Sadly, only the people in despair understand the quagmire of American medicine. You can be the best working Joe around, but you're one cancer diagnosis away from going over a hundred grand in debt.

Searcy Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 You can be the best working Joe around, but you're one cancer diagnosis away from going over a hundred grand in debt. Same can be said for home of auto insurance. One flood or crash could find you a hundred grand in debt. Some how people magically figure out how to pay those on their own.

stein Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 The term is "unsurance"...you pay for it, and it covers a lot of stuff, but it doesn't cover you from going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But often times, when a man owes and CAN'T pay, that breaks a man down. We got to remember those that actually do loose everything in this economy, same as those who have found a way. And keep each others spirit going, if we can find a way to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily my house is on a hill, and I don't think a car crash would put you 100Gs back, unless you wrecked you Lamborghini again Or if you were talking about crashing your house... Dafuq?

Dafuq? That's because you're young and don't understand liability lawsuits yet. Oh, and my house is on a hill too. The Army Corp of Engineers still figured out how to flood it. $84,000 worth of damage in just a few hours. It's almost back to normal though.

It's amazing that anywhere in the country, earthquake and floods are not covered by insurance, and those are the 2 beyond anyones control. You can buy extra flood insurance (unless you live in a flood zone) and earthquake (unless you live in an earthquake zone). On the mortgage, you might pay mortgage insurance to cover the loan. If the loan defaults, THEY get the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, I know the liability of lawsuits, and how to tell if someone is at fault, (right of way, etc) My mom is a school bus driver and points this stuff out to me all the time. I thought you were talking car damage alone, my bad inference skills. And they purposefully flooded it. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanMan Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 They didn't purposely flood anything. They failed to take action quickly enough which caused massive flooding. Nissan and Gibson are both suing them for damages caused by their negligence. I'd expect more lawsuits to follow should these prove successful.

stein Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Ahh, I know the liability of lawsuits, and how to tell if someone is at fault, (right of way, etc) Lol..not "liability of lawsuits"...."Liability lawsuits". If your name is attached to a "liability lawsuit", you could not be at fault, or not have done anything wrong, but you are RESPONSIBLE according to a court. For example...a pedestrian jumps in front of your car. Police come, fill out a report, you exchange information, and the guy goes to the hospital. The hospital ask for insurance, and your insurance company gets listed as one of them. Police report comes back saying it was his fault, so your insurance refuses to pay. The hospital then automatically names you on the bill, and may even proceed to court without even looking into it. Or..say something IS your fault (no big deal, it happens), but the guy wants to sue for "extra" damages or sues for things the insurance company does not want to pay. They can come after you AT THE SAME TIME as they do all insurance companies involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happened to a few people in my family. (Like a woman who stopped short on my grandma and tried to sue her for it, or the woman who ran a light and hit my mom and tried to blame her. Both lost the cases, and since my mom and grandma are fairly nice people, they just made them pay for the damages and nothing more.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmer Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 The nail was crushed, high blood pressure at that spot can be painfull. What a real dokter does is the same. Make a hole in it so the pressure is of. If that needle was sterile (and I thing it was, it looked very hot) it was the best way to deal with that. Only make sure not pin the hand on the table of course. I hammered on my finger when I was a kid and my father did just the same, let the pressure of. No big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually they made a conscious decision to flood my area in order to reduce more expensive damages in down town Nashville. My house flooded exactly 2 years ago today.

EVOL! Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think Nissan and Gibson are SOL because the law states that the Army Corp. of Engineers cannot be held at fault, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of amazing that such an important entity can function with near zero risk. *I need to see that film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
