Festejan porque le bajan el precio a los medicamentos regulados, pero no cuentan nada de que los pacientes ni siquiera están recibiendo los medicamentos.
@AyalaCarlOzarco
Buenas noticias para millones de colombianos: el Gobierno Nacional redujo el precio máximo de venta de cientos de medicamentos e incorporó 33 nuevos grupos y 4 subgrupos de tratamientos de alto costo al control directo de precios. Esto significa más acceso a medicamentos esenciales para pacientes con enfermedades huérfanas, cáncer, VIH, hemofilia, fibrosis quística y otras condiciones que durante años enfrentaron barreras por sus altos costos.
Mientras algunos hablan de acabar con los derechos, este Gobierno sigue tomando decisiones para cuidar la salud y el bolsillo de la gente. Con una reducción promedio del 7,43 % en el precio máximo de venta de 528 grupos de medicamentos ya regulados, se fortalecen las finanzas del sistema de salud y se avanza hacia un acceso más justo a tratamientos que pueden salvar vidas.

Si el presidente va asumir el liderazgo de la campaña de Cepeda debe renunciar. Cepeda no puede guardar silencio frente a este apoyo de talante totalitario del presidente en campaña abierta

Why do richer economies have more very large firms? This paper shows that the upper tail of the firm size distribution thickens as economies grow. A model of idea search explains why, showing how growth itself can produce rising concentration.

Austrian economics is a scientific endeavor; libertarianism is political philosophy - neither of them advance when folks treat like a ‘movement’ and engage in the political game of banning folks for disagreements. It is just self defeating if the goal is to advance economic science and our understanding of a free society.
Just for the record, as a libertarian I have been persuaded by arguments and historical evidence to be anti-war, pro-immigration, free trade domestically and internationally, bodily autonomy, and freedom of thought. I also think its incumbent on us who advocate for radical libertarian policies to demonstrate that private citizens can through voluntary association effectively address the hardest cases of social ills. Only with this demonstration in hand can we persuasively argue that the government can be discharged of that responsibility. That is why science and philosophical inquiry are at the core of our endeavor, not litmus tests and loyalty oaths.
Especially young people please read this and consider what type of thinker you want to be.

This is a really astonishing claim:
Students in Mississippi & Louisiana score higher on reading tests than students in California & New York despite spending way less money per pupil and having higher child poverty rates.
Decided to double check the data because, if true, this should be alarming for blue state leaders.
And yup, it checks out.
Reading performance (NAEP 2024, Grade 4 reading, average scale score):
Mississippi: 219
Louisiana: 216
New York: 215
California: 212
Child poverty (SAIPE; “estimated percent of people age 0–17 in poverty,” 2023):
Louisiana: 25.2%
Mississippi: 24.3%
New York: 18.6%
California: 15.0%
Per-pupil spending (public K–12 “current expenditures per pupil,” FY2023, inflation-adjusted to FY2023 dollars)
New York: $29,588
California: $18,568
Louisiana: $14,822
Mississippi: $12,238
It should be unacceptable to spend that much more taxpayer money while delivering worse results for students.
If Democrats want to stay relevant, and to deliver for the public, they cannot wait for unions to change. They need to break more often with their friends.

My column on Venezuela in @TheEconomist
“Prosperity does not come from oil, decrees or even benevolent rulers. It comes from rights. Rights create private property. Rights create security. Rights create debate. Rights allow people to invest, to innovate, to dream—and to transform reality. Take rights away, and society withers. Restore them, and recovery is possible.”

⚠️En Países Bajos prohibieron comprar vivienda para ponerla en alquiler (2022). Estimaciones causales concluyen que:
1⃣Aumentaron 4% precios del alquiler por disminuir la oferta.
2⃣Se redujo compras por inversores.
3⃣Afectó negativamente a jóvenes.
4⃣No cambio precios viviendas.
