  1. I would rather see Wall penetrate and dish than keep missing layups, between the turnovers and missed layups your looking at 8 lost posessions and its early.
  2. We look sloppy just like in the first 2 games, John needs to get his head out of his ass, he got benched for being erratic and making bad decisions and there's no way we can win with him doing that. Good job by Porter
  3. I wrote that wrong, one of my points was supposed to be that they can write off R&D on their corporate returns, my bad. I actually have really good coverage but what I'm told is because its a proprietory brand they wont cover it all but when I pay out of pocket they apply it towards my deductible which does help with future purchases of other types of drugs and services.
  4. Amgen makes Neulasta, they are a publickly traded company that made $22 billion in 2015. I do understand they dont use Federal grants and they fund their research (Which they cant write off on their corporate taxes) themselves which means the cost gets passed on to me. I think the government or any new healthcare plan needs to understand when a drug is developed in the private sector and patented and you will have no chance at getting a generic so something has to be done to lower the cost of 1 shot @ $6000. Companies are going to continue to create new drugs and patent them and some will be a crucial to certain medical protocols so if you want to lower costs this would be one placve to start.
  5. Thanks for asking, I just completed my 3rd round last Tuesday, its kicking my ass but only for about 12 or 13 days from the day treatment starts. After that your body comes back to normal and you start to feel ok but then its time for another round. I just got my doc to give me an extra week before my next round, all in all its not very much fun but its manageable with proper support from family.
  6. But those are tied to loss of coverage at work, also if a condition is pre-existing then could that really be seen as a life changing event, it was life changing before it became pre-existing. It's not clear, I feel like most of these people we're focusing on wouldn't get ACA anyway, but I could be wrong. I can tell you the ACA wouldn't let me sign up this year outside of my 60 day window for losing coverage at work (I forfeited coverage). I also had a pre-existing condition, its a nasty one too. EDIT: Ok after digging in deeper this pool of money will be for those people who live in states who opt out and kick everyone with pre-existing conditions out of coverage.
  7. I'm just not getting this new bill. So if you maintain continuous coverage for 60 days then preexisting conditions are covered. If you don't have insurance and you have pre-existing conditions then this set-aside pool of money will help those individuals. The ACA is like any other healthcare plan where you have to enter under open enrollment. If you're uninsured and have a preexisting condition would you even be in a situation where you could currently get ACA coverage? Are they changing this rule with the new bill?
  8. Gortat lacks skill and confidence, good thing he can rebound.
  9. Its hard to watch Gortat let smaller players take rebounds from him over and over, just seems tough for us to really make a push as a team with him as our starting center, he plays scared, weak, and without any confidence.
  10. A 4-2 series win vs the 5 seed is solid, I don't like the way Gortat is playing but glad Morris stepped up. Could you imagine if Wall hit close to 50% from the field on a consistent basis?
  11. Its amazing we were in this game as poor as we played, hopefully we remember how to play basketball again before game 5.
  12. The loss doesn't bother me but getting our ass handed to us does, we didn't take it to the Hawks at the VC like they are today. Morris has no emotion at all. Bogdanovic is a shooter who can't shoot and its been that way for weeks. Why is Schroder (AKA Pookie) unstoppable. Where the hell is our defense.
  13. Reading those last tweets, this is not about ripping the Freedom Caucus for not passing a ****ty bill, its about the FC not having a solution and presenting their own option. They want to sit back and have the work done for them while they shove food down their face and take naps. Congress is a joke, most wouldn't make it in today's corporate America, businesses don't wait to resolve a problem because their prosperity depends on problem-solving. These idiots in Congress have no sense of urgency.
  14. Impressive win, to hold that 10 point lead for what seemed like the entire game was a statement, hopefully we use this to get back on track for the playoffs. I'm hoping Bogo's injury is just a day to day thing.
  15. I don't think the Freedom Caucus will ever be happy, the teabaggers are never going to be ok with subsidies and entitlements so at this point everyone should act as if they don't exist and find your votes elsewhere. Did anyone get a chance to see these bums in the board room during the Healthcare negotiation, they were all shoving food down their face looking like they were ready for their Thanksgiving nap. While this was going on Paul was handing out copies of "Art of the Deal" to each of them. I was hoping this was a Sat Night Live skit but that wasn't the case.
  16. Its all good, just wanted to point what happens in the real world when you get one of these diseases, because we have proprietary medicines they will never be covered by health insurance no matter how great of a plan you have. You would think after paying that I could at least spell the name of the medicine correctly. Its Neulasta not the other thing I posted.
  17. I paid $6000 for a Neulasta shot last week, bite on that for a bit.
  18. I said in here a while back I didn't believe Obamacare would ever be repealed because Republicans dont have the balls to remove something that in general is pretty good. What worries me is that I think the bill is an open beta and needs fine tuning. We have one option here in Florida, that option is good but if it goes away we're screwed, then you have rising costs and other items that worry someone who pays for their own health insurance. I truly believe Healthcare is a Democratic bill, I wouldn't be surprised if Trump started working with the left, its the only way this thing gets done correctly.
  19. No, it's just easy to exploit people on both sides, I have watched demonstrators asked specific basic political questions while rallying and they don't even know what that are protesting about, they don't know names of politicians, they don't even know the difference in the house and the Senate. I replied because it's a typical post by you, just a pile on without any real value.
  20. If you think dummies on the right are the only dummies who are confused by the actual name and slang name you're fooling yourself. Dumb is everywhere and doesn't discriminate.
  21. What pisses me off is if you don't like the bill then write one that fits your constituents, don't just sit there and do nothing. The bill may be a large terd but there are no excuses for that when you have had time to provide your own bill which you can sign with peace of mind. But we have 1 bill that everyone hates, great job. The Republicans are in charge and if they miss on this they have failed miserably and they deserve to lose their jobs. You don't get to play it safe by just sitting on your ass, I hope Trump goes on a 10 hour Twitter tirade and throws every one of them under the bus. The last thing is if conservative principles are keeping this bill from being "good" then Trump needs to break away and exploit those who are holding up progress. Move to the middle and restructure Obamacare and forget about the Freedom Caucus and the rest of the dinosaurs, he never really was a Republican so I think you pull in Democrats along with moderate Republicans to rewrite Obamacare. Bottom line, Pual Ryan is worthless and so are most of the Republicans when it comes to healthcare.
  22. I would be embarrassed if I were a Republican in the House and in 7 years I couldn't come up with a comprehensive healthcare bill. Congress makes the laws not the President so the fact these guys and gals stand around waiting for things to happen instead of being problem solvers shows they really don't give a **** about helping people they just want to play it safe so they can keep their job. Good luck next election dumbasses.
  23. Why would congress be involved, it's full of idiots on both sides with agenda's, let our intelligence agencies do the work. It's hard for me to believe our intelligence agencies aren't aware of everything that has been said, the fact they aren't releasing incriminating data tells me there is none. Maybe that changes but I'm glad Sessions recused himself, that way the left can **** about something else for the next few weeks and they have no more excuses on an unfair investigation. You never answered my prior question, hows that 401k doing?
