Ever see people and decide they are NCGs but just don't know it yet?

No fucks to give. Of course every1 let's her promptly know that she is misguided ..and has ended up on the wrong team....to which she retorts to by barking at the nearest girl in ear shot. Soooo she remains on the blue squad. Point 1 for our ncg in training. Later on I glance over at this little gremlin an she has her winter hat pulled all the way over her face an just her tongue sticks out as she spins around like a helicopter during the jumping Jacks warm up session. Well at this point I'm impressed. Subscribed. So I watch her more....actually at this point she was all that I cared to even see.....she called the cheers out of count....an when I say she called the cheers.....I mean she just yelled out sounds and growled interesting things that caught most of the crowd off guard. At one point they do this thing where each cheerleader introduces themselves an does a little cheer jump....an they go from girl to girl......so they're moving along.....TAMMY TEEHEE....BRANDY HEEEHHEE....MONICA HOORAY......then....we arrive at our beautiful ncg......laying on the ground sprawled out......no response....legit unsure if she suffocated herself w the winter hat or if she was just having a little nap. This is the best practice they've ever had I thought.....see this girl was from the other class that starts earlier ...... but in true ncg fashion she apparently just showed up wenever the fuck she wanted an joined the group. Honestly idk if she even had parents. I think wen the practice was over she just kindve floated away in a magic little retard bubble to retire for the afternoon and hopefully grace us with her genius some day soon once more. Bless that child. An ncg was she.

Several parts of this leaned me

According to the World Health Organization, healthcare costs need to be adjusted to match their worth with regards to longevity. Like, there's this SUPER bomb Hep C drug that has a 95% cure rate-- CURE rate. That's insane. It's an 84 day regimen, but costs $1000 a pill. It's an 84 day regimen, and 70,000 people used it in 2014

That's like 5.5 BILLION dollars of return

The thing is that it's incredibly hard to get a medicine pushed through the FDA. For instance, for colon cancer, there had been only one drug available from 1959-1995(ish). In that time, 70 colon cancer drugs were submitted for FDA approval and rejected

The ridiculous cost of drugs reflects the massive amount of research that pharma companies need to keep hitting bullseyes once every couple years. Whatever they can charge, they will charge, and it's the most effective way for them


But basically there will be drugs that virtually no one can afford that would cure so many of our problems.


The point is this- the WHO suggests normalizing the cost of medicines towards the value of extending a human life by one year. They currently recommend pricing drugs so that a drug that extends your life by one, good year should sell for 1-3x that country's GDP/ capita

So the cost of extending your life by one year is roughly $50K-150K
