My condolences, hope you find a better one soon.
I see your point I guess
So, what about people who are worth no more than minimun wage, but put in their 40 hours at that price? Adjust premiums? But then, that would be the State getting involved.
Really comes down to whether we feel an obligation to help the not so powerful folk, who don't do well in a Free Market scenario.
If health insurance is not provided in any form by government or employers I'd imagine ~50% would not purchase it and thus costs for everyone go up higher than what they are now. Unless you turn people away from emergency rooms and I don't see where that's going to be allowed. In my opinion, you'd have to make it like auto-insurance for this to be feasible. Everyone is required to have at least a bare-minimum, high-deductible plan.
The free market would work itself out. As it always does.
The "free market" has its problems when it comes to healthcare (if you believe all citizens should have access to it at a reasonable cost), but I do think we have a fricked up, artificially priced system right now.
As I've said several times on this board, when I was a kid health insurance wasn't an expected perk of employment. I was raised by a single mom from age nine up, and the only health insurance we had was for surgery and hospitalization. We paid out of pocket for our regular doctor visits and for prescription drugs. But both were affordable because our costs were not affected by bull shite insurance related administrative costs and other factors
through govt
Healthcare should also allow a cash business. I saw a doctor on Huckabee a few weeks ago talking about how much better it would be for business. That would truly allow the free market to work especially for specialty doctors. Just throwing in another option. I also think the benefits provided to certain occupations are killing this economy such as teachers not paying much for their own healthcare.
BTW the tax on medical supplies is bull shite......
5- There needs to be some skin in the game. Healthcare is not free, nor should it be free. It is an expensive commodity of limited supply. The mindset needs to be shifted from it being something that you should get for free, to something you need to be prepared for, the less helpless people we will generate as a society.
6- Free markets would provide cheaper catastrophic coverage plans (as well as all other plans) in addition to cheaper clinics for bumps, bruises and sniffles. That benefits everyone, especially the lower income folk.

The mindset needs to be shifted from it being something that you should get for free, to something you need to be prepared for, the less helpless people we will generate as a society.
my big question in a true free market healthcare system what happens to the really sick people who can't afford to have life saving procedures done when their insurance isn't willing to cover all the costs.
The emergency room will never turn away someone with a serious injury.
how can you guarantee this in a true free market system?
Because it is a fact. Just look at Canada if you need a serious surgery they head down here to get it done. They have extremely long lines and forces people to wait for an extremely long time just for a simple check up.
All of this sounds to me as way too complicated for the average person to understand.
And it requires way too much self-discipline and foresight, more than many Americans have
For that reason I think it would end badly with many people not getting the health care they need or Gvt just ending up paying for it later (in the ER)

Nadal Coming on Strong As 2013 French Open Approaches
If you want an example of sheer dominance on the tennis court, just take a look at Rafael Nadal. The Spanish sensation has mastered the iconic red clay and has won the French Open title in seven of the past eight years. An untimely knee injury marred his 2012 campaign, but thankfully, "The King of Clay" appears to be back on track after claiming his first title since last year's French Open by defeating David Nalbandian in the Brazil Open on Feb. 17.
The 2013 French Open is scheduled for May 26-June 9 at Roland Garros Stadium in Paris, France, and if Nadal can remain healthy, the 11-time Grand Slam champion has a great chance at continuing his reign. If there's anyone who can dethrone Nadal in Paris, it's the world's top-ranked player, Novak Djokovic. In January, the Serbian superstar became the first player to win three consecutive Australian Open titles, and he was the runner-up in last year's French Open, losing in four sets, 6–4, 6–3, 2–6, 7–5. If Djokovic wins this year, he'll have completed the elusive career Grand Slam feat.
On the Women's side, Maria Sharapova will enter in as the defending champion. The Russian was able to win her first French Open and complete a career Grand Slam by defeating Italy's Sara Errani, 6-3, 6-2. Both Nadal and Sharapova can expect the usual suspects like Roger Federer, Andy Murray, Serena Williams, and Victoria Azarenka as challengers for this year's title. The second Grand Slam of the season is always one of the finest, so book your seats today with a purchase of 2013 French Open tickets.

Contemporary slavery is subject of talk, April 14
Posted April 8, 2004; 04:41 p.m.
Kevin Bales, president of Free the Slaves Inc., will speak on "Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy" at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 14, in 16 Robertson Hall.
Bales, an expert on contemporary slavery, leads the Washington, D.C.-based Free the Slaves, a non-profit organization working to end slavery worldwide. He also is a professor of sociology at the University of Surrey Roehampton in London and consultant to the United Nations on slavery and trafficking.
Bales is the author of the book "Disposable People: New Slavery in the Global Economy" (University of California Press, 1999), which describes modern slavery as a global phenomenon and investigates how it exists in five countries. Bales claims that although slavery is illegal throughout the world, more than 27 million people are still kept in bondage.
The lecture is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs .

