Beating Obamacare: Hospitals Across Borders

Posted on by

Beating Obamacare: Hospitals Across Borders

“You are stuck with Obamacare if you need health insurance. If you can pay for treatment, you can get treatment far cheaper with no waiting period. Here’s how.  No rationing. No standing in line.  I like the hospital ship idea. Get on board, sail 200 miles outside the USA, and you get cheap, efficient care.  The envy-driven politicians will scream bloody murder. ‘The rich are getting good care! They can afford it. It’s just not fair!’  This raises some crucial questions.  How are they getting good care? ‘By not having to deal with America-licensed doctors.'”

Chileans will be able to incorporate companies in one day

Posted on by

“Chileans will now be able to create and register a new company in one day, Start-Up Chile reports on its blog. This is the result of a new law voted this week by the Chilean Senate, and which should come into effect by May.  It’s not just about speed, but also about convenience and affordability, with the implementation of a free one-stop online incorporation system. Company creation aside, it also covers structural changes, mergers and closures.”

Liberty Is Making the World Richer. You’re Included.

“In China and India, the pain has been minimal. That is because the economic effects of the earlier systems created such devastation. Think of the phrase, ‘I’ve been down so long, it looks like up to me.’ Think of China today and China in 1973 under Mao. The positive change has been greater than any seen in recorded history, and on a scale that was inconceivable in 1980. Every month, urban living space sufficient to house the population of Philadelphia gets built: 1.5 million people.  When we are talking China and India, we are talking something in the range of 35% of the world’s population moving out of either Communism or Fabian Socialism.”

China’s Smaller Cities Are Home to Growing Middle Class

Posted on by

“51 per cent of China’s population, or 691 million people, are currently living in urban areas. Research suggests that by 2020, some 824 million people will be living in cities, an increase of 188 million. That’s one and a half million new urban residents every month for the rest of this decade. By 2030, according to our analysis, there will be around 270 million more new urban residents in China.  By our calculations, a company had to be in 60 cities to reach 80 percent of the country’s middle class in 2005. Today, they have to be in 340 of them. And by 2020, they will need to be in 550 urban locations to reach that same percentage of the middle class population.”

The Incredible Shrinking Computer

Posted on by

“It just might be that manufacturers of these microdevices are sowing the seeds for the next crop of young hackers (who will increasingly come from the developing world, as all of its nascent talents are released). Traditional PCs may soon be regarded like the mainframes of old, and vast networks of tiny, interconnected devices like this could be the next big leap forward.  Super-cheap chips, ubiquitous wireless, small form factors, open sourcing, and a large and creative community all are coming together to support the ongoing computer revolution, which never stands still.”

Tools of Modern Gunmaking: Plastic and a 3-D Printer

Posted on by

“Inexpensive 3-D printers have grown in popularity in part because they are easy to use. It is not even necessary to know how to create the design files that instruct the device to print bit after bit of plastic to build the object, as there are files for tens of thousands of objects available on the Internet, created by other users and freely shared.  A lower receiver is the only part of an AR-15 that, when bought, requires the filing of federal paperwork. But it is legal to make an AR-15 for personal use as long as there is no intent to sell them. And if the lower receiver is homemade, no paperwork is required.”

Gold nugget weighing 5.5 kg discovered in Australia

“A prospector who found a gold nugget weighing 5.5kg (12lb) in the Australian town of Ballarat is said to be ‘very happy’.  The find, which is 22cm long (8.7in), was handed to gold shop owner Cordell Kent to sell to the highest bidder.  He estimates the gold is worth more than 280,000 Australian dollars ($290,000; £180,000).  The man has decided to stay anonymous, but that has not stopped local residents from speculating on his identity.”
