  1. What about the other direction? In or out? The moratorium issue, just boom in the next week, maybe is not right but why not say - figure it out - be where you want to be by January 1. 2018 - the moratorium is in effect for the year and will then be evaluated. Totally, fair - nobody but nobody goes to Afghanistan or whatever and nobody comes to the USA from that country. Every race, color, or creed. If you are an American citizen that does not get his butt home by January 1 - well that is too bad.
  2. We have lost the affordability for the demographic with less than 60k income. I don't think it is so much the age of the people that do not want to have to buy insurance - it is whether they have assets to protect. People with no assets just do not care and are willing to take that chance because they are living from one paycheck to the next and can barely pay the bills as it is.

  4. Hi, young people just get emergency care and file bankruptcy when they have no insurance. They have no assets to protect, yet. That is like shoplifting and shifts the cost to the people that do have insurance. People that have property - assets - would lose everything to a big claim and they are stuck paying a premium affected by cost shifting.
  5. Blue Cross in South Dakota is not a member of the marketplace so that is for rich people that do not need a subsidy. Avera and Sanford are in the marketplace.
  6. Why even try to win more than 5k on slots offshore? How much can you win and collect without a major investigation? Does this guy collect if he cashes at 5k? What if this guy uses 10k of his winnings and bets it in the Sports Book? Wins 2k - does he get to keep it? What if he loses 2k and they void the casino winnings?
  7. 4A or 4B? Big difference if the cancer has not spread to other organs! Best wishes - support all you can!
  8. Man, the guy gets hurt every year? Great player - fund to watch but the Clippers have to find a Dak Prescott - give up and move on. Does not look like he can ever make a full season?
  9. Had 2 - passed one and surgery on the other because there were two stones that moved and got stuck together, like two pieces of rice. Then they put a stent in so the irritated areas in the ureter would heal properly. From what I learned it is important to analyse the stone to determine it's makeup - primarily calcium based or acidic. My ph level was acidic so the Doctor prescribed a potassium pill 3 times a day to get my ph levels a steady 5.5 again. Been two years now and the potassium pills are working.
  10. How about some non playoff teams? Timberwolves? Knicks if Phil Jackson was the coach?w The team that deserves him is OKC. Wouldn't it be justice after Durant left? I actually think that the best answer is OKC or Houston with Lebron James
  11. On shares - you have the expenses (fuel,seed,fertilizer,chemical, etc). I have heard of a 1/3 share and no expenses. You still have the property tax on the ground to consider!
  12. Let's not forget that the Bulls are very average at home and the Celtics are good on the road. A 9 point swing in the line from The game in Boston - the NBA is pretty amazing with playoffs and home court as opposed to the sports one and done in college. My opinion is that Boston is a good play in the next game.
  13. Teachers are beautiful people but they work with young minds day in and day out. Totally different than the interaction a factory worker has with their fellow man?
  14. Sports forums were originally invented to be watchdogs and inform readers about shaky places to bet at - where people were getting screwed over. Then we found out there should be watchdogs to watch the watchdogs. The discussion earlier on whether money paid to touts is lost to the gambling ecosystem was interesting. Consider the fact that touts generate some volume - how much is anybody's guess? Losing volume is good for the sports book and the winning player. I don't know - Samuel Colt invented a pistol that killed a lot of people. Wonder if he slept at night? But, my opinion is winning players should be happy that touts are around to get volume into the books that would not be there otherwise. When you think of the scenarios of what would it take to put the sports books out of business one of the big things would be if more people won. Ever heard of a sports book kicking a player out because he won using a tout's picks?
  15. The list of unscrupulous touts is long. The list of crooked tracking websites or endorsements to promote a shady tout is pretty long as well. The amount of disinformation is massive!
  16. Yes, if someone actually plays at Pinny or some other places that clone or layoff at Pinny you can see the number - refresh the screen - number is still there - try to bet it and it will not confirm at the price and changes. So, it was a number that was not actually there. As far as someone tracking - they are giving the tout credit for an air number and that is not accurate. I have always thought the only way to track touts was to do it yourself and if your results come pretty close to info available then I feel ok about the accuracy. But, is it worth it to do all this tracking? There are no shortcuts - anybody who wants to win needs to compile their own data - make their own line - define their own value - track their own results. I fail to see why RAS sells picks if they are so good or why Bob tracks Fezzik unless it is for entertainment or some type of endorsement or criticism of Fezzik.
  17. That is why I brought it up. There is a massive thread there where Bob tracks Fezzik. Interesting site - kind of like a forum for touts or wannabee touts.
  18. Do you have to buy them all? How do you track the entire body of work at a price that is possible? Isn't that the catch 22 of touts - there is absolutely no way to believe what the tout says and any and all trackers do not have all the picks at the real time and price?
  19. So, you headed to the Horseshoe-dog track in Council Bluffs to play poker?
  20. Ok, so how does one get the picks of all these touts in order to accurately track them?
  21. Without the government's help - Crop insurance - flood insurance - Medicare Part D - et al - would all break the insurance companies covering those things. Eventually the government will have to help pay the claims on medical insurance and then they can get help control the premiums if the insurance companies do not have to worry about underwriting losses. More stringent control of what providers can charge. The providers will be able to do this if they do not have to worry about getting stiffed.
  22. It is not just the poor people that would be affected - incomes up to 80k will need to find a way to pay 20k in insurance. If the big complaint is high premiums the government is going to need to subsidize claims similar to crop and flood insurance. Everything has consequences - the part about America First-how does turning our back on lower income America help make America great again?
