    U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

    O.K.- I'm wrong. Been there before; will be there again. Kudos for you and your friend for ignoring your own best interests. However, the majority of us, (agreed, MOST of us DON'T contract chronic disease's), agreed to participate in programs that protect those who might. It's kinda like...

    U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

    In 2007, 62%+ of all personal bankruptcies were due to medical bills. Of that 6 out of 10, 4 HAD health insurance when they got sick. NOBODY in Europe, Canada or Japan files for bankruptcy due to medical bills; NOBODY. - A person is employed, gets a chronic illness, loses their job, loses...

    U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

    Damn dude; you're living in the lap of luxury, free of pretty much every threat that has traditionally confronted man, and will probably live to 75 at least. If an American loses three hours of electric service or five minutes of cell phone connection they feel its a crisis. In short, in...

    U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

    I wish you had a link to the text of that video. If I watch all 57 minutes I certainly exceed my fair use threshold limits. I'm certainly not one to ignore the problems that ANY health care system will run into. Does government have waste, fraud and entrenched bureucrats; absolutely. Just...

    Only Ben Nelson Stands Between Us and Obamacare.. Dick Morris

    Yeah !!! That damn Obama. Who the hell does he think he is screwing up our children's future by giving them and their parents medical care !?!?! Just let them fools run up medical bills and file bankruptcy like old fashion Americans do. I bet that Obama wakes up every morning and thinks...

    U.S. Healthcare in Crisis.

    It falls under the phrase: "promote the general welfare". The interstate system, space program, public education, Social Security, WIC and other food programs aren't specifically mentioned in the Constitution either. The health care reform bill is NOT a Constitutional admendment; it is a...

    Free From Pretense or Deceit

    Very good website Lucrum. I'm a strong (as in donor) to MoveOn and, while I don't agree with everything they say I do agree with a lot. Reading the FreedomWorks site, I understand more clearly where you are coming from and even agree with parts of it. One thing for sure: running a major...

    Sold Naked 20 Large SP500 1130 Call Index Options

    I think a whole lot of people would be very happy with a 3% return in 4 days. Even if held for one week, $11,000 per week would be an annual return of 174%...without compounding.

    God and Science

    I'm not sore at anybody/anything. I don't believe that myth or any other. There is no plan and there is no planner. There's just the laws of nature which explains perfectly the mass extinctions and everything else. Even if we haven't yet discovered all of those laws.

    God and Science

    Whether there is a Creator or not, none can call He/She/It "Benevolent". Five mass extinctions in our planets history so far and the 'species created in He/She/It's own image' in the midst of creating the sixth. In addition to this, all of the 'chosen species' members except approxiamately...

    God and Science

    O.K.- you go with less than 1% of the Nobel winners and will follow the other 99%. It would follow the same logic as your religious beliefs: follow one and ignore the dozen or more other hypothsies.

    The 10,000 hour rule.

    Very interesting. I have that book; been sitting on my bookshelf for a year or more. Guess I'd better stay off Elite Trader and read it. It's kind of comforting to see him say '10,000 hours of practice': I've logged about 6,000 of screen time and feel like I'm ALMOST getting it. I wonder...

    Just put me on 'Ignore'. You are nothing but worthless racist dirtbag. You have absolutely nothing to offer the world and represent the very worst of evolutions tribal instincts.

    2010 and 2012 prediction

    Sounds like we got 'em exactly where we want him, three years out from the next election. To wit: The TARP program, predicted to fail by many, has stopped the Recession. Bank of America has just paid back 45 billion with interest and other banks have already or are getting ready to do the...

    2010 and 2012 prediction

    Speaking on a personal level; several of my friends and myself are very strong supporters of Pres. Obama. At the same time, we are very UNHAPPY with his decisions on Iraq, Afganistan, and the constant compromising on the health bill. In spite of that, we will all vote for him again in 2012...
