so, that’s this. Americans changed the way colour is spelt, changed the meaning of billions, what a gallon is and are now changing how percentages work ? fucks sake!
Am I dumb? How can one cut a price by over 100%
also with him getting rid of Medicare part D, the actual headline will probably soon be “Trump increases drug prices by 600%”
No one has heard of anything like that cause it’s a fucking lie.
Text “pot us” to get enough weed delivered to understand the math they’re using
They’re paying people to pick up their pills?
If they were cut 600% that means you’re paying patients 5 times more than you were previously selling the drugs to take the drugs away.
Oh sorry, what he meant is his son"s company is getting this discount so he doesn’t shake their industry down and he will sell it to regular Americans at full price on Trumprx.
Finally, I’m getting paid to take drugs. HELL YEAH
That people now get paid to take drugs, receiving 5x the money they used to pay for those drugs before, is surely proof that America is great again.
US President requires remedial maths class. Is there no end to the shame he brings?
When you have to sue to keep your transcripts hidden…yeah the dude never passed
he probably never passed remedial math, remember his dad had to pay for most of his classes to pass him. in my CC there are people that struggle in arithimetic
600% exists. For example:
$50 item…
Let’s take 10% off…50x0.1=5…50-5=45, so $45.00.
Let’s take 600% off…50x6=300…50-300=-250, so -$250.So I gotta go shopping soon for these things.
Asterisk means italics which is why this is a bit hard to follow.
Let’s take 10% off…50*0.1=5…50-5=45, so $45.00.
Let’s take 600% off…50*6=300…50-300=-250, so -$250.I was wondering why it didn’t make sense, thanks. The inconsistent decimals and use of ellipses to separate ideas probably doesn’t help either, though.
Darn!
yeah but you’re using the wrong way to calculate percentage. Not the same one Trump uses.
The American way?
So it was cut by 10 dollars?
Kennedy said, “President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. There’s two ways of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that’s a 600% reduction.”
a different way
Well, it’s just plainly wrong and shows obvious lack of understanding how percentages work
We prefer to call them alternative understandings
Alternative facts
Oh gosh. Oh gosh, no. You can’t reverse percentage like that 😂🫣 The secondhand shame!
it’s not even right, that would only make it 60 dollars.
10 * 600% = 60
Even worse 😄
So the wrong way.
Using that Terrance Howard math
I wonder if all the scumbags getting their grift on behind Trump just straight up lie to him to get him to get soundbytes for fox news or something.
There is literally no universe whatsoever where Trump actually cares about fucking over senior citizens making their drugs more expensive which is apparently what’s happening now and almost guaranteed to be the reason why he made this claim. He wouldn’t care about it if it doesn’t make him any money, that’s literally all he cares about. I feel like there’s a really really good chance the fucking assholes doing that just told Trump “we cut prices by 600%” so his dumb ass can just say it and make it “reality” for the base.
medicaid payments were stopped by trump last week to ONLY BLUe states, because he is so vindictive they dint support him last election. and it dropped off msms and reddit and it wasnt metnioned since then. im hearing from my state they are starting to put restrictions for medicaid because of the payment being stalled.
or before that schumer/gop ended the shutdown last year and kick tons of people off of the super-supsidized aca plans.
Don’t forget the work requirements for Medicaid they’re doing federally. Oz (yes that Dr Oz) wants to make them totally universal for anyone on Medicaid - gotta work at least 80 hrs a month to stay on. Terminally ill? Disabled to the point you physically can’t work? Too bad, do it or die.
The fascists figured out if you’re actively killing the “useless eaters”, people get mad about it. If you just allow them to die through neglect and systemic failure, they’re more OK with it.
Dr oz always wanted medicaid to be gone so they can have more tax cuts, this is a way to degrade it. i know someone that is on medicad but isnt working right now, he is inf or a rude awakening. i make too much for it, and i had to buy insurance with subsidies, dental isnt covered.
republicans will be whining when they get of medicaid, lol. they will get around to medi-care eventually thats where all the older 55+ are. COL is pretty much super skewed in red states, because the lcol, it makes republicans look like they arnt “poor” in those areas.
Here, take this $8 pill, $40, and tell all your friends.
I’ll be really mad if this ends up being a roofie.
Too good for free drugs and money, huh?
Not when you find forty random dollars in your pocket.
Those fuckers! I was the one that cut the drug prices. All they do is lie! /s
