  1. “Aren’t you glad that the resident “robo-Republican” is back?;-)”

    Yes, I am glad you are back! [Wish you weren’t quite so robo-republican, but we can’t have everything, now can we?! ; ) ]

    How am I distorting your argument that medical premiums should be similar to car insurance!!! I am not a car!!

    You’re treading into a very delicate area with this benson. Who will be the judge? As it stands now, many people do not have access to good health care, and good preventative health care is important and might relieve some of the strain. Good access to medical services, and low co-pay and low premiums are the only way to ensure that people get the medical care early and more often than not. What if the doctor found out that I ate a hot dog last Thursday, are they going to report me to someone? I hear they’re salty, have cancer causing agents in them, and are fatty. If I gain 50 lbs. because I’m working overtime and don’t have time to eat right when I’m traveling excessively on business and my grandfather had diabetes is my premium going up?

    You can find lots of one bedrooms in Stuyvesant heights for $1,100-1,200. It’s 25 minutes to 34th street on the A train from utica Ave stop.

  3. Hi
    I’ve been lurking for a few on this site and I’m not sure if this is the right spot for this question, but here goes.

    I’m selling my apartment and looking to rent a one bedroom in Brooklyn for about $1,000 – $1,200/month. I’m very flexible about neighborhoods, but would want to be in a neighborhood with no more than a 45 minute commute to midtown.
    Can I find anything in my price range? And which neighborhoods should I look in?
    Thanks for any info.

  4. “Benson, why are you picking on Michael Jackson? MILLIONS of people have had elective surgery, you know.”

    ENY;

    Not trying to pick on MJ, just used him since he’s in the news. Probably insensitive of me, given his passing.

    I wasn’t here when MJ passed away, so I’ll give my belated comment on the subject: I find it tragic when brilliant, gifted people like MJ and Elvis self-destruct.