Chinese softshell turtle
|Chinese softshell turtle
|Scientific classification
|P. sinensis
|Binomial name
|Pelodiscus sinensis
(Wiegmann, 1835)[1]
See text
The Chinese softshell turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis) is a species of turtle that was first described by Arend Friedrich August Wiegmann in 1835 as Trionyx (Aspidonectes ) sinensis. The species is also referred to as the Asiatic soft-shelled turtle. There is a subspecies, P. s. japonicus, which is sometimes erroneously listed as Pelodiscus japonica.
The Chinese softshell turtle can reach a carapace length of 1 ft (30 cm). It has webbed feet for swimming. They are called "softshell" because their carapace lacks horny scutes (scales). The carapace is leathery and pliable, particularly at the sides. The central part of the carapace has a layer of solid bone beneath it, as in other turtles, but this is absent at the outer edges. The light and flexible shell of these turtles allows them to move more easily in open water, or in muddy lake bottoms.[3]
The carapace of these turtles is olive in color and may have dark blotches. The plastron is orange-red, and may also have large dark blotches. The limbs and head are olive dorsally with the forelimbs lighter and the hind-limbs orange-red ventrally. There are dark flecks on the head and dark lines that radiate from the eyes. The throat is mottled and there may be small, dark bars on the lips. A pair of dark blotches is found in front of the tail as well as a black band on the posterior side of each thigh.[4]
Distribution and habitat[edit]
The Chinese softshell turtle is found in China (including Taiwan), North Vietnam, Korea, Japan and Russia.[1][2][5]
It is difficult to determine its native range due to the long tradition of use as a food and "tonic"[6] and subsequent spread by migrating people.[4] The Chinese soft-shelled turtle has been introduced to Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Philippines, Timor, Batan Islands, Guam, and some of the Hawaiian Islands,[7]
Chinese softshell turtles live in fresh and brackish water.[8][9] In China these turtles are found in rivers, lakes, ponds, canals and creeks with slow currents, and in Hawaii they can be found in marshes and drainage ditches.[4]
Ecology and behavior[edit]
These turtles are predominantly carnivorous and the remains of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, insects, and seeds of marsh plants have been found in their stomachs.[4] They forage at night.
With their long snout and tubelike nostrils, these turtles can "snorkel" in shallow water.[10] When resting, they lie at the bottom, buried in sand or mud, lifting their head to breathe or snatch at prey. Their basking habit is not well developed.[4]
Chinese softshell turtles often submerge their heads in water.[10] This is because they carry a gene which produces a protein that allows them to secrete urea from their mouths. This adaptation helps them survive in brackish water by making it possible for them to excrete urea without drinking too much salty water. Rather than eliminating urea by urinating through their cloaca as most turtles do, which involves significant water loss, they simply rinse their mouths in the water.[9][11]
When provoked, certain populations of these turtles are capable of excreting a foul smelling fluid from pores on the anterior edge of their shells.[12]
Life cycle[edit]
These turtles reach sexual maturity sometime between 4 and 6 years of age. They mate at the surface or under water. A male will hold the female's carapace with its forelimbs and may bite at her head, neck, and limbs. Females may retain sperm for almost a year after copulation.[4]
The females lay 8–30 eggs in a clutch and may lay from 2 to 5 clutches each year. The eggs are laid in a nest that is about 3–4 in (76–102 mm) across at the entrance. Eggs are spherical and average about 20 mm (0.79 in) in diameter. After an incubation period of about 60 days, which may be longer or shorter depending upon temperature, the eggs hatch. Average hatchling carapace length is about 1 in (25 mm) and width is also about 1 in (25 mm).[4] Sex of the hatchlings is not determined by incubation temperature.[12]
Wild populations are listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List.[2]
Relations with humans[edit]
The Chinese softshell turtle is the most commonly raised species in China's turtle farms.[8][13] According to the data obtained from 684 Chinese turtle farms, they sold over 91 million turtles of this species every year; considering that these farms represented less than half of the 1,499 registered turtle farms in China, the nationwide total could be over twice as high.[14] These turtles are considered a delicacy in many parts of Asia.[10] Turtle soup is made from this species. In Japan, they may be stewed with hōtō noodles and served as a winter delicacy. Many Koreans, even today, generally have a taboo against eating turtles which has origins in native Korean Shamanism.
These turtles can be injured if they are dropped or hit, and are susceptible to shell fungus. Within Europe, the turtle is a popular pet, particularly in countries such as Italy and the Czech Republic. Captives of this species will eat canned and fresh fish, canned dog food, raw beef, mice, frogs, and chicken.[4]

