Here's the link: http://www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cesbd.htm. I just read it briefly but it here's the gist. Because new companies can't be surveyed in a timely manner, the model the govt uses excludes business deaths to compensate. there is another 'part' that adjusts the birth/death rate...

Tsing what exactly is the birth/death adjustment? I honestly have no idea.

lol. To be fair that was mostly the last hour, and don't forget the $.40 spike with like 6 min to go.

true

I'm thinking that he will 'self enforce' his end of the bet and not post until his time's up. Either way we know he straight up honors his word. I suspect that is more than most on here can say, and I know it is more than most can say in general. Like him or not, you have to respect that.

The time to be rid of the UN is long overdue. It is a complete failure. I'm not sure which body of govt has the authority to give them the boot but it needs to be done. The member nations should be told to pay off their debts to NYC and start packing. If they don't pay we should confiscate...

yeah lol, most will go out of bus, but we will all suffer. Time to pick a side Wall St, you are NOT being smart by hedging.

You are right.. i corrected myself in a later post. not for this reason but everyone could use hc ins, but we shouldn't be forced to buy it.

I definitely agree with you that Bo is a sham and that the dem parties just complete lack of effectiveness when in total control will have to be evident to everyone looking back.. but he has done lasting damage. There are now more people sucking off the govt titty than maybe ever before. This...

Just fucking WOW! A SC Justice.. we are falling apart. She can learn all she wants from foreigners, her damn job is defending the US CONSTITUTION. This is ridiculous, especially the quote that she looks to foreign state policy when grappling with big decisions, and it holds weight. Are you...

I disagree dude, they could have made it illegal for hc insurance providers to avoid coverage of people with preexisting conditions, their premiums would be higher, but they could still get coverage, and choices between providers. Or they could have tried to provide a legal framework for some...

You're going the wrong way with this.. when I get older and gain weight, I should pay more. the deliberately unhealthy are FREE to live however they want too.. their insurance should cost more, as should people who are NOT deliberately unhealthy. But as long as they pay their premiums, they...

We are at the stage of decline, where the thinking is "the Constitution is nice and all, but we can do better". That is what is most infuriating, the arrogance that our leadership in govt is somehow more advanced or qualified than the founders to change the framework itself, especially when...

No i'm not independently wealthy, and shouldn't have said don't need, as in at all. But 20 somethings with no real health issues don't really need full health coverage. A catastrophic type plan (or low prem-high deductible) where if you get smashed by a car, for example, and require expensive...

So you meant it will be easier for young people to pay for the cost of obamacare? lol we are going to bear the heaviest financial burden.. our low prems are going to be replaced with that of older, unhealthy people, and even though we don't really need insurance, right.. it is the LAW. btw...

Why?

Seriously dude.. you too? He's a racist for calling it the way it is?

lol no offense Mav, but from the opening sentence of this thread till Baron's post at the top of this page.. there is basically nothing but insults. I figured no one else was going to post today and was just gong to keep this bumped for tmrw. So yeah i'm guilty of instigating, but you did do a...

haha P&R is on the brink of all out FLAME WAR!! Most entertaining thread in months.. and it can only get better! :p

I wonder if he also knows that obamacare is going to cost existing hc policy holders more $$$. I am certain that you understand that by now, but it isn't stopping you from saying otherwise.. why is that?
