Those who don't work already have healthcare coverage through Medicaid. The 40+ million who don't include a great number of individuals who do work but don't get healthcare benefits through their employer and can't afford them out of pocket. ya ya ya.....

is the lack of a bump itself a different kind of bump?

Checkpoint Charlie => Great band. Super version of 96 Tears!

While watching check this out. I really like the graph near the bottom: link

Mattp- Damn you're giving me a headache! Item two in Dmuja's list does not seem fraudulent at all. My guess is that the insured did not read his coverage and his surprise is simply the result of his own irresponsibility. That is not being familiar with his coverage. Second WRT Item #1 – W/o more information (here I am betting FW is correct) there is no way to know if Dmuja’s story is at all reflective of reality. These two issues aside, your statement “Here's a compilation of news stories that suggest insurance companies may regularly do what dmuja reports above” is not persuasive in the slightest. How does that list prove that insurance companies “regularly” do what Dmuja reports? Do you have any idea how many claims are handled per hour by insurance companies in the USA?

I can almost taste that wonderful post election beer......

ya but women like that seem (from my experience) to be few and far between...thus my dismal dating life.

Don't be shy Minxy...after all Pink has climbed El Cap. What woman can be expected to resist that?

So thinking about the 14yo hunter who shot and killed a woman hiker and then reading this story made me wonder what the punishment should be. I think in some ways it is a complete waste of resources to spend much effort on "punishing" these guys.

Whatever happens I'll show up for the parade!

Sobo she was good for a bit. In the end she couldn't resist her infatuation for pink and just had to post. Pink - You're the man!

The baseball season has been great! USA Olympic Softball...undefeated! Olympic Baseball! So many close races! (Go Dodgers! Go Cubs!) Jr in the AL again! Mill Creek Little League!!!!!!!!!! Tampa Bay Ruling the East Coast! Morrow working on starting in Tacoma! Aquasox just being themselves! Portland Beavers on TV! (Check 'em out in Tacoma at month's end!

Ya Matt your language is telling. You would sign up for the "clear creek road & campground" Fuck singing up. You'd have to pay for the right to operate the road. Out bid the competition. This would be free markets not some government right handed out to the well connected. Free your mind. oh yea Piss off too

Amen brother Start the road auction now! Except let the owners decide the pricing structure.

From various web sources today: The dollar headed for a fifth weekly gain against the euro, Europe's gross domestic product fell 0.2 percent in the second quarter, the first contraction since the 15-nation common currency was introduced in 1999, the European Union's statistics office said yesterday. Japan's economy shrank at an annual rate of 2.4 percent in the second quarter, the Cabinet Office said this week. Crude oil for September delivery decline The Dow Jones industrials are up 44 points at the 11,660 level. Don't forget gold

Hey Matt: ever consider that proper prices will lead to a more efficient economic organization? No you just want to preserve the "powers that be" no matter how many band aids are needed. Oh yea: McCain in 2012 two terms!

hey pussy face (KKK) take your head out of GGK's ass and I am sure he'll take his out of yours his hand out of yours: I would be willing to give up my subsidy benfits in order to improve the common weal. That's called being a honorable patriot. Oh yea Mattp Piss off. there I said it.

oh yea all of you piss off!

Let’s get rid of publicly subsidized “public transportation” in its entirety. Why the hell should I help pay for someone’s trip to see the Seahawks? Or Huskies? Or ,dare I say it the, Ms! Get the government out of Public Transportation! I would add that many laws have been written expressly to make "private" Public transportation uneconomical a best and downright illegal at worse in order to help support "public" public transportation and union workers.
