in
🇺🇸US (pre-dossier stage) and in 🇬🇧UK

Ad-tech intermediary lobbyists use Google and FB to massively overstate benefits of tracking, news at 11. Publishers waking up to this after years of being on the losing end of the Lumascape.

This chart gets "old news" reaction from smarties, or a "how can this go on" reaction from others.

But there's another angle: @acfou estimates fraud at 20%, It could be 40%. Google takes 60% of ad spend, $80B in USA last year. 0.2 x 0.6 x $80B = $9.6B; 0.4 x 0.6 x $80B = $19.2B.
The @guardian bought out its own inventory the other year and got paid 30 pence on the pound. They just did a similar test and found 72% ad fraud (domain spoofers) for video ads: mediapost.com/publications/a…. Ad fraud is huge and all exchanges (Google runs the biggest) profit from it.

Banks in Nigeria never close bank accounts especially if it is a corporate account. They might tell you that they have, but they really don't. To be sure, insist on getting a letter of closure and a statement showing that the balance is zero and the last movement is a closure ref
The reason why this is important is that while u think ur account is closed, it's rather accumulating charges. A debit bal will then attract default interest of upto 45%. In a few years, it can be millions in debit. Shd you need a bank line, you'll need to clear that debit first.
People and corporations need to be aware that there are many credit bureau in Nigeria operated by the CBN - CRMS and other private ones like XDS and CRC. They are recipients of your credit history. If you have a loan, they receive monthly status update as provided by your banks.
