I hope you don’t think this is just a recent thing…

That guy is such a piece of shit.

We cannot resurrect extinct species. These would be hybrid species.

They have not actually. They have gone up in a few places but are roughly the same overall.

And yet theft rates are the same as they have pretty much always been.

When done properly, it is just water. Hyland made some homeopathic teething tablets about a decade ago that used too much belladonna which killed several kids and paralyzed a few more because they did not dilute it to nothing.

They have a ping pong table or back if I remember correctly. No comets though. The pizza was okay.

I thought this might be BS because it is definitely formatted to cause outrage. But there is currently a listing on Estately updated yesterday for the higher price but older references to it shows the lower price. It looks like they pulled all the ads they could though.

There are 330 million Americans in the US and some of them definitely have the combination of morals that Luigi does.

Definitely not low wage. There are requirements that they have to be paid market rates. Despite that, I recall Banerjee and Duflo finding a depression of upper middle income wages from things like the H1B program.

It’s such batshit logic too. The 2020 presidential election, which happened with Trump as president, saw Biden become president through cheating but the 2024 election, which happened under Biden who apparently cheated previously, was a-okay and saw Trump win? Are Republicans just really bad at election security and Democrats just super lazy at cheating when they get into power?

You are batshit if you think that was not happening before the ACA.

Please explain the connection since this has been a constant for decades.

Ouch. I give my nanny more time off than that. You may love your job and company but just remember that they do not care about you or your coworkers.

Their revenue is about half of Ford’s.

I’m not sure who this doctor is

This doctor is someone who knows a hell of a lot more about the situation than you do or the friends that I might ask that are in healthcare. Maybe, just maybe, he knows some information where it makes sense to continue treatment. You seem to be under the assumption that he did not share that information with the insurance.

Stephen Helmsley:

He was managing partner and chief financial officer at Arthur Andersen.

Super shocking that he was doing insider trading at UHC. They hired a known crook and paid him tens of millions a year.

A pipe gun is a functional firearm. They are literally made from junk.

The answer to the tagline is: no. The CEO, Andrew Witty, of UHC Group (owner of UHC) wrote an article saying the healthcare system is broken and needs to be fixed. It was all PR garbage. No identification of WHAT people are frustrated with or how they will work to fix it. He also said that no employee should have to live in fear but the examples he gave of employees were RNs and call center employees. Last I checked, people were not angry enough at those groups to kill them in the street.

It absolutely was. Another instance of how creepy it was is Brooke Shields’ role in Pretty Baby where she played a preteen prostitute. She was only 12 and did a nude scene. One review I recall reading described her as pure sexual energy or something to that extent.
