Here's a stunning statistic: DC-based providers received almost 30% of all Medicaid payments nationwide under the billing code for community psychiatric support. More from @stanveuger in Capital Commonsense:
I did this to myself by installing several call-transcription and meeting organization apps. That said, the number of popups that hit the instant a conference call starts, all offering to transcribe and monitor it, are still astounding and annoying.

"Our head count in Manhattan when I got to JPMorgan was 35,000 and now is 26,000. Our head count in Texas started at 11,000, now it's 33,000. That's what happens."
Jamie Dimon on why companies are leaving New York:
"Highest individual taxes, highest estate taxes, highest corporate taxes, anti-business sentiment."
"When I grew up as a kid in New York City, there were 120 of the Fortune 500 headquarters there. In the 1970s, 60 of the 120 left, including Exxon, GE, IBM, Union Carbide. They're all going to Texas."

We @Arnold_Ventures were frustrated that the US publishes data on the # of hogs slaughtered each day with a one day lag but national crime stats only annually, 9 months later. Since the FBI can't/won't publish more timely data, we funded the creation of realtimecrimeindex.com

Ex-wife here!👋 To clear the record, his CEO did not “seduce” me. I seduced him.
Every moment I had alone with Ethan, all he would talk about was his CEO. In the car. At dinner. While making love.
Eventually, I knew I had to meet this man for myself.
And when I finally did, it was a no-brainer! 👩❤️👨
Ethan still spends all his time talking about his former boss (my now husband), but now he has a big audience and I get his former boss all to myself. 🏆
I generally consider this a win for everybody, I just wish he’d stop bringing me into it as well. 🤷♀️
