Shipon posted:if there were any actual attempt to assert power in this country against the government they would just loving carpetbomb the cities in which riots took place. they wouldn't give a second thought to it, half the chuds are practically salivating at the idea that the troops would bomb san francisco anyway This is some weird leftist defeatism meme that keeps getting brought up but like... loving lol if you really think this would happen. As if life is just a video game and all those vehicles, bombs, and crews are robots with 0 feelings at all and which have an unlimited supply of ammo back at the base. Or like if they did that the country wouldn't instantly dissolve into civil war. Like bro the US gov't can't even successfully occupy Afghanistan what makes you think they can occupy like, the entire West Coast? Moridin920 has issued a correction as of 21:03 on May 15, 2019 |

Moridin920 posted:It owns that you have dental and vision covered by your health insurance. New Zealand is actually a great study in why exceptions for dental are hosed. Dentistry is not covered by the public health system (and GP visits only partially so) because when the PM was setting it up back in 1938 he rather ironically was dying of cancer and literally ran out of time to get the full system in place before he died. As a result dentistry in NZ is this lovely unregulated wasteland full of assholes and scammers. Dentists low-key sit under chiropractors and naturopaths in terms of trusted health practitioners. And unsurprisingly NZ has terrible dental hygiene and a range of extra/associated (and entirely avoidable) costs for the public health system as a result. Also as a result the health insurance options that include dental (or cover for GP visits) are the $200-300/month platinum packages, because it isn't a service that people can get elsewhere anyway. The public/funded services provide the base for private health insurance to leech off, is the short version of this story.

Any kind of civil war 2.0 seems supremely unlikely imo. Either we work out our differences*, some number of chunks peacefully secede, or we all go down the toilet together. *We won't

Moridin920 posted:It owns that you have dental and vision covered by your health insurance. Our state government's former speaker of the house made eye prescriptions expire very quickly because he was a former optometrist and wanted to drum up more business for his pals. He also was behind closing the big state mental hospital so the land could be sold to developers (a deal which fell through so it just got closed for literally no reason) He got kicked out after a scandal where he took a paper bag of cash from a guy in a men's room in exchange for favorable legislation on chiropractors. Now you might ask, "after that, surely people would vote for the democrats". Problem is, those were the democrats.

Not surprised a chiropractor would get caught doing some stupid cartoon poo poo like this. Chiropractors are easily the stupidest mother fuckers you will ever meet in your life. I bet the bag had a big dollar sign on it too.

Everyone always links me this poo poo. Yeah?? And? Similar incidents happened all over the country and many black towns/communities disappeared. The KKK had their fingers in that pie, too. That's still lightyears away from "the US military will massacre US citizens in response to widespread insurrection." Where do you think the bombs and supplies to do such a thing would come from exactly??? When the New Deal was passed people were blockading state capitols and ready to overthrow governments in a leftist revolution and they weren't getting machine gunned down. In fact, the New Deal passed. Moridin920 has issued a correction as of 22:01 on May 15, 2019 |

Of all the obstacles I can imagine that might hinder progress towards a better future, "the US Government might murder me and thousands of other US citizens if we try" is really not high up there. Now brown foreigners, that's a different story.

Unfortunately, we had higher than expected health care costs and increased wages that impacted our net earnings resulting in an after-tax net income of 3.42% compared to 4.19% in 2016, 3.57% in 2015 and 3.47% in 2014.

Just saw a billboard ad for Uber that was just a picture of a tweet from someone saying "second time an @Uber driver has found and returned my wallet. Thank you!" Just for shits (and because I was bored on the bus) I figured I'd find the tweet, and searching Google and Twitter I can't find it. Whats the over under on Uber straight up falsifying the tweet, vs the person deleting their account?
