Either one could take you away, if you could get your hands on a bathyscaphe.

The overhead for the insurance co.'s (advertising, executive salaries, corporate jets)? Through the roof. And it's an industry of middlemen. No offense to (hard-working!) ins. co. employees, but the system sux.

He was going in for a very relaxed landing, until that 4x4 upright broke his fall. With his head. Lost the beer, too! (Or was that green/yellow Gatorade??)

Is the "baby shark" in a minor key because a baby is (oh no!) a... minor (Dear God!!!)?? Say it ain't so, I'll believe you! 100%!!!

Felonious assault. "Feelings"?? The canned clams of "mellow" music??? You monster. (And, what's more, Herb's version is necessarily the instrumental variety... The gallows awaits!)

What irks the shit out of me is that the Dems and Biden haven't understood this, and taken steps to counter it. Almost like they're being paid to lose.

How is it a lie? It went from 6 trillion, to 3.75 trillion, to 1.5 trillion. And the majority of the stuff, the stuff that Biden was elected to do, the stuff he swore he was gonna do, is gone. ESPECIALLY the taxes he was gonna finally make the rich and the corporations pay?

If I promise you I'm gonna pay you $100 dollars, and then tell you I'm gonna pay you $30 dollars, and then later I tell you I'm gonna pay you $10 dollars, A) How have I fulfilled my promise, and B) How are you going to build on that $1.25?

No, it's not a lie. The LIE was that Biden and the Dems were FINALLY were going to face down the GOP and the rich bastards who have been systematically looting and poisoning the entire fucking world, and stand up and serve the little guy. Instead, they can't even get their own house in order.

But be my guest and continue believing the Pollyanna bullshit. I'm more pragmatic than that. Oh, and good luck with believing that the Dems have an ice cubes chance in hell of winning in 22 and 24.

I respect you Sara, but I'm gonna need a little more factual information than "I'd like to believe them." Especially when all information is to the contrary.

Even us "third worlders" do better... I'm happy with my Mexican IMSS plan. We self-pay as foreign self-employed people. Both over 60, it works out to about 50US a month for full coverage including preventive care.

It is not a farce if other people's lives matter. I agree with you so that it is not a farce.
