And you equate that to the universal healthcare system or to broader societal norms dictating that people should take better care of themselves in your country? Would you mind sharing what country that is?

That’s true but I’m talking about the US, not other countries. And obesity is one of many areas where we have massive issues compared to just European counterparts, let alone the world. In many of these countries you’re talking about, they won’t spend $1,000,000 trying to keep grandma alive for another 2 weeks because…

In a lot of ways that’s exactly what will happen....people don’t take care of themselves as it is now. Why would they start when healthcare is free. You massively overestimate society at large.

I struggle with this one...First, I’ve experienced first hand how these systems play out in my native country and it’s not something I want to have follow me to the new world. Second, this line of thinking could be extended to almost any situation (job loss for example):

The last three sentences....perfection.

It’s similar to saying unfortunate or miserable.....

Looks like someone from Venezuela....maybe?

Depending on where they live, if they drive a car, they will be called to serve on a jury.

You really think it goes 12? Connor, as much as I like him, gets gassed after 3 rds in the octagon.....so that would translate to 7 rds boxing? I say he lasts 7 rds unless Mayweather comes out swinging instead his usual, play defense, style.

But that’s an NCAA issue....I doubt Michigan, and the others in the Power 5 conferences, would have any issue directly paying players if the NCAA allowed them to do so.

I would lump the Australian Open in with the US Open, personally, as the courts are the same surface. So, in my mind, you have 3 surfaces and two of them have similar characteristics (grass and hard court) that favor a certain style of play - hard hitting with minimal bounce. It makes sense if you are strong on…

A dealer would be able to do that? Seems a bit.....fraud-ish, no?

Stanford regularly takes the director’s cup (22 years in a row) and they are pretty damn strong academically....I’d put them #1.

I’m mildly allergic to potato’s so I actually DO hate them....

Yup...and pay dividends. That’s the only way they can really grow is to grow their dividend over the years.

The answer to your question lies in the PE multiple that is applied to any given stock. Companies with large growth opportunities are given large multiples which keeps their stock at higher than they should be levels. Profitable companies with low growth potential are given low PE multiples which keeps their stock…

What a bunch of bullshit...she didn’t mean to hit her in the head, just tried to break her embrace. What else was she supposed to do? She was getting hugged from behind and there was no call.....someone else caught a girl getting felt up at the 6.

Or he wanted to get away from an organization that seemed to actively hate him.

Well, to be fair CA has A LOT going for it outside of the business regulatory environment which makes putting up with some bullshit completely worth it anyway.

Aw, shit, you’re right. My apologies, English isn’t my first language.
