  1. Based on some research that I did (not the kind of research for a phd though) I could see that google must have an algorithm that would exclude results that google did not like. I think that was in the news a few months or a couple of years ago. I can't even remember what the subject was so I am unable to provide any links to any news articles.
  2. Did you look at your link? It pulls up 1,447 responses! Would you please just show me where you said the "mandatory" requirement is in the rules, where you wrote that it was?
  3. Oh, but I did and I checked one book out from the library. Soon after, I had visits from classmates that wanted to see the pictures. While I was interested in the pictures, I was also interested in what I was reading, which in most cases I failed miserably to understand due to what I eventually came to understand, was the frequent use of the Latin language. I quickly became bored with the book and took it back to the library with a week left on the 2 week check out.
  4. OK, so you do not want to quote the rule. I ask that you do because I can not find a rule that says it is "mandatory" to post a link!
  5. How is his question trolling?
  6. One thing I have found about posting youtube comments. Sometimes I have no problem, other times, I have to disable the VPN to post. It's hit or miss.
  7. Well damn! So it is! Color me shocked! Excuse me while I shut up about obamacare.
  8. Could you, perhaps, quote the rule number and rule?
  9. I misunderstood. I thought the captchas were with google, the only search engine I get them with and with youtube, owned by google.
  10. My plan covers my wife and myself anywhere in the United States. It covers us both in Thailand, or Japan, Germany, UK, India, etc. Any where there is a U.S. Embassy, my health care plan will cover me there. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal Employees Plan. I am on Medicare, but my health care plan still pays for both of us, just more for my wife than me. Medicare says I owe this much ..... to the medical provider. My health care sends me a letter and says, they paid it. Otherwise I would still be paying money. For example, I have had multiple skin cancers last year that have been treated by radiation treatments, rather than cutting chunks of flesh from me. I had to go in for 21 treatment sessions for each skin cancer. More than 100 times I went in with a copay of $120.00 after Medicare That is over $12,000.00 that Medicare did not pay for.
  11. Are you using a VPN. I find that when my VPN is active, I have to do capta, but not if the VPN is not active.
  12. Yes, I did. Twice, just this week! https://aseannow.com/terms/
  13. That is interesting. Those are much lower figures than the obamacare website provided when it went on line, which is when I checked, a few months later. I also called the call center for the obamacare system and spoke to a woman. That was how I found out that I had to get permission to visit a health care provider, or I would have to pay the entire bill if I did not have permission. She also told me that the bronze plan was only good in the county I resided in, Bucks, and was only good in 5 states if I were traveling through (or in) those states. Perhaps things have changed. I will still keep my health care plan as it covers me anywhere I go in the world (first world countries) if I need medical care. I can and have used it in Thailand. Sometimes the caveat is, if it isn't emergency medical care, then I send the bill in to the insurance company and they reimburse me. I just checked that website. My income is much greater than what you entered and there are only 2 in the family. The payments are much lower than it was after obamcare was instituted. I pay a little more than that per month for the health care plan I kept when I retired . Still, the obamacare plan's out of pocket expenses $18,200.00 are much greater that what I have now, by about $6,000.00. But it would only matter if I were to be hospitalized. My wife is still under SS age right now and the copay is only $30.00 a month. The other thing is, she does not need a referral from our doctor to see any medical professional. When the office rep asks if she has a referral from her doctor (which they asked me too) she says no and tells them what health insurance we have, they say ok, you don't need a referral. I also have very good pharmacy coverage. e.g. I picked up a large number of pills one time for my wife. I asked how much and the pharmacist said, fifty cents. I immediately and erroneously exclaimed, what? Per pill? She laughed and said no. Fifty cents for the prescription! I get a 90 day prescription of pills that I have to take 1 daily. Without my pharmacy coverage that would be $270.00, with my coverage it is $32.00. I don't understand why you had higher monthly figures unless they costs are higher in Philadelphia county. The website said the silver plan for the two of us would be $618.00 a month or $7420.00 a year. I pay about $1000.00 more a year. But again, my out of pocket expenses are over $6,000.00 less.
  14. So you meant that you do internets searches. I guess I did misunderstand your comment. You don't have to verify anything that I post. You have every right to disregard any and everything that I post. You have every right to not believe anything that I post. I will not be offended if you don't believe any thing that I post.
  15. You don't do internet searches? Am I miss reading that or not understanding your comment?
  16. Yes. Besides as I wrote, the bronze obamacare plan only covered me in one county in Pennsylvania and only 5 states, but only when I would be traveling. I also checked out their, I think it was the gold plan, it was, if I recall correctly, $2500.00 a month! But the yearly deductible was only still pretty high.
  17. I think you should re read my post. I wrote what I do and suggested you might do the same. I made no demands that you do as I do. I am not going to try and repeat what I found in the past and then post links showing the results of each and every search engine I use. I see posted comments frequently that causes me to use internet search engines to research what others have posted. I don't expect them to furnish a one link. I open several links from different search engines to read them. I sometimes get caught up in the research and will spend as much as an hour or more reading what I find on the web pages. Some of those web pages leads me to do additional searches. I might end up with over 20 tabs open from just one search engine or from multiple searches with one or more search engines. It can be very interesting. I thought it might be interesting for you too!
  18. If I, as a non low income individual, had to pay the government for their low quality health insurance, then I would also be low income after making the payments.
  19. Am I posting lies and conspiracy theories?
  20. You should know the NRA couldn't do that. It would not be the Thai thing to do, some people would say.
  21. I guessed as much based on my research.
  22. No. It has been a while. But you might be able to find out by trying all of the search engines yourself. I do that frequently, just because I have a lot of curiosity about all kinds of things. I don't just depend on other people to find the links for me. There was something in the news I was looking for before I found out about the discrepancies between google and other search engines. I was looking for something that I knew had happened, could not find it with google. Tried a different search engine and it responded with several links. Tried other search engines as well. One had the same results as google did, so I guessed that it was using google as it's search engine, even if it had a different name.
  23. So, people who have a lower income than I can get it with monthly payments of less than $100.00?
  24. Boy howdy, does she look normal or what?
  25. I couldn't edit my post for some reason, even though I tried less than 15 seconds after posting. Wanted to add, that I like google's mapping function and frequently use google earth .
