I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, uh, people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future [for our children].

Uhh, RAND also helped bring us things like the space shuttle, most of our social welfare programs, and the studies that were some of the basis for the ACA, like the RAND Health Insurance Experiment. There is probably no single American organization more qualified to speak on the topic than RAND, with their decades of actual peer-reviewed research. Also, fuck off.

Fellow 911 dispatcher here. If you call 911, the police are coming to your location, no matter what. Even if you just hang up. It's pointless to tell us everything is fine, everyone who doesn't want the cops to come tells us everything is fine. We will find out if everything is fine when we appear in your doorway in a few blinks of an eye.

I used to work at the Kinko's down the street from Lambeau in Green Bay. I was always so excited when you guys would come in and have us do your laminated "cheat sheets" for the cameramen that had the pictures of all the players/coaches on them so they could find them in the crowd. The producer we always saw (Mark?) was always very nice and would sometimes bring us MNF goodies.

What about non-profits with thousands of employees that may not see a tax advantage to continuing to provide health insurance? Do you expect these types of employers to drop insurance benefits?
