Personally I appreciate that you and other SPs participate in the forum, otherwise it just feels like a big circle jerk with a bunch of other guys. It definitely makes things more interesting.

Innocent... Which of the ones that were killed were innocent? Renee Good and Ruben Martinez used their vehicle as a weapon and tried to run over an agent. Alex Pretti had a gun on him. He dropped it after he got shot. If it were holstered, it wouldn't have fallen so he had it in his hand or...

At this point, I would welcome a civil war. Not out of chaos, but out of principle. When one side believes it is acceptable to seize power by bribing MPs, crossing the floor, and outright betraying the people who elected them, it has already abandoned any claim to democratic legitimacy. You...

Couldn't predict what would happen 25 years in the future. Up until perimenopause, I was the one who couldn't keep up. 8-12 times a week was normal. Even though I am in the situation I am in now, I would still get married if I could go back in time. The benefits far outweigh the the cons.

Picked other. Been going to indy masseuses for some time. Married and not lonely, but my wife doesn't want any physical intimacy since the start of perimenopause. Like not even cuddles or hugs. Been 6.5 years. At this point I just settle for physical touch, skin to skin contact, a hug or some...

I use Tivimate as my app and the IPTV sub costs me $100 CAD per year. The sub I had last time got shut down, but this one seems to be ok and buffers much less than the other. I sometimes need to disconnect and reconnect to VPN, but not too often.

No, but me and the wife each pay more than that every year. For what? Wait times at the emergency long enough to kill you and offers for MAID because the system can't keep up with the demand. I swear, I'm convinced people defend this broken system just out of stubbornness and blind pride...

Both. When I had heart issues, service was quick, but they ignored everything I told them about why I had issues. They only relied on their tests which found nothing since it was emotional and not physical. They wasted months and tried to medicate me for nothing. When it comes to other issues...

Why pay thousands in taxes then? Get rid of the public system altogether. We should all be revolting in the streets after paying THOUSANDS in taxes, of which a large portion goes to healthcare, and then need to pay for private healthcare because the public one is shit. The $99 thing might be...

The feeling of being alive. When I've gone to France, Italy, Greece, Florida, Mexico, and a few other countries, life felt nice. It wasn't a vacation thing because I've been to other countries or cities and you don't always have that feeling of being alive. Everything is relaxed. No stress, no...

Yeah the private option is always available. I'm lucky enough that I could afford it and my health insurance through work paid 80% of the CT scan I needed not too long ago. I managed to get a scan at a private clinic within a few days. Soon after, I got an MRI in the public system fairly...

I get it from this point of view. This way of looking at the map puts Greenland in a much more prominent, strategic spot. A lot of times people ask for something crazy so negotiations can start at that spot and end where they actually want to be.

1200 sounds great to be honest. Even if I need to drop 2500 USD every month for family health insurance, I am better off in the FL with a tax rate of under 20%. I save a lot even with the exchange rate. Fuel is also 30% less per liter and I don't need to worry about winter tires, snow...

That's why I asked if he is comparing to Canada. His implication was Canada and I wanted to point out that our system is broken and beyond a pile of crap.

2nd time you're saying US healthcare sucks. Are you comparing with Canada or countries that actually provide good service?

You mean Canada's. Wait times are so long that people die waiting or opt for MAID instead of treatment. Honestly, I'd rather pay for health insurance in the US and be seen by a doctor than pay 80-85k in taxes, wait 13 hours in the emergency waiting room, or months for a CT or MRI.

Best guess, that's nearly $3.3 trillion counting citizens only. Not enough. A few mods and it would be perfect. Double the amount for employed citizens. Double it for people with common sense. Multipliers should stack. ICE operations need to very quickly expand into the new state.

No, but hitting someone with your car could very well get you shot and in her case it did. She made poor decisions all day. Perfect example of FAFO.

Canada doesn't need more leftists.

I would just send them back to where they came from unless they committed a violent crime or trafficked anything. In those cases, CECOT or similar should be an option.
