That is what I was getting at right there! How would universal health care have saved that girls life? They were not insured, but they still got treatment. Those ...

Healthcare is a service that will be more accessible and affordable under public control, the way it works on all countries that have a better healthcare system than ours. Health insurance as it stands in our country today is borderline criminal extortion. Are you saying rich people with poor health deserve to live, while poor people (although, ...

I never said that it would save her life. But it's disgusting that the parents have to sit on $1M of debt, and the mother had to give up her job years ago. They've spent the last 4 years in the hospital, and have received an incredible amount of support from several friends, including us. The pile of debt is the biggest kick in the pants when ...

OK.. Before everybody gets carried away... Allow me to share with you some of the current CCOM prices against what they were in June 2008. How do I know what they were in June 2008? Spreadsheet, baby! Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real (Toro, Robusto, Churchill): 2008 - $6.08, $5.50, $5.50 - don't ask me why the Churchill is the same price as the ...

Conversely, this winter, when it was warm enough to smoke outside, I noticed the cigars would burn much faster. In both cases, the quality of the burn was rather poor.
