I just returned from Kiev after my third visit in two years..... heading back again in July.
You might consider a visit at some point to take the opportunity to speak with folks with first-hand knowledge. Russian aggression is very real, particularly to those who have lost relatives in the conflict over the past few years. The debris of a Dutch jetliner still lies in the field, felled by a Russian missile. This is not debatable. | 0 | not toxic |
I think you kind of answered it yourself. If your portfolio generates sufficient income and/or you can avoid dividend cuts you're fine. The subject in the article seemingly generates more than enough income with his core pension and dividends supplementing. But if you're yielding just enough cash flow for your spend and your dividends are cut and it may force you to pull from your capital. If you don't have a large enough bond mix or cash and you're needing to pull from your equity side that just dropped 30%, you risk potential ruin during from sequence of returns early in your retirement. | 0 | not toxic |

To some psychiatrists, if you state that you feel "normal" it is indicative that you have become addicted. This was the response given to an individual who was using opioids to control pain rather than enduring it for the two year wait time for knee surgery.

Donald Trump did for the wrong reasons, what should have been done for reasons he doesn't understand. He essentially based the US withdrawal on a limited view of American economic interests. That was foolish, global warming will seriously affect America''s interests. The problem with Paris, was not that it didn't specifically protect US economic interests, it was that the Paris accord was never going to achieve its objectives of preventing global temperature rise from exceeding specified targets.
The Paris accord is a political document that should have been a technical one... carbon markets and 100 billion Green Climate Funds , increasing by design would have failed without question in a world which moves by the election cycle and non democratic fiat...a world wide technology treaty to address global warming had a chance...the world blew it. | 0 | not toxic |

"Certainly any health care system is excessively burdened by unhealthy people,"
.
NO- it's not "excessively burdened." A pool of policy holders does carry risk of unhealthy people-- when it's me and the pool of other policy holders. -- but with 'Community Rating, 'mandatory coverage,' and Obamacare, it is now the ENTIRE population in the SAME pool and you and I-- that makes your policy sky-rocket because there ARE "excessive" amounts of unhealthy population-- namely, the ENTIRE population.
.
"I would argue that we shouldn't "let them" retain their unhealthy lifestyles." -- I don't follow: does that mean you want to "make them" lead a healthy lifestyle? What- MORE laws and MORE government?
.
Never before have people had access to resources to learn how to lead healthy lives-- they choose this-- they either prioritize a healthy life, or they don't. If they don't, we shouldn't have to pay for it. | 0 | not toxic |

A poster identified as "Greenleaf 2" keeps posting a tautology: namely: "Trump response to NK is bad because Trump is intrinsically bad."
Greenleaf refuses to give any specific examples to support his position.
Greenleaf has not been able to refute a single point provided to show why President Trump has not handled the NK issue well.
Greenleaf is basically a broken dogmatic record which keeps playing the same unconvincing theme over and over and over again.

Liberal thinking? A Liberal refrains from thinking outside the box. While a Conservative would be damned to do so. But, a Socialist...that's what they do. They think outside the box. Let's say we cut the budget to the extreme. We essentially take a pound of flesh from the system. We would still be in a position of exhausting our State's savings. In no time, the savings will be gone. Why? Because the proverbial "shit happens" and we can not predict when it will happen. Wildly unpredictable things may become more usual than we dare to face. That's the conservative logic that oozes from my pores. With no money left in savings, how do we fund the essentials? Answer: Taxes. So, what has been suggested by folks on all sides is that we take a preemptive strategic position to cut and tax...simultaneously. Negotiate to make it so. We see three options.

Assault weapon is a political term.

Much has been noted of the Mini 14; a semi auto rifle that has been around for about 45 years. Traditionally, it was sold with a wooden stock and a 5 round magazine. It looks like a hunting rifle. Numerous companies make aftermarket stocks, magazines and other accessories and it's been noted by adding a folding stock, larger magazine, flash hider it is suddenly an "assault weapon" Such nonsense.
Assault: Verb, an action. To attack someone.
Weapon: Object used to cause physical harm.

Open challenge to Mr. Walter Ritte. Sir, you are a leader and champion of native Hawaiian causes. For that you have earned my respect and admiration. But the indigenous Hawaiian still suffers from unemployment and homelessness. Bill Aila had a chance to make some headway into solving some of these problems while he was the Director of the DLNR. A job given to Mr. Aila as a appeasement for his failed bid to become governor of Hawaii. Aila failed so he was made deputy director at Hawaiian Homes. I would ask that you look into the fact that there are no, zero, native Hawaiians that work as fishermen in the commercial long line industry. Hundreds of jobs catching Hawaiian fish are being taken by person unlawfully fishing. These are jobs that can get Hawaiian back to work immediately. Not a lot of training required and if paid properly can be a living wage. Look into this situation and if appropriate speak this this issue. You voice is clearly heard and respect by many. Thanks. | 0 | not toxic |

