@MrsMarzuolo@TomFitton That's what people don't understand. If you're not covered by your employer or I'd you're self employed premiums consume almost your entire income if you have a family. I think most medical costs should be affordable out of pocket. Insurance should be for catastrophic care.
@sugarybonus@FischerKing64 Jesus was was referencing the universal "catholic" church, the body of believers, the bride of Christ, not any specific denomination. The Protestant Reformation would not have been necessary if the RCC was not broken. Men are fallen, so is everything they build.
@Gormogons No kidding. Some women put way too much importance on wedding details. I was married at a courthouse 25 years ago, and my parents ordered the cake from the local grocery store. The wedding is for one day. Your marriage is supposed to be for a lifetime.
@owl_elc More and more kids in our homeschooling community are pursuing alternatives to college, but if someone really wants to be a doctor, there are currently no alternatives. How do we divorce certification from the colleges?
@SaraGonzalesTX If someone breaks into your house and takes over one of the bedrooms but redecorates and pays the water bill should you still kick them out?
@FedUpKentuckian @KurtSchlichter I do think that something is going on with the vaccines but not all autistic people are vaccine injured. We have 3 kids on the spectrum and family members in older generations that are autistic. Genes do play a role, particularly in the non regressive forms.
@Pas_De_Ce_M0nde @ConceptualJames The first time I heard talk about the evils of classical liberalism it was out of the mouth of a Catholic. Protestants and Catholics seem to be equally represented on the Woke Right.
@TKratman@Gormogons I think the biggest difference between the U.S and the majority of other western nations is that we fought a war of independence, and that origin story infuses our culture so thoroughly that attempts to snuff out the flames of freedom only have the effect of stoking the fire.
@Theo_TJ_Jordan At this point, I have a hard time understanding how anyone can keep their kids in public schools. I know it's a huge financial sacrifice. Sometimes it means moving somewhere with a lower cost of living, downsizing, and buying things used, but look at the alternative.
@owl_elc I always wanted to be a teacher, but I was among the few people in the education department that came from the top of my high school class. Most students did the bare minimum to get by. I ultimately couldn't stomach teaching in the public schools, but I love homeschoolers.
@RebelNewsOnline That's fine with me, since the U.S is a republic. I want nothing to do with a corrupt money laundering hub on the other side of the world. You "democracies" can fight with your own treasure and lives.
@lone_rides Basically, he was paying a prostitute by buying her dinner and got mad when one date didn't play along, like it was a violation of some unspoken contract. This is the natural consequence of radical feminism and the free love movement, the commodification of women.
@JackPosobiec I'm more impressed that Trump will be attending the cabinet meeting since I understand that his predecessor could never find the time to meet with his cabinet.
@ClotFreeFrog@lsferguson Well, the founders set up a situation where senators were elected by the state legislators, legislators with higher turnover rates who are closer to the people they represent. Now, senatorial elections are high jacked by out of state interests and primaries are almost ueseless.
@CarmineSabia Also, on the tariff front. I also assumed the border with Canada was relatively secure until recently. I read a very eye opening post about deregulation of trucking schools and how new companies and almost no inspections are being done. More and more drugs are coming in.
