    I understand all that but all im saying is I want choice, I want to decide what level of insurance I want, I dont believe it should be as complecated as it has been in the past nor as horrible as this coming out

    that is a possibility. but what I dont like is I now am FORCED to pay for terms that I dont agree with nor want. I as a male, do not want to pay for breast cancer screenings as one example. There is no reason I should be paying a higher rate due to services I will never use.

    true In some cases that seem to be the norm, In my case, I will have a higher deductible a lower max payment and a higher copay then I have now. I am in NY so we actually have the local exchange vs the fed exchange. what I do have an issue with is the government telling me whats best for me. I dont know how you can believe the government when it seems as if every day we catch them in a new lie.

  7. Re:Never used iTunes on Ask Slashdot: Best FLOSS iTunes Replacement In 2013? · · Score: 1

    Same here as well. I have a very large collection (600+ gig) all nicely organized by either /artist/album or in some cases /record label/artist/album (sounds strange but it works best for some of the stuff I do)I also ripped a whole lot of CDs in the 90s as well.I used winamp religiously, even created my own skins for it (figure I was 12-16 in the time frame) but these days I just use the file structure find the folder I want to play usually I play based on artist and ill just hit the play all on the artist folder. It wont work for everyone but it works for me

    what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. ~

    Clearly you havent looked at american cars since the early 90s. In the years since we got our asses handed to us in the segment we have made great strides. The fuzion and the impala are both better cars than the toyotas and hondas for the higher end cars, the focus ST will roll all over the civic and corolla. Try actually looking at and driving some of them

  21. Re:**all** music fans not just metalheads on Piracy Offers Heavy Metal a New Business Model · · Score: 1

    Well said, I listen to a lot of music that most people find to be horrible music (insane clown posse, twiztid, tech n9ne, also country and classical music) and for the artists I care about, sure I download the CDs and have the entire back catalog, however I also *buy* the CDs on the date of release to add to my collection. There is something special about opening a CD and looking through the packaging of a band that you love. I COULD have saved thousands of dollars by only downloading everything but for the handful of bands i follow, I will support them with merch sales CD sales ticket sales

    I have no issue with him sending his kids to private schools. But I think there is a good argument for sending them to the same schools he wants the rest of us to go to. He works for us, he is not a king, and he should send his kids to the same schools that he believes that we should be forced to go to by doing as you said, killing the voucher program

    you see it sometimes, Usually when it is a small app maker posting a story about his direct issues regarding it. however in general you are right it does not happen all to often here.
