It's my understanding that there is a lot of controversy in the deaf community surrounding the implants. I am acquaintances with a deaf woman, and she absolutely HATES the thought of the implants. She is of the opinion that she is not broken and doesn't need to be fixed. She has real issues with people who get them or get them for their kids. Apparently, this is a common belief. Is there really that much controversy with these implants? If so, have you run across it at all?

You have to remember that $200K at the end of WW2 was a lot more than $200K now. But I think it is more akin to the current proposals by Dems to increase taxes on the ultra-wealthy. The number I hear thrown around the most is those individuals making more than $10 million a year. I'm all for that, but 90% is a bit much.
