Huge study about safety can be misinterpreted by SUV drivers

Technically, no. There has to be a real penis involved somewhere.

Canada and western Europe have a lot less obesity and a lot more healthy behaviors
too. But that's probably the governments fault that people stuff themselves and
don't exercise. After all the government should be telling us what to do and how
to do it at all times, right?

 

But the same could be said of those who would want the right to marry their
dog or their tree (admitedly ridiculous examples, but they illustrate my
point, i.e., those "groups" could complain for the same reasons, or they
could have additional reasons, no less valid in an "everything goes" world,
like you are restricting those things to humans/people, or, say to human
*adults*).

Do yourself a favor and read "The Millionaire Next-Door. The Surprising Secrets
of America's Wealthy" by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko. The people
that have built up wealth in this country are also janitors and other lower
income workers. With a little common sense you can do it too. But you
certainly don't do this by activities such as renting cars for the long term.

 

Boeing wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for state subsidies, and it continues to
get guaranteed low interest loans.

You're referring to the deal that Linda Daschle, wife of Thomas Daschle
(Democrat, South Dakota) has been lobbying hard for on behalf of Boeing. Oops!
You forgot to mention that part, I'm sure.

 

Hospitals invest in the technology they need to meet the demand for services and
survive. But your claim is silly, hospitals often refer patients to other
hospitals with more specialized equipment and physicians, on emergency and
non-emergency basis all the time.

 

I don't dispute that, but even in marriages sometimes the children
aren't necessarily of the expected parentage.

(With the exception of cloning which is not available to us yet - but
that's a whole other can of worms) A gay couple can't have children
(adoption excluded). If there is a gay "couple", for there to be a
biologically derived kid, there has to be direct or indirect biological
opposite-sex interaction. Two people of the same sex (a gay "couple")
cannot biologically have a child.

No - a conservative black person is automatically disqualified and is to
be figuratively castrated or lynched whenever possible. They don't
refer to them as the NAA*L*CP for no reason.

Citation for your factoid? Article, Issue, Date, Page Number? I have access to
Fortune's archives so it will be no trouble to find your alleged source. (Perhaps
merely mentioning a Magazine name is good enough for your class, Professor, but it
certainly was not sufficient for any of mine.)

Yes that explains why Wyeth has been downsizing to survive. Some companies make
consistent profits, some don't and die.

Your point? What companies DON"T advertise?

You're suggesting that US citizens should subsidize ALL healthcare. Unless you
are suggested that "the government" just pay for everything without realizes who
pays "the government." But hey, we always hear how illegal aliens pay so many
taxes too right? That should makes us feel better.

But then again you said, HMO's are "all run by insurance companies, and they sure
are for profit" as if the sample of not for profit HMOs above don't exist, despite
being some of the largest.

 

Only in LloydLand. Medicare, Medicaid, and state medical assistance in the USA
pays for such services every day. Many hospitals and their doctors operate free
clinics for low income patients in addition to this.

 

But a combination of Medicaid, Medicare, and state medical assistance does.

 

Yeah, right. Next time try actually reading what you respond to.

 

Who would you have given the same contracts to instead?

You get to vote for the representatives and Senators of your choice.

 

When even you are sure you don't have an argument, you resort to calling somebody
"Taliban." Cute.

 

Which is not a "subsidy."
