It won't. Socialized medicine works. Note: It probably doesn't just bankrupt old people here… I've seen whole families affected by last-ditch efforts to squeeze out a few more months. Second mortgages. College funds. It'

It all depends on where you live Maarten. I'm from Holland. Moved to a 'burb' three years ago after nearly 20 years in NYC. We picked a town where some of the things you mention are still a reality (spontaneous play, kids wal

Correct insertion of the extra P tells me so much about you. This whole social class stuff is quite funny when you start thinking about it. I'm terribly judgmental it seems...

I don't believe for one second that the people running the dispensaries never 'partook'. It takes a fan of the merchandise to run these things and communicate with the clientele. They just weren't caught. Why not? I susp

This data is from 2005! A lot has changed since. I can't quickly google the date it changed (before of after 2005?) but during the first bubble of 1999-2001, H1B holders were beholden to their employers as they were not allowed to look
