That would work with me lol

If you are poor enough you can qualify for Medicaid (MediCal in California) which is a sort of limited health insurance. This is life saving for poorer families and most of the time completely covers birth costs. After birth in some states they even offer follow up plans from nurses for assistance with food and meal plans for babies and toddlers.

Even if you don't qualify you can apply for financial aid which I believe is required to be offered in every public hospital even to people whether citizens or not. If not you can just take on the debt and not pay, which destroys your credit score but after long enough you might be offered a favorable financing or a discount... Only after being harassed by collections for months if not years.

That's the genius of proprietary software business models, also adobe is guilty of this, let people pirate your software so they dominate using your software. Once their skills are built on it once they get to the workforce they won't even question using a libre alternative. In the end they manage to dominate the market

My laptop was bundled with McAffee's garbage software, their uninstaller DOES NOT work. They have a tool to get rid of their software on their website but the links were down and when I finally downloaded it, it didn't fully uninstall it. Revo uninstaller wasn't able to get rid of it either, it's like a rootkit! I was only able to get rid of it by contacting McAffee and talking to their tech support

death of civilians is never good news, but if russia doesn't want its citizens to be at risk then they shouldnt invade other countries

I used to not like music for a long time because my family was weirdly annoying about music. They made it uncomfortable to want to listen to it, making me feel embarrassed about it.

I would definitely roll in my sleep and fall to my death

I feel like a pop would be more extreme?

You lump us with fascists. "Scratch a liberal a fascist bleeds" has to be one of the most ridiculous things ever said. We're not your enemies! Democratic socialists are in the Democrat party in America. Social Liberals and Social Democrats have much more in common than Social Liberals and Conservatives. In Europe Liberals and moderate socialists form parliamentary coalitions
