  1. If you've got the dough, just let Dr. Mason at Bumrungrad do your shoulder and be done with it. He did mine 10-15 years ago and it has been perfect. It thought I has an issue with the second one a year or two later ready to spend the money, he looked at it and told me to quit sleeping on it.
  2. I read the some of her fellow teachers were walking out on a few of "Dr." Jill's campaign events...
  3. They really can't do anything without the support of a majority of congress.
  4. Do you think it's okay for a news outlet to lie if they're not successfully sued for it? In any event, most if not all have been successfully sued for lying.
  5. Okay, that's one. But to be clear, I did not say all antisemites loved Biden. That all ya got?
  6. Is there a news outlet of any kind that has not been exposed for lying?
  7. It's even worse in the US. In the US, when I earn money, it is taxed. If I save that money, it is taxed again. If I spend the money I have saved, it is taxed again.
  8. Correct. The actual cost generally is: Cost + Freight + Tax 1 + Tax 2 = Landed Cost (Cost + Freight) X Duty = Tax 1 (Cost + Freight + Tax 1) X VAT = Tax 2
  9. What're you a right-winger? You make an argument that VAT should be eliminated altogether (which I would support, because it is hideously regressive), but in this case it's just the same 7% you'd have to pay if you bought the item domestically, and you are still avoiding the import duty. It's "social engineering". The gub-ment wants you to buy domestically produced products, which helps the county and disproportionally the poor. When you import otherwise taxable products, you not only avoid paying the tax, but you also negatively impact the importer.
  10. I have a blue arrow, does that mean I'm communist?
  11. So, every time you pay, it will round up, and every time you collect it will round down. No thanks.
  12. So, it is possible for an EV to be involved in an accident and not have a fire.
  13. Really? I've never heard that, do you have a source?
  14. Because it is a republic, not a pure democracy. Representative government, one of our biggest mistakes was the 17th amendment. Most of the time, gridlock is the best thing that can happen.
  15. Who do you watch such that you have been able to form an opinion?
  16. A "little different" indeed. I liked it.
