Remember:
Data show the US isn't actually more litigious than any other country. Instead, we're underregulated relative to other countries, because corporations keep telling lawmakers that courts and lawsuits will do the job that regulations are supposed to do.

I bang on about this a lot: I think the combination of a global pandemic, underregulated internet/SM, collapse/corruption of trustworthy media, plus now unregulated genAI, is a wildly toxic environment for radicalisation & mental health. We see the results of that in our politics & lives every day

Wall Street is full of capital and Expected Value-maximizing.
But it’s also regulated, and well-established.
Poker, sports betting, and Silicon Valley VC culture are underregulated.
They all have a flair for the dramatic, the potential for big scores, and a general frontier/gold rush vibe.

When are we going to have a reckoning about the harm being caused by underregulated supplements?
my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements
we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)
