the other day i went into burger king and to wash my meal down with i asked for a cup of water [no ice no lid no straw, just a cup of water] and the girl charged me 25 cents. this was not a cup like the small/medium or large ones that come with the value meals, it was one that holds about 6-7 ounces of liquid. i knew i was paying fur the cup, but i always thought water was free.
also in my town
burger king and mcdonalds are now charging for those little sauce packets that used to be free. micky d ones are 15 cents and bk ones are 25 cents. when i order a 4 piece nugget i get one for free, but i like to have 2 ranch sauces...1 for every 2 nuggets. it doesn't seem right for a restaurant to charge for condiments.

mmmmmmmmmmmmm.......anyone hungry?

I pay about .5% of my salary for health insurance. The US has become a nation of whiners lately. Yes, I too get pissed about delays but there's no better system anywhere.

as long as your healthy, that is all you pay. BUT!!! if you take meds, you pay co-pays, and not all drugs are covered, and then there's all other ways you pay. It's not like insurance in the USA means full coverage.

About a year ago i had a cervical spinal fusion in my neck........the bill came to $26,000 after all was said and done. My cost $100.00 so i feel lucky that i have decent medical insurance as many people in the states don't.

wow!!! that sounds pretty serious. if you don't mind me asking....what happened?

I had a compressed/ herniated disc causing moderate pain in my neck and my arm to be numb all the time. The good news is the surgery was a success.........
