I don’t understand the rationale here. You have money in a checking account, let’s say $2,000. You write a series of checks, auto-withdraw a few other payments, hit the Starbucks for a few lattes and the total is $3,195. Who needs protection here, the bank or the consumer who lost track of their spending?

I really have no skin in this game, but I first heard about this when one of my Uncle’s came across the border for a private pay surgical procedure on his heart. His perspective was that due to extreme delays in treatment, he would be dead before his needs were addressed. To be fair, that was quite a few years ago and perhaps it’s gotten way better. I don’t think so, but maybe. E https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/article/i-had-started-saying-goodbye-why-some-canadians-go-abroad-for-medical-care/ According to the Canadian Medical Association, non-emergency surgeries that can be scheduled in advance, like hip, knee and cataract procedures, are being delayed, while a growing number of Canadians — now more than 6.5 million — lack access to a family doctor altogether. ‘I had to go abroad to save my life’ Celyn Harding-Jones, a Montrealer, says she was forced to look outside the country after living with a rare brain tumour for 20 years. “I had to go abroad to save my life,” she said in an email to CTVNews.ca. “I could not find one neurosurgeon in Canada who had any experience with this type of tumour or who was willing to operate.” “By the time I was 35, I had drop attacks and could barely care for my children,” she said, adding “the process to ask for provincial health boards for out of province care are not transparent, and not designed to be completed by people who are seriously sick.” https://thehealthinsider.ca/crossing-borders-for-care-the-rise-of-medical-tourism-for-canadians/#:~:text=Patients Leaving the Country&text=From 2017 to 2021%2C Canadians,jump over the previous years. Canadians seeking medical care abroad are a lot more measurable and are engaging in medical tourism in what is likely much higher numbers than reported. From 2017 to 2021, Canadians spent as much as $2.3 billion on out-of-country health care. According to reports published by the Fraser Institute, over 50,000 Canadians left the country in 2022 and that was a big jump over the previous years. The numbers continue to climb dramatically.

We are asking the wrong question. The real question is how do Kincaid's calves compare to Deone Walkers calves?

The Chiefs are a disgusting team

Broncos @ Chiefs Christmas Day released Hopefully this means we won't be playing Christmas Day at home like some rumors. I don't think they would put two heavy hitter AFC teams on the same day, I feel like they would want to diversify it with NFC action. I mean it could be Bills Eagles, but that's a Marquee matchup and doesn't need to be on a holiday like Christmas to be a mega draw for ratings, feels like a waste on a day like that where you already have a captive audience.

that's super impressive. Well there's a laundry list of stats we been dominant at last 5 years, including rhe biggest chokers in January

Sorry, off topic, but the thought made me chuckle: My wife’s parents were very “old country”. Other than a couple times on the golf course, and eventually in the hospital, I never saw her father not wearing a tie. English was her mother’s third language (after Arabic and French) and she spoke in a very formal way. It’s what she was taught in boarding school in Lebanon, not growing up in the Bronx. Very different. We moved to Sarasota, FL in 1993, known for Siesta Key beach. Naturally, we wanted to take my MIL to all the great things in town when she came to visit. The opera house was great, but I had to tap the brakes when the wife wanted to show her the beach. Her dad was always in a tie, and her mom was ALWAYS in high heels. I asked my wife how she saw that going, and we just cruised thru the parking lot.

There's a number of issues with this train of thought. We only keep 3 RB's on the 53. Between Cook, Davis, and Johnson - that's the 3. None of them are being cut. So whomever you Drafted would have to be cut. If you take someone in the 4th, you're most likely not getting them back on the Practice Squad if you cut them. You're playing with fire cutting anyone before Round 6. Even if you could get them back then, they could and most likely would be poached at some point during the season. You don't put that kind of investment into a player you're not going to roster. There was no need to do it now. We have our RB's this year. You're wasting a pick unless you're moving on from one of the three and that's not something they were going to do. You worry about replacing Cook next year, if you have to. And preferably with a Draft prospect (or veteran) with a greater pedigree than you're going to find with a mid to late 4th Round Pick.

How will Trump’s tax INCREASE affect you?
Joe Ferguson forever replied to BillStime's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5296015-gop-tax-bill-salt-trump-priorities/ Critics of the GOP tax framework say it’s another example of trickle-down economics, meaning tax advantages for businesses, investors and managers, the benefits of which may or may not “trickle down” to workers and consumers. “So far this costly bill appears to double down on trickle down, with huge tax cuts that will further enrich the rich and not much for the rest of us,” Amy Hanauer, director of the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, said in a statement in response to Friday’s version of the bill. The Republican tax bill reinstates a number of business provisions from the 2017 Trump tax cuts that had already expired and that businesses had been hoping would be renewed in previous years. These include immediate research and development expensing, bonus depreciation, and interest deductibility, along with the amped pass-through deduction and key elements of the international tax regime, which has competing initiatives at both the United Nations and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development. The Republican tax plan leaves in place the so-called carried interest loophole that allows the incomes of hedge fund and private equity manager to be taxed at preferential capital gains rates as opposed to regular income tax rates. Trump has criticized the loophole in the past but appears to have left it alone. -
