I am all about spewing out your anger and venom in the form of subjective negativity about whatever topic you desire (I think it is quite healthy to externalize it that way) but it was an eye opener to see how passionate some folks get about topics that they don't know much about- I fear that the uninitiated might be misinformed by it.
When I initially came onto Patrick.net it was to learn about the bear market, and I think it did it's job. I knew really nothing, and had bought a house at the peak. Mostly through the links, and some of the posts, I gained a decent understanding of the housing market. I can now smell the trolls and uneducated with regards to housing topics. Obviously I can also recognize those who are speaking about healthcare and not making any sense.
Well said, Patrick.net was correct 5 years ago but has become crazy negative rants by the banking guy and others like him.
I wonder what he does for work (perhaps unemployed due to personality issues?)

I own a business. You peasants always concern yourself with other people's employement or lack of. Worry about yourself.
And giving personal insults doesn't do nothing except show you can't give a rebuttal to someone's opinions.

No. Just reality.

So I made an appointment for a physical exam because I haven't been to a doctor in more than 5 years, and I had a bunch of accumulated worries.
I went in for my physical exam, knowing that it would be covered by my insurance, and when the doctor asked me about any issues I was having, and I recited my list: funny mole, can't digest gluten, some asthma, etc. So he said we should go over the list and do the rest of the physical at a later date. I agreed.
Doh! That was a $329 mistake! He re-coded the visit as "office medical" on the spot on instead of the physical exam I signed up for. So now the insurance won't cover it.
Screwed again, partly by my own stupidity for not picking up on the billing code change right away.
I will never visit any doctor again, ever, unless they tell me exactly and in advance what everything will cost. It would be much more pleasant to be dead than to get another surprise bill.
