All these inflationary Biden expectations have driven up the price of bitcoin (and hubby would not sell at $19k and refused to sell at $42k - good thing he doesn't listen to buy and sell me and hangs on to EVERYTHING he has - I guess that includes old, starting to grey me too).

That didn't prevent you from talking out of your ass about this Biden 'inflation' and how it's driving the coin price.

When you say that, you're talking about bitcoin as an investment, not as a gift. If it was a gift, you wouldn't give two shits if it goes up and down, as it cost you nothing to begin with.

I (whose opinion doesn't matter since they aren't mine) see it as an investment. He (whose opinion does matter as they are his) sees it as something he never paid for, had fun mining and so whatever price it's at, it's a plus.

BTW, a few years ago, I think it was MIT that GAVE away bitcoin to anyone with a .edu account (to play/experiment with). Dd's fraction of a bitcoin is now worth $800. That department must be regretting that decision now.

But that's the point. Why would MIT regret giving away something that was likely free for them.

Plus, people sell investments before they go up all the time. That happens millions of times a day. If you still regret any of that years later, you have bigger problems, tbh

Agreed

Trump is the real RINO

The party of Bush/Reagan is on a whole different plane than Trump. Trump was a registered Democrat the majority of his life but saw an opportunity to run as a Republican and run on the "we're going to rebuild the glory days of the industrial revolution" crap which admittedly won a ton of blue collar union voters ("deplorables") that had long previously gone Democrat, which won him the Great Lakes states in 2016, but at the greater expense of the suburban educated white-collar voters that had long been Republican but flipped blue in heavily populated suburbs in states like Virginia, Colorado, Arizona, and even Georgia. North Carolina for some reason still clang to the Trump GOP by a hair but normally they are a much redder state than that.

Trump won't be tried at the federal level. Biden/Pelosi will ultimately bury the hatchet. Now if the squad was in charge it might be different. But they're not. The establishment DNC/GOP both are smarter than to do that which could potentially invoke a civil war.

He'll definitely be indicted in the state of New York. He'll claim Florida residency and probably end up just paying millions or even billion(s) in a settlement to the State of New York. So he can retire from politics comfortably and play golf the rest of his days in South Beach.

Saw that.


U.S. doctors are the most likely to have trouble getting their patients medication or treatment because of restrictions on insurance coverage. Compared to most of the other countries, larger percentages of adults in the U.S. say they spend a lot of time on paperwork related to medical bills. For nonemergency care, U.S. and Canadian adults are also more likely to visit the emergency department — a less efficient option than seeing a regular doctor.


In contrast, the U.S. consistently demonstrated the largest disparities between income groups, except for those measures related to preventive services and safety of care. U.S. disparities are especially large when looking at financial barriers to accessing medical and dental care, medical bill burdens, difficulty obtaining after-hours care, and use of web portals to facilitate patient engagement. Compared to the other countries, the United States and Canada had larger income-related inequities in patient reported experiences.

Exhibit 7 illustrates the importance of comparing country performance on equity: relatively good performance on a health care measure overall may mask pronounced gaps in the experiences of lower-income versus higher-income groups. It also illustrates the challenge that arises in assessing equity without also considering performance overall: income-related differences on a measure may be small, but a nation’s performance may be comparatively poor for both higher- and lower-income groups.

We waste a lot of human potential by not investing in the well being of our poorest.

RandomGuy

The U.S. ranks last overall on the health care outcomes domain (Exhibit 1). On nine of the 10 component measures, U.S. performance is lowest among the countries (Appendix 8), including having the highest infant mortality rate (5.7 deaths per 1,000 live births) and lowest life expectancy at age 60 (23.1 years). The U.S. ranks last on the mortality measures included in this report, with the exception of 30-day in-hospital mortality following stroke. The U.S. rate of preventable mortality (177 deaths per 100,000 population) is more than double the best-performing country, Switzerland (83 deaths per 100,000).
