A Prime Ministerial Scheme To Stop Poverty Due to Health Crises Is Helping Poorest Indians The Least

Launched in 2018, the Prime Minister’s health insurance programme was meant to prevent ‘catastrophic’ health expenditure that pushed 60 million Indians into poverty each year. In September 2022, the government claimed it had ‘saved crores of families’ from such expenditure, but there are no data to support this claim, and studies indicate India’s most marginalised people are not benefitting, while insurance companies are.

Does the “free prescription medicine for all” work hard enough as the universal goodie in an election year?

I don’t think so. Sure its helpful but its not enough. #budget2023

What's the smartest transport investment today? @cyclingactionnz #Budget2023

Random car outside of #HarborLab with out of state (in state is #NY) plates has taken to speeding in school zones. Fuck all those who say there is no money available. Car owners have lots of money. This car doesn't owe anything but many do. Just check out those out of state plates.

CBC Ontario Today asking "What do you do when you can't afford groceries? A closer look at the federal budget's new "Grocery" Rebate."

Fair enough, but for many Canadians lack of food security is hardly a new problem! It was intractable long before inflation. And the rebate is hardly going to solve it, is it?

Maybe it's just me, but this seems to be a bizarre headline. I guess it's trying for drama by juxtaposing throwing "new spending" with an "inflation-weary" population as something awful, as though the Finance Minister was just piling straw on some poor camel's back. Sort of a reverse Exodus 5:7? "Ye shall no more give the people straw to make brick, as heretofore: let them go and gather straw for themselves."

#Budget2023 is out. Just one reference to copyright this year with a commitment to establishing a right of repair. No repeat of last year’s ill-advised reference that some thought might lead to re-opening the debate on fair dealing.

Ahead of #Budget2023, I’m continuing the pre-budget tradition of selecting a new pair of shoes. I chose from a Canadian retailer Simons — and I look forward to wearing them tomorrow.

"The threat posed by rising destitution is now so serious that hard-pressed, under-resourced charities will have to give up on helping the hungry so they can focus on the starving, opt out of helping the inadequately housed so they can help the homeless and turn their attention from supporting the down-at-heel to rescuing the down and out"

I missed this justifiably angry column yesterday by Gordon Brown.
