It amazes me how the powers that be throw away so dayum much money!!!
I see stupid stuff every day that makes me wanna go JetBlue!!! For instance: I saw a patient a couple of weeks ago...he's 45, has a 25 year-old wife, six kids, smokes 2 packs of cigarettes a day, DOESN'T WORK and is taking Class II narcotics because his hands hurt.
Before you say "sooooo"....
He's on MEDICAID, and also admits to smoking weed because the narcotics don't help with the pain as much as the weed does. If he has the money to buy weed and smoke 2 packs of cigarettes a day, then why the hell can't he pay for health insurance so I (we) don't have to support his sorry azz. I have a compassionate heart, but stuff like this makes me crazy.

You're heard the term, going postal, right?
It's not where they go, rather, it's what the irate employee did a few weeks ago.
Remember the flight attendant who cussed out an airplane full of passengers, then he popped open the emergency exit, grabbed a couple of beers from the fridge, and slid down the inflatable ramp?? Well, instead of going postal, we refer to is as going JetBlue. :)
The US supplied 2 billion dollars in foreign aid to China last year.Reasoning China is a developing nation and is now enduring a financial down turn .
I don't get it. Doesn't China own billions of dollars of US Treasury notes? Why are we giving them foreign aid? Maybe we don't want them to sell those notes so that we don't go down the crapper (further)?

Your correct we're highly leveraged to China and if they ever called in the notes all we'd own is Kansas .
