United Healthcare CEO Assassinated

The idea depends on the expectation that the insurance company will pay out legitimate claims. If they don't you spend money only for a piece of paper to show your status as an insured business.

Sounds great but then you're asking everyone you deal with to uniformly denounce insurance which isn't going to happen.

One time my roof had a bad leak, it turned out it was well past its expiry date and the shingles were toast and then water was getting in and we were having a mold problem. A friend mentioned to have our home insurance look at it and see if they would pay for a new roof, because, hey, what could it hurt, right? After we had the insurance guy come over and look at the roof the insurance company cancelled our policy immediately.

Home insurance should only be used if a tornado wipes out your house. Every time you make a claim, your premiums will go up. Only make a claim when you absolutely have to.

This is great advice and if everyone did this then premiums would go way down. The problem is that far too many people create their own hazards and make dubious claims due to their own poor morals or failures to prevent loss. Not to mention all the people "building their houses on sand" and when bad weather inevitably causes damage they expect the rest of us to cover it. We are subsidizing their foolishness!

America, the country where free speech and gun rights exist in the strongest forms, is also the place with the worst healthcare and worst food systems making it the fattest western nation.

Just a coincidence, nothing else.

I’ve considered this for some time. Europeans get to be healthy because they go to jail for socials posts and are disarmed. Vs the Yanks need poisoned because of their guns and free speech. Also that pesky above replacement fertility.

I seriously do think there’s a chance it might be intentional. Think about the people who talk about overthrowing the government the most and own the guns. All the rednecks are fat and don’t have the energy to get off the couch.

America isn’t above replacement rate. Especially white women. Latina women might be slightly above replacement rate, if that.

The South is definitely obese, and it’s not just because of the high concentration of blacks. I don’t get why so many “Christians” in the South get so fat, and even West Virginia is fat despite being white and conservative.

The Judeo-Masonic Communists got us without a shot fired as they said they would. (The Gun became a Mascot, not a Tool of Revolution). The sneaky-seductive side of Debt Fueled Capitalism got us fat and Happy and eventually isolated looking for that Lucrative Soul Crushing job in the burbs..

This sums up paragraphs of work and philosophy into a few sentences. Beautiful.

High Fructose Corn Syrup should be considered a dangerous addictive drug. And it is in almost everything these days. So, people at the same things their grandparents ate, but now real sugar has been replaced with HFCS and the food is both very unhealthy but also addictive and it is a struggle for many to break free from it.

Life is miserable enough in the USA, that if you include HFCS, along with things like alcohol and tobacco, a super heavy majority of Americans are depressed drug addicts. Getting by, day by day, fueled only by the desire to fulfill this addiction thirst.

I'll agree with this, I've heard people making some really stupid claims like a $1000 repair only for them to then have to pay much more than that in increased premiums. I'm not absolving the insurance companies and I don't think they would pass any savings to us but just saying you have to be smarter than that. I've made two insurance claims in my life, one in my old 30k square foot warehouse where a forklift driver knocked over half my pallet racks causing massive destruction and a second recently when another warehouse completely burned to the ground. I probably could have made a dozen other claims over the years but it wasn't worth my premiums going up. I even had one case where the façade on the front of my old building fell on one of my employees cars during a storm, I probably could have gotten away with that one as a comprehensive "act of god" claim without insurance going up but I didn't risk it.....I paid for the damage to his car out of pocket.

Health insurance is a larger victim to this, healthy people are paying for people who actively destroy their bodies thanks to obama.

It’s true. HFCS has so many more calories than the cane. We use it to add BTUs (energy) to our concoctions at work. Sugar, alcohol, grass, ass, whatever… seems like everyone is just numbing themselves. I think this is why the left is so effective. They offer an alternative, problem is that alternative has yet to produce a non collapsing society

It’s a number of things: fast food, high fructose corn syrup and other additives on many packaged foods, seed oil like canola, flaxseed oil, sunflower oil etc

And cars. People in the south drive everywhere and never exercise

That’s the short list. Oh and of course sugar drinks like soda and other sugar drinks . Just drink water or hot tea (unsweetened).

They love sweet tea in the south and it’s got sugar
