I may lose my house. Hubby has Medicare and supplemental he really didn't want to pay for, but he ended up in an accident, had to be on a life flight, and the total bill was over $1 million. Due to his coverage, we paid $267 (the deductible). Life flight was almost 90K alone. MedAdv plans are junk.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

Donald Trump just ended a rule that required airlines to compensate you for delayed or canceled flights.
Why?
Maybe because the airlines donated big bucks to Trump. Or maybe because the Secretary of Transportation used to be an airline lobbyist.
Either way, you lose.
