Why is it that everything in Government is Opposite World? The Feds pay farmers not to grow food. (Farm Subsidies) They used to pay airlines to ignore market demand, fly routes chosen by politicians, and fly nearly empty airplanes. (Pre-Deregulation) Now they are paying hospitals and doctors to not treat patients. How very helpful! I'm certain there are other examples. We have been very bad if we have gotten the government we deserve.

Man oh Manischewitz this "follow the money" thing is a revelation. Root of all evil? Almost certainly!

The Tennessee citizens discovering their school boards' Fed disincentive money to torture students with masks, school closures and distance learning was a revelation.

I am so glad you picked up the health side of this evil endeavor!!

What a great gig it must be for the med co administrations to "find" such easy funding!!

Bet 60Minutes won't spend 60 seconds on this one.

And the proceeds of this bounty? Don't expect the IRS or any other govt branch to go after whatever nefarious use and tax consequences of this "earned" free money.

And Congress? The power of the pus! A very bad joke!!

The headline for one of "Today's Must-Reads - 3 June 2024" in "The Naked Emperor’s Newsletter" paid version (which I do not subscribe to) in the "Covid" related stories section is this headline

"NIH Scientists Made $710M in Hidden Royalties;"

I feel like I'm watching a sequel to "The Dark Knight", but instead of the Joker just doing his general mayhem for the chaos and anarchy of it, these guys did it for the greed of it because they could and it was easy and they figured they would never be held accountable.

Thank you for this info, Dr

It really is like an abysmal scandal, but all funded by our dear gubmint.

My only solace at this point is that GOD knows & will ultimately justly judge.
