    Which the insurance companies voluntarily did to Futz with things... Shocker they found a loophole to fuck people so they did reason #426 to go single payer and kill off the vultures.

    Affordable "insurance" they mean - its apples and oranges between a shit policy and a decent one. And on 'invincibles' for being such isn't it strange the 20-35 demographic is the one that defaults on hospital bills and run to the ER for treatment most often?

    Hard drive swaps are trivial too so 12gb is as good as any if you do a drive swap.

    Honestly its probably to imitate the GOW commercial rather than obfuscation - its obviously intended to appeal to the GOW demographic.

    If you're worried about cost don't they allow resales and rentals over there? I don't care for such generally but they attack the value argument handedly - there's NO PC rentals and one new trade in can be $40+ of credit back on a game in the states. Just from turning in old physical copies I...

    If you've got a microcenter or something like that local - under $50 to get one, ask for a laptop hard drive. 1.5tb or something like that is the most it can recognize and besides being a laptop drive I think it needs to be thinner than 15mm (most are thinner) Its simple to swap with a...

    If you've got a spare hard drive or willing to buy one, try a HD swap first - esp with your DS2 issues sounds reminiscent of my RLOD that a HD swap fixed.

    True, but his overall message is accurate - they did end up backing up Hitler - no matter the means. You're honing in on a poor wording of his, which was ludicrous - but his point that "People didn't stand up to Hitler" truthfully didn't occur for the mostpart, people generally were subversive...

    Well you see most catastrophic plans used to have a "Drop at anytime clause" and with the high deductibles they carry their normal plan was to drop you as soon as you hit the deductible even once while the plans did basically nothing until you hit the deductible. So you'd be paying $50/mo or...

    Plenty of people spoke out against Hitler - the military was in lockstep with him, the populace as a whole was quite mixed. It's pretty well covered that there were dozens of people in support of the people over the Nazis during the time, amongst other things networks of people hiding Jewish...

    I'm unhappy with alot - I think the ACA is pretty shitty and only barely better than what was there before personally to be completely on topic. Yet I'm apparently giving him handjobs and baking him brownies on the weekends or some shit. That's not to say he's not doing an OK job overall...

    Only for family plans that I've seen quoted so far with appropriate listings of before and afters on the policy. Which admittedly some family plans probably shouldn't need it - but for individual plans just because it's listed might just be laziness on the part of the provider for making a...

    You don't think that illegalizing drop at anytime clauses is a step forward, honestly? And 'keep your plan' has been taken so far out of the context of his speech its barely worth acknowledging people that say it. Hint: He stated in advance some plans wouldn't be allowed anymore, he also...

    Because your current catastrophic is a piece of shit that is now illegal no doubt. Catastrophic plans are a joke and even bronze plans are a HUUUUGE step up in coverage. Especially in the states like Texas that allowed 'drop for any reason' clauses that made all catastrophic plans a loser...

    To be fair they could've made her up poorly intentionally added some layers that didn't exist to give the "unappealing view" that Charlie was having from his ego trip to the viewers as well.

    Dunno, I've had people read EIC that way and I've had employees that didn't qualify under such and still got it. Unfortunately that aspect doesn't seem publicly documented. But tax penalties historically can't be dodged such ways.

    Supposedly its going to appear on 1040ez forms so I'd be shocked if it would be avoidable by not filing. (Plus your income has to be pretty low to not file - over something relatively low ($45k I want to say) you're required to file even if you have bullseyed your projected taxes)