I didn't purchase a puppy from them, But I would not hesitate to in the future.
They seem like very nice folks
I imported a Ramblinmaxx bred labrador, Yank.
Yank was a high desire, good marking dog, who also loved drills.
Yank has a few youngsters in South East Asia, used in breeding programs and as drug/bomb detection dogs.
Yank presence in Australia has resulted in two other Australians importing (not an easy task!) from America.
Currently have 8 day old, Yank grand puppies!

planting a tank with barbs
I have just recently started a 55 gallon tank and its been cycling for a while. I would like to add some rosy barbs, but I would like to know what types of plants they will leave alone. I would like to have a planted tank, and for it to survive!! Are there any dwarf grasses that would spread that they will not eat? I need some back ground plants too. Any suggestions?
I'm not a plant guy and I'm sure talldutchie or another plant individual will help you on your question but when you say cycling I'm assuming you are using pure ammonia and not just letting the filter run. A lot of people believe that their tanks are cycling by setting it up, turning on the filter and wait a few days to a few weeks.
Your Rosy Barbs should leave most plants alone. There are to many plant eaters in that family.Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.
Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit. -Vince Lombardi

Sorry, I wasn't very specific. I've been cycling with fish. An opaline gourami, and a couple of Cory cats with two black phantom tetra. One of the cory cats just recently passed, but showed no inflamed gills or ammonia sickness signs, I tested ammonia, it was below .25 ppm so I did a 20% water change. All other fish are very active, and eating normally, I'm going to go out and get my Cory a couple of buddies tonight.
I would actually wait until the tank is done cycling before adding anything else. When you add the barbs, you should add several at once, too, but corys and all bottom feeders are the last fish that should go in a tank and only in a tank cycled. The tetra's might be a target for the barbs, as well. A barb tank is neat but best to stick to an all barb tank like rosies, greens and tigers or all of one kind. But overstock them.

Well I seeded the filter so it was kind of an instant cycle, I was thinking this weekend I would take out the tetra and add the rosy barbs ( 5 )

Shawn Salevsky, drama teacher, accused of sexually abusing student inside Nazareth Middle School
NAZARETH, Pa. - A Nazareth Middle School teacher is behind bars, accused of sexually assaulting a student at the school.
Shawn Salvesky is facing numerous charges, including sexual assault and corruption of minors.
"Honestly, I wasn't all that surprised to hear about it," said a woman whose daughter was one of Salvesky's students. "My daughter has made mention of him in the past, that he was always kind of odd and he really liked to hang around the kids, like a lot."
The male victim told a friend about the inappropriate contact. The friend then told school administration, according to the affidavit of probable cause.
The victim said the assaults took place from January 2011 to March 15, 2013, according to court documents.
Parents said the investigation of the allegations started two weeks ago.
"My children heard it going around," said one parent. "My daughter is at the middle school and he just wasn't there anymore."
All of the meetings between Salevsky and the student took place at school in the theater/drama room, according to court documents.
Salevsky, who is from Macungie, Lehigh Co., is facing a number of charges, including involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, sexual assault and corruption of minors. He is now behind bars on $75,000 bail.
"I think he deserves to be there. Nobody that has inappropriate contact with a child belongs in a school," said one parent.

Walmart fishers had cw thire luminara wave tonight! Only one case though it comes with Rex repack.
Walmart fishers had cw thire luminara wave tonight! Only one case though it comes with Rex repack.
Found the TPM and latest CW wave at WM. I picked up Luminara, Argyus, Thire, Rum Sleg, Holo Sidious, and Clegg Holdfast. Passed on the others. Neat looking BAD, but I'm not buying the other crap to build it.
Just received my qui gonn eopie today! looks pretty sweet.
I found the ROTJ wave and new comic packs at Kmart this afternoon. Picked up Slave Leia, Ewoks, Nien Nunb, Major Panno, Giran, Malakili, and Nikto Gunner. Of the comic packs I got Yuuzhan Vong & Kyle Katarn and Lumiya & Luke. Passed on Darth Krayt & Sigel Dare.
TRU Castleton still has yet to put any Build-A-Droid figures out in the new card packaging that debuted in July. I saw 3 TIE Interceptors there yesterday and when I went back today, all 3 were gone.
I saw the new CW Y-Wing at 2 different Target Stores. This looks like a really cool ship. Not happy about the price tag, though.
As soon as I find the ROTJ wave & comic packs at Walmart I'll be returning the ones I got at Kmart. I'm not paying $9 for figures and $15 for comic packs.
The TRU here still has a ton of blue carded figures, which they got in for their last 3 for 2 sale. Everyone already has them so naturally they didn't sell. I did see the TIE Interceptor at my TRU today as well.
I'm tempted to get the Hasbro Clone Wars vehicles but the cost is too high. I don't mind shelling out for the LEGO versions though.
