Needs to be higher up.

Health Insurance does not include vision, dental, or mental health. In other words, Healthcare does not include your head.

Yup, record profits for companies and the average person can barley afford their groceries.

Don't buy the damned car? When the dealers lots are full of 2 year old inventory it gets the attention of the manufacturers.

I pay with my bank account and not my debit card, to avoid this type of fee.

If I were to win/receive a lot of money, I'd buy up low cost property. This would be refurbished into good housing for people on low incomes. The aim would be to provide good quality, stable homes for people who are normally priced out of the market. If a profit was possible, it would be used to buy more property, and help people enter an agreement where they can start building equity.

The HP subscription ink in the biggest scam ever.

We don't own anything Apple in our household

The history of tipping is pretty interesting. Totally scummy, but interesting.

My company charges our customers monthly because we pay for servers to store their data. We also provide security and redundancy services. We offer to sell our software as-is without support - only one customer has ever done that.

I should have rented my boobs and sold my eggs. I'd have a much bigger TV.

A thief has stolen $20,000 worth of university textbooks. He was caught and forced to return all three of them.

Oppressing women and the poor for millennia, organized religions have to be the longest running scam on the planet, likely because they are the most lucrative.

Overdraft fee = bad. Overdraft beer = good.

Can't wait to see Trump in court in 2025-26 for using his 2024 campaign money for legal fees. I'll eat a dirty shoe if I'm wrong.

It wasn't always this way. It seems "greed" was promulgated in the '70's, via tax breaks, etc, to the point that business owners and corporations are no longer morally obligated to share the spoils.

Amen!

No, not 'much' cheaper. The cost of making physical copies of the games is not great. The costs are incurred in paying for the people who make them, the advertising etc.

(In the US) I work and have decent insurance. Got a nose bleed my local clinic couldn't stop. Went to the ER - Nearly $5k (of which I had to pay nearly $1500). They used some name-brand nose--spray (an anti-coagulant), and when that didn't work, inserted an inflatable tampon (that fell out 2 hours later). Why so high? Apparently, while I was bent over bleeding into a bedpan, a "specialist" literally stuck his head in the door to ask how it was going.

I've read there is a push in Congress to remove medical debt from credit scores. Small step in the right direction.

Any warranty that costs money. The price of the product should be our only cost. Poor quality should not be rewarded by enabling manufacturers to charge more to repair or replace the item. Not long ago you could simply return them for a refund.

CABLE COMPANIES. Why does my bill go up $5.00 every 3 months for a buried cable noone has serviced since 2003??

" So you're telling me there's a chance".

Special Interest groups, lobbyists, gerrymandering, electoral college, or otherwise over-riding the will of the people.

But it's still worth doing it. Not voting isn't a tool of resistance, but a tool of surrender.

I like the supplement industry. People think it's a bunch of bogus, but these products can/do have noticable effects and daily limits. If you don't believe me, give Passionflower a try.

That's not a scam, it's good planning, you can have a family trust for a little nest egg too, doesn't have to be alot.

Not quite. There was a cartel formed to standardise light bulbs, including their lifespan, but the longer-lasting bulbs at the time were undesirable because of lower efficiency (as in light output per power input) and greater heat output, so it wasn't as simple as this makes out.

The FDIC is supposed to protect your bank account from this, make sure your bank is FDIC insured.
