The 600 pound gorilla in that room is health insurance.


Are you starvin" him, I thought it used to be an 800 LB gorilla? laugh

But yes, I hear stories of people paying $1000 to $2000 per month for health insurance. I also wonder how many $50,000 household incomes spend
$3000 per year on cigarettes, more than that per year on beer, whiskey, etc, and perhaps an even $1000 per month on pot, coke, crystal, or any number of other drugs. Choices!!
