I think it's very important to point out that there are Chinese people who have recently had far greater intellectual achievements (as well as business) than you, Reg, HC, I, or almost surely anyone on this board. Yah, they had to do it from a much more difficult position ... all the more reason to be impressed, rather than contemptuous.

Originally posted by regexcellent View PostI went to the ER after seeking advice from my father on whether or not to go to the ER. He said to go to an urgent care center which I ignored because the ER is closer and I didn't think it would take very long.
After waiting a couple hours I went home and went to my university clinic (closed after 8pm) and got treated immediately. Between the two visits it cost ~$35. My foot is now fine. Not sure how that makes me "pampered."
The comment about congestion pricing was mostly a trollish way of saying healthcare should cost money."Aha, you must have supported the Iraq war and wear underpants made out of firearms, just like every other American!" Loinburger
