Middle class people now pay on average a $6,000 deductible before insurance even begins to pay a percentage of their costs. This is in addition to the premiums, which also have increased well over 100% in many states.
So those who are making claims that premiums haven't gone up, are cherry picking data points, and completely ignoring deductible issues. They are making the claim that coverage is cheaper, while ignoring that getting care is much more expensive.
Plans for families typically are $12,000 to $15,000 a year deductible (in addition to premiums). Before ACA it would have been $1,000 - $3,000. ACA has destroyed middle class families, but done so in a way that talking points can be made explaining how great it is because people are covered, but not getting actual healthcare. If your family makes over $40k, you get no subsidies but still are on the hook for $15k deductibles.
BitChute uses a torrent-like distributed peer hosting mechanism to help with scalability. It doesn't work great, even though I really want BitChute to succeed. Sadly, too many videos just stop streaming and you're left waiting an eternity for it to buffer.
First of all let me preface that I am from Europe and I know little about the details of Obamacare. That said, Zach Weinersmith of SMBC fame was discussing the grave financial position in which obamacare has put both him and his wife, sometimes at the beginning of last year. If what he was saying is true, it may be that obamacare was not universally good and that middle income people were, perhaps, penalized substantially?
I have copied all my content to BitChute. The platform is home to some of the most popular political channels on YT, and there are now some great scientific channels as well.
Sadly, BitChute has still some scalability issues, but I'll take that over YT's capricious copyright and political bias despoty.
True for Spectre (which is practically useless for exploits) but not true for Meltdown which is eminently exploitable - a Meltdown exploit does not need to know the precise location of data in kernelspace in order to access it from userspace. Javascirpt can do it.
There's just too fucking much motivation in having a company not do well. It's a perverse motivation on a massive scale. Even if 99.99% of shorters are ethical people, there is still going to be that 0.01% of shorts that aren't.
If the Trump-hate doesn't completely blind you, you might consider that this move would be in exchange for China leaning on Kim Jong Un to start negotiating with the US on denuclearization.

Well, the joke was overplayed and therefore missed the mark.
means, we're fucked.
Most popular is the use of the octopus card - it is the public transport card that many, so very many shops accept as well.
Sounds almost exactly like MyCard in Taiwan. Can you "recharge it" in a convenience store like 7-11?

Thanks, that's really detailed/precise info.

Sorry for the nitpick, but I've been working in cleanrooms for more than a decade, and this sort of shit is glaring to my eyes.
Why does everyone want money?
Dude, I am not against ads if they're non-intrusive.
They have among the most outrageous ad policies. You can't browse their site with an ad blocker, at all.

There is no independent confirmation of the existence of this rifle. Absolutely none.

I watched the entire debate. Peterson was brilliant as usual. But I don't get the point of that minuscule little snippet of the video.
Only to a misogynist like yourself. Why are you afraid of women that stand up for themselves, coward?
And out comes the militant feminist, slinging character assassinations left and right. Must be a pretty miserable life, being you.
The perpetrator is almost always a woman, not a man.
I don't know about millenial, but "feminist" is definitely an insult of high order.
I know there was one model, made by Eizo... but Eiso isn't even in business anymore.
It would be nice if monitor manufacturers started targeting the niche market a bit.
Also, 3:4 aspect ratio, please.

A lot of scientific machinery has a similar, and even longer, lifespan. I still use lab equipment running on DOS.

Go back to the Bush administration and Colin Powell had a personal server too... and he too used it for business...
Aren't people getting tired of whataboutism like this? It's a logical fallacy and it doesn't help the conversation.
If you profit from success, you want success. If you profit from failure, you want failure. Any more questions?
This. So simple, but somehow people who defend short selling have a blind spot and just can't figure it out.
Short selling creates a whole host of perverse motivations. It tempts people to do nasty and illegal things.
I have a similarly dim view of high frequency trading, but that's a whole different can o' worms.

Instead, he's landed a cushy job at CNN.
I don't care, I am not going to patronize a regime that supports ISIS.
