How long does it take you to die?

You’re just seeing a partner from another slice of the multiverse.

This makes me think I need an addition to my will…

to make sure my kid can sell my remains for profit!

I can’t afford $150 for my own health insurance

Women are so cute and adorable to see

I’m noticing a pattern right away. Almost as if this has no bearing on the user

Had to learn this the hard way myself.

Now I literally ask when it isn’t obvious. Do you want support or solutions? It’s rarely the latter but at least we’re both on the same page.

I’m not sure those two things are mutually exclusive

There’s a Wikipedia link and a hundred others if you bother to search even a little.

Besides, doesn’t matter if it’s real. It’s a story. It’s entertainment. And it’s just as real as any other opinion here.

I’m in a similar situation. Have tried to get where you’re at, but have been quoted in the $30,000 price range. There is no insurance that covers any of that cost, and they all want payment up front.

Any suggestions?

Nothing about it was quick.

Had to drive nearly an hour over to the next town. Then wait in a lobby for the same amount of time. Then drive to a pharmacy to pick up the pills. Half of my day when I knew I just needed a basic antibiotic.

Ignoring the snark in your comment…

I assume you take issue with UBI?

Would you feel different if we ‘required service’ for UBI? For example, some countries have mandatory military service. If we nationalize these giant corporations, we could make working there a way to qualify for UBI.

Do you think UBI is just taking money from the average person and giving it to lazy people who do nothing? Or do you enjoy the separation of the rich while the rest of us struggle for scraps? Do you understand that the UBI would apply to you as well?

Or am I missing deeper thoughts given to your comment?

How would there be thousands? There aren’t thousands of nations, and everyone would still use Google.

If you break it up, that’s how you get thousands of shitty versions.

Maybe some countries might disable Google if it was owned by the US, but I have a feeling those countries already have their own issues with Google as it stands now.

I just think if the monopolistic corporations are too big and too essential to take down, then nationalization is a solution with many more positive traits than negative.

This last winter I was unemployed and I got sick enough to need antibiotics.

I couldn’t prove that I didn’t have a job, so the ‘sliding scale clinic’ charged me $586 to talk to someone (not a doctor). I knew what I needed. I was forced to take an unnecessary STD test ($180) and to promise I would go in for additional testing and scanning (undisclosed price, to be determined AFTER).

The meds were around $40 for a week of pills (15 pills).

I knew my issue, and just needed a prescription for the antibiotics.

I have a job now. They want about $200 a month for the basic coverage. I have on average, $20-$30 at the end of the pay period. So I could get insurance, but it means skipping more meals (I already skip several a week to save money).

So I just hope nothing ever goes wrong because if it does, I’ll need to be close to death before I get help that will take me years to pay for.

Don’t ‘break it up’, nationalize it, and do the same with all these other giant corporations.

Profits could support UBI instead of encouraging billionaires.

I think what they may be trying to say is that the majority of Trump supporters are not the rabid followers. This is why they are so dangerous. The majority of his support is not the crazy people you see on TV. They are your friends, family and coworkers, your neighbors, people you know.

Trump is selling a solution to the political corruption that nearly EVERYONE is sick of. This is what makes him popular. The people voting for him will tolerate non-direct racism but they aren’t choosing that side because of it. What you hear about from the media is the crazy people that make good stories.

And yes, Trump brings along a con-crew with their own agenda who are just as corrupt as those that Trump complains about. They’ve been scheming long before Trump, he’s just the current tool.

I once said that children who steal can be rehabilitated or taught to be productive members of society.

Downvoted to oblivion while everyone else celebrated the death of 3 kids because “all thieves deserve to die”.

I’d play the shit outta that

Working on an 86 RV and hating posi drive. I swear they were designed to strip.

Also no mention of Spider drive that everyone insists is a torx

In my experience, people tend to not want things that don’t benefit them directly.

If they don’t use the bike lanes they don’t want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.
