I didn't know this was news. My mother, a US resident who's lived in the US for ~30 years, in a border town, goes across every time she needs any sort of medical care.

The Red Cross only takes cash, but it's so much cheaper (actually affordable).

Huh, who woulda thought paying cash would be cheaper than filing a bunch of forms with an insurance company, giveing them a hefty discount, then waiting a few months to get paid.

Agreed. Many years ago I knew people who worked in an IVF office in Northern California. There was some drug they needed / used / prescribed / ??? that was crazy expensive. One of the nurses would drive down to Tijuana once a month to stock up. I thought this was just common practice.

Suggesting that "every product, restaurant, and company [having] the exact same label set in the same type with the same colours" is a "Marxist dream" is totally not how that works, though.

I've used Howler on a few sites to make media players for small-time artists' sites. It's pretty neat.
