That is amazing.

Comrade Rob loves to identify with the downtrodden, so I wonder if he’s going to take up the cause of the untouchables aka the lowest caste in Indian...

Yes, India is so filthy and bug ridden that most food imports I handle from India require agriculture exams by default.

If india is so nice, then why do so many of their people want to move here? I deal with Indians daily for work and company is owned by them. They...

You hate the US so much? THEN LEAVE already and go to some third world shithole you seem to prefer. You love to identify with the downtrodden so...

You are positively luxuriating in the death of the insurance CEO. Your politics fit right in with the Bolsheviks and Castro. Down with the elite!...

I’m half Canadian. Grew up in the Detroit area. Even in the 80s, there were articles about Canadian OBs not taking new patients and women were coming...

This is the guy who is celebrating the United Healthcare CEO’s murder. Comrade Rob would seemingly fit in well with the Bolsheviks or Castro.

Check out the Cash Plus account at Vanguard. That’s what I use.

We know he does.

Frankly, I think Rob’s politics are more akin to Cuba or Russia, but I know at least Russia doesn’t like gays. Not sure about Cuba.

I have big bank checking/savings/credit card. IRA (rollover 401K) and high yield savings with Vanguard. Current job 401K. I closed out my Apple...

I’m going to keep several grand in my big bank savings account. Almost no interest but it’s easily accessible. My emergency fund is a Vanguard Cash...

I have senior friends who have so many physical issues that going to the grocery store just does them in for several days. But they won’t consider...

You might be able to use some of those gift cards for gifts at Christmas or otherwise give away, I assume. Why can’t you use them all?

:(

That's a good discount! Make sure you have extra printer cartridges on hand! I needed some extra cards. Hallmark does some nice budget cards -...

I found it funny because Jesse Jackson and his kids are all corrupt and here they are asking for a pardon. That's what was funny,.

Jesse Jackson wrote Grandpa Joe asking for his son and former daughter in law to be pardoned. Same day Grandpa Joe pardoned Hunter. Jesse Jackson’s...

It seems to be more common for doctors to be employed by big hospital groups, which means they get regular hours (of course, depending on specialty)...

Company was apparently under investigation by the feds.

I’m reading Freedom, Angela Merkel’s autobiography. I’m halfway through. Berlin Wall is down.

I ended up having to work all weekend due to someone else's incompetence. Import department that gets docs from customers and passes them along to my...

Of course Grandpa Joe was going to pardon Hunter.

The too late in the game comment was for Rogar's idea of using a commercial printer.

Rogar, I still do a lot of cards, too. The past 6-7 years I've done a photo card with diving photos, but I didn't do that this year. You might be...

What about just freezing turkey for later? Have to admit one of my favorite things with leftover turkey is hot open face sandwiches with turkey...

I’ve never seen the whole movie for Holiday Inn. Will have to look it up this season.

SQ - so cute! What is kitty's name? Your video link doesn't work.

I've emailed the organizations I do give to (Just a couple) and told them to stop sending me solicitation LETTERS. I don't mind emails, as that's a...

I had a nice time with my goddaughter's family. Two hour drive each way. Left at noon, home at 10pm. Had a nap after dinner on one of the choices in...

My hairdresser and massage therapist get extra large tips. I’ll give some to the local food bank and extra to my church, but that’s it.

Rogar, that sounds lovely. Happy Thanksgiving, all!

I’m all in favor of it. Why should people think they can just walk into the US without consequences? If someone wanted to cross the border going...

What I like about Buy Nothing group is that people will pick up from me. I find it’s not people not bothering to find places to donate, but the...

Under the existing China tariffs from 2018, whole product groups were not subject to the additional China duties. Importers were allowed to apply for...

My poison of choice is regular Coke. It’s cheap, easily available, and my wits aren’t addled.

I had kept some books in case of power outage, but they were taking up too much room. There’s always my kindle, which is much more energy efficient...

The most things I buy from Amazon? Kindle ebooks. Buy ebooks from Apple, too. My magazines/newspapers are all digital.

Yes, that’s what I’m wondering, too. There were plenty of carve outs and exclusions on the first round of China tariffs in 2018-19 b

Lots of people aren’t aware that car parts go back and forth between Michigan and Ontario for different processes done on each side. Not sure how...

Welcome. That’s why I send people to the Economist, NYT, or WSJ. I have a subscription to the first two and some WSJ access through Apple News +...

What impacts? Work will get more interesting? That’s to be sure. Some imports from China are at 7.5% additional duty (on top of standard duty),...

Finally opened a high yield savings account. My big bank savings (where I also have checking and credit card) is 0.01% interest. I have. Vanguard...

This was not directed at anyone here. It’s people I know IRL.

The real crackball conspiracy theories - the moon landing was fake, plus Pearl Harbor and 9/11 were planned and encouraged by the US govt.

IL, you’re in a cute little town, which seems to make a difference. Imagine living 30-60 minutes outside town.

Sorry, I addressed my comment to Tybee, not you. This isn’t directed at you, but I can’t tell you how many people I know who moved from big metro...

TMS, I’m so sorry. Tybee, I loathe when I get the call center for hospital group even when the office is open, too. If something isn’t urgent, I...

Woo hoo! Got a $880 refund from hospital (paid $3500 when registering for surgery in Aug). Card balance down to $2100ish. Yay!

Chicago area has a long history of Spanish speaking immigrants. They’ve been here since the 40s. I used to work with a guy whose grandfather came...

Rob was talking about medical tourism. That’s people going into MX. Doesn’t have a damn thing to do with that.

We were talking about MX. Our meds often come from China or India. For people going into to MX for medical care, no affect.

Canadians are welcome. People via the southern border? Nope.

Tariffs don’t affect medical tourism at all

Dude, I do not care. Mexico was always the red-headed bastard stepchild of NAFTA. Since the USMCA came into effect, I call it the USCMA, even at...
