If only there was a way that American workers could get better health care, but I can't really think of a way that it could be achieved, other than adopting systems employed by 30 of 31 other developed countries.

How about cutting defense spending by 50%? There's your healthcare.

Alright, I really didn’t want this to go down the road of American politics. We hear enough of that everywhere.

BUT HOW WILL YOU PRETECT THE CAPITOL WITHOUT DoD

Ho much more do you anticipate Laine getting now compared to what he would have gotten on a LTD signed 2 years ago.

I don't think his cap hit will be significantly higher now than it would have been two years ago.
- Leafs43

His trade value would be much higher.
His cap hit will be much higher because he won't sign for 2 years.
Term affects cap. His 2 year deal was actually the highest in terms of cap hit for a deal of that lentgh in history.

My wife said it made my ass look big, but I said female dog, I’m wearing it anyways. I got lots of compliments. I probably should’ve used that money I spent on that for laser tattoo removal surgery but YOLO. Hey, that’s how I got myself into the other situations! Ah what the hell.

Yo! Imagine that in a court of law. Or better yet when you’re in the joint. How’d you get caught?

You didn't answer the question. How much higher will Laine's cap hit be now on a 6-8 year deal compared to anticipated cap hit on a 6-8 year deal two years ago?

I don't think it will be much higher. May even be lower due to pandemic.

This is the Leafs thread. If Canada_Cup doesn't talk politics out of nowhere every 5 posts, the place self destructs.

They are usually good deals. I think I read that it is the currency and the cost of labour.

Most of the wines I have tried from there are "good". They aren't outstanding or unique. The best description I have read is "everyday" wines. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it agrees with my own experience. I do find that inexpensive wines from there really need to breathe or be put in a decanter even. I am not a huge wine knowledge guy though.

No idea what that is.

in Europe, health systems have been going down in quality last 30 years - trying to copy the US 'privatization system'.
good level healthcare is very important - but healthcare has shifted from dealing with patients into dealing with 'clients' - which is not a good development imo.
in other words -- too much healthcare spending is a bad thing for any country.