-the prevailing assumption is that men and women have virtually identical intellectual profiles
-this simply not the case...many more women than men have intellects that lie in the normal range
[historically, there are very sound biological reasons why]
-the intellectual profile for men has more variability, showing that many more men have above average intellects; and the ratio favouring men increases dramatically with higher values
-adding to that, brighter women [and there are many]are generally not so interested in STEM careers
-as dictated by the politics of our time, there has been a general 'dumbing down' of our society...a post graduate degree is no longer necessarily a true indicator of 'superior' intellectual prowess

A few thoughts: If Darryl Freeman had a gun immediately at his disposal in his van and saw this outraged guy coming at him with intent to possibly harm him, wouldn't showing the weapon in advance be a deterrent to Pahio from trying to beat up Freeman? Unless Freeman waited for the right opportunity to really finish the job. Also, if Freeman did not intend to kill, wouldn't he have aimed at a less vulnerable part of Pahio's body in order to only disable and not kill Pahio? Finally, running over someone who he just shot tells me that there was no remorse for what he just did, but rather a reaffirmation that he really wanted to kill Pahio. The initial shooting may have been in self defense, but driving over the victim's body tells me that it was cold hearted murder. | 0 | not toxic |

Trudeau and the Liberals were in power at the start of the 1984/85 fiscal year and wrote the budget for the year. Mulroney won the election and took office right at the very end of that fiscal year.
Yes, I know the CBC incorrectly attributes this to Mulroney, but you really need to look at who wrote the budget to determine who is most responsible for the deficit, and in the case of the 1984/85 fiscal year that was Pierre Trudeau and the Liberals.
I specifically mention that year because it is the largest post-WWII deficit in Canadian history in terms of percent of GDP at 8.1%. By contrast the $55.6B deficit for the 2009/10 fiscal year, while the largest in nominal dollars, was only 3.5% of GDP. | 0 | not toxic |

It is not the psychiatrists who figure out a potential for violence. It is instead staff who spend time with the patient, watch their behavior and document it. It is generally psychologists who do the report writing after participating in a group of mental health professionals of different types giving input. The symptoms Santiago displayed to the FBI are not indicative of PTSD. They would indicate a psychosis, most likely Schizophrenia. Of course any trauma would exacerbate the development and expression of it. New research shows mental illness is most likely secondary to childhood trauma in most cases. We have no mental health information, the state is protecting the facility which let Santiago go after four days. They will protect the APD, probably hiring their exonerator Greg Russell to write a report. I do agree that psych meds are health harming, in most cases the patient should not have to take them. A tiny percentage are a danger to others. Meds vs prison, which is worse. | 0 | not toxic |

Yes. Darling I hate to tell you this but even under Humane Vitae condoms are allowed for prostitutes. A prostitute does not incur an additional sin by using a condom when having sex with her clients. In fact a sex slave like the woman being helped is not in mortal sin. She has been forced there and has no recourse. These women may not be willing to accept help at first but may accept free condoms. That may be the first step in helping these women. | 0 | not toxic |

As a CIRI shareholder descendant who just turned 40, I find this commentary to echo my own experience. My older cousin is an Doyon shareholder and original enrollee. After he had gained a little experience working, they put him through AVTEC and he went on to have a very successful career working for Doyon Drilling for 20 years, after which he went on to have an even more successful career working for one of the big three.
I approached my (mother's) native corporation when I was 19 years old and was directed to Alaska's People, as CIRI had no in-house avenues for employment with CIRI subsidiaries. Alaska's People told me I had a very nice resume prepared but they didn't really have any connections and wished me the best of luck. CIRI owned 50% of Peak Oilfield Services at that time and just purchased Alaska Interstate Construction from John Ellsworth. These two companies alone employed hundreds every winter.

Hard to keep such an incredible story straight.
In 08/09 you were more or less fully invested and lost 40% of your portfolio. In 2009 working with 60% of your pre melt down value you went more than 50% cash. In essence you now only have 30% of your 2008 portfolio value invested in equities and managed to earn a whopping 78% return. Or more directly you would have had to have earned over 150% return on your stocks in 2009 to make that 78% return.
Even more astounding is that you pulled it all off with GE being the big winner. Odd because GE would have only got you a little over halfway to 150% - assuming you sold at the high..
Nice to hear about the winners - care to share the performance of those that didn't do so well? After all you don't sit on stocks so I assume you sell your losers rather than wait them out. | 0 | not toxic |

The State income tax deduction is a de facto Federal subsidy to high tax states. If your state has a sales tax, and no income tax, you get zero benefit for subsidizing CA and NY. Or Oregon.
The under represented tax by the Feds is SSI. It applies to first $127,200 in wages. 7.65% by employer and 7.65% by employee. After that limit, there is only Medicare tax to pay which is 1.45% by employer and 1.45% by employee. $200,000 and over of salary and wages, and the Medicare by employer stays the same and employee is raised to 2.35%. All of which says the big public employee earners are getting a pay raise when their overtime and/or salaries exceed $127,200. Their taxes go down by 6.2%. Yet the poorest who earn an hour of minimum wage have to pay the SSI and Medicare taxes on their first dollar and all after to $127K. Zero forgiveness. That is regressive.
