It's interesting, comparing the Dollar Shave Club 4X to the Pace 4 Cartridges it's actually cheaper on DSC. Plus it's handy that it automatically ships. https://www.dollarshaveclub.com/page/checkout/

I really like how this brings up the issue of where you are when you would want to bookmark or remember something. "...the reality of remembering: when, how, what you were doing when visited the link". Having that kind of meta dat

Those some good points, but if some one is living paycheck to paycheck they still can't afford a new device. Also iCloud backup only does so much data before it costs something, so that could be another additional cost that some people

A giga coaster is between 300-399 feet, while a strata coaster is 400+. I guess they didn't include the two strata coasters (Top Thrill Dragster being the second) because they don't go through as long of a ride. https:/&#x2F

Yes, an anecdotal example is my parents. They live 45 minutes outside of Columbus, OH and have a Verizon 4G adapter for their desktop. In fact some of the smaller carriers have poor cell/data coverage where they are.

It was properly regulated before, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass%E2%80%93Steagall_Legisla... . Until people go to jail for the crimes (see Iceland) nothing will get fixed.

I agree that there are no free market systems anywhere and that corruption is a huge problem. That's universal and not just related to healthcare. I would say that another alternative would be full transparency in costs and prices, tha
