Your whole objection is to his statement, "you [women] shouldn't complain when it is difficult because you [they] are swimming upstream", but you misunderstood what he was saying. "When it is difficult because you are s

Why would the price of labor be treated any differently than any other price. In general, inflation is more dollars chasing less goods and services(where services includes, but is not limited to, individual labor of any sort). To be fair

Unfortunately, a lot of doctors believe that to become a doctor, you need to practice on real patients. I believe there is artificial reduction in the number of doctors minted each year, but I also realize there are practical limits on tha

It is possible to get prices and negotiate - healthcare providers just aren't used to it. I was just listening to a good friend who doesn't carry insurance negotiate on price for an elective procedure he was thinking about having

I make $110k per year. I pay, $15k in child support, and save $40k per year. Yes, you can easily save $80k per year on a $200k salary. It just depends on how you decide to spend your money.

It's been mentioned elsewhere, but machine learning combined with big data is here in a big way. If you are not at least aware of the value of these skills, you are way behind the curve.

"larger house and nicer car and poof it's gone." I guess you could spend your money that way. $200k is considered affluent, at least around Texas. I imagine it's not really a lot if you live out on the west coast.

There's plenty of falsifiable evidence that suggests that adhering to religion is good for the individual, So there are positive benefits as well. There are also examples of religions doing good for humanity. To say that Newton's

Although theological beliefs are rarely falsifiable, that doesn't mean they don't matter or render no benefit.

That's not irrational. Also, try building things for yourself, and trading rather than living a life of consumerism. It's the only way to opt out of having your personally created wealth redistributed.

Well, the original source was in support of calling myself and President Trump racists. If you read the article or do some studying on the subject, there are very few actual facts . None of which support the claim that I am racist or Don

I recommend you cross examine liberal and conservative news sources, since, we have a fundamentally polarized and biased media system. Furthermore, you could just read the primary sources since they are all publicly available at the courth

Good thing the rules are agreed to before the competition. BTW, the popular vote hasn't been completely counted, and probably never will be. Absentee ballot, which generally favor Republicans, will not be counted in any of the states

I did no such thing. I extrapolated his undetailed version of events. It goes both ways, you can say that means "black people" are in the right, or you can say Donald Trump is in the right because there are no facts to support e

The entire argument here seems to hinge on the idea that government regulation makes it easier to show liability, thus making an industry safer. I think this is totally off base. It assumes that safety innovation is only achieved via regul
