fatandfast I spent a year at UMass without any health insurance and thank whatever to this day that I didn't get seriously ill/run over as I'd be paying for it now.

The ridiculous thing is that, proportionally, I doubt I pay more in total tax (which pays for all kinds of things, not just the NHS) than I would be paying in health insurance in the US. This is the kind of thing the NHS does for the benefit of all:

I just wonder whether Armstrong needs to raise awareness in countries with a centralised health care system (e.g. most of europe) that has government funding to raise awareness (let alone indigenous cancer charities doing similar work)?

The dollar goes a lot further in TX than it does in California. For the amount I paid for my house in TX I can't even get a studio sized condo here in San Francisco.

And frankly I'd trade my cardboard box in SF for LA's house.

USP, Disco, Nike, Trek, Giro, Oakley, etc. all paid for that house.

Add to that SCA, the sweetest payday of all. Flaunt it LA. You deserve it.
