well, there's an easy solution to this. DON'T BUY WHAT YOU CAN'T AFFORD! Those frames you speak of are DESIGNER frames. Do you really need those? No you don't.
I agree with you - don't buy things you cannot afford.
But, assuming you can afford them - while I might not "need" those frames, I like them and want them. Again, assume I CAN afford them.
Health Insurance: Sorry, Sir, Firefighting Is A Pre-Existing Condition (http://consumerist.com/5363521/sorry-sir-firefighting-is-a-pre+existing-condition - broken link)
I guess obama can't really demonize those Americans who are happy with their HC - about 85%.
He's got to find someone to demonize and target as the "enemy".
Never thought I'd see a US President so bent on targeting and demonizing those entities that are an integral part of US growth.
You go Sanrene... someone's got to speak for the poor and powerless health insurance companies, especially since republicans are out of congress and white house for now. $85 billion over a year is chump change after all as "net profit", when it would be the cost of the reform to cover virtually everybody, along with rest of the reform (except that, then it becomes an expensive proposition).
I guess we shoudl irradicate Social Security, Medicare/Medicaid, public education.. etc etc.
God..what a Moderator cut: language this country would be without those programs..
Who said anything about those programs ? Thought this conversation was about the health care bill 0bama is trying to sell that you obviously know not too much about ?
Yes, those are outrageous. I was charged $40 for a tylenol once at an ER.
Yep they will get you. I do medical billing and coding on the side and the stuff I see makes my stomach turn. A surgeon can perform a surgery for 45 minutes and they will charge you for two hours ( room time). same with doctors offices, they see you for 15, they charge an hour (visit fee), even if you are just waiting.
You can quote all the statistics you can find. When a pair of eyeglasses costs $1200, something is WRONG. And if the President is the only person in a position of authority willing to do something about that, then he deserves a hell of a lot more support than he's getting.
Where the heck do you buy your glasses?
