Doesn't the Obama care insurance penalty basically do this? Companies are forced to either spend $10000 per employee like they do do now to give them coverage or pay a $2000 fine to the government. The beauty of this is that part time worke

I had a top 3 site on adbrite and was making almost six figures per year around 2004. I got banned without any warning. It was fun while it lasted. Their whole system sucked. They banned me because they wanted me to charge more. Their syste

It costs $121/month for 100% coinsurance, no copay, and a 3000 yearly maximum cost in network. Can no one spend <10% of their income on their health?

The 373 class is very good. They change things up enough to make sure you understand the concepts. I think I might be picking up some sensors and motors from sparkfun pretty soon.
