Idaho State University may buy a private med school: What would it mean for Idaho's doctor shortage?
Idaho State University appears to be getting more serious about buying the Idaho College of Osteopathic Medicine in Meridian—at least, serious enough to spend $100,000 on a study that could help make the case for a purchase.

Hundreds of consumers reached out to their congressional representatives for help in the past 12 months.
“I have been unable to pay my rent, utilities, personal bills, student loans, or my credit card. I have been unable to buy groceries or put gas in my car,” wrote a New Yorker, who contacted Rep. Nicole Malliotakis’ office.

Remember: reusing, giving away or selling used stuff is a crime against the economy. You should dispose of them, so that others will have the opportunity to buy new stuff. This way, you create workplaces in so many areas: collecting, processing and storing garbage, mining for resources, processing them, production; and of course transport, marketing, sales. Isn't capitalism magnificent?

Encountering a lot of the scam where I buy something in the UK and it recognizes my US credit card and charges me in dollars instead of pounds. With a currency conversion fee, often 3% or more. I do not have the option to prevent this. Mostly this is at POS terminals in restaurants, etc.
