Over 50% of Americans are alredy in a single payer system. For those advocating single payer, why didn't we just expand the existing systems?
If single payer is more efficient and cost effective, and provides excellent care, why start over with another complex program to ultimately reach the same conclusion?
You need to brush up on your accounting. Profit is not overhead, it is what's left over after overhead. And it is far from primary. Out of every dollar of sales,how many dimes, nickels or pennies is profit?

VAT is essentially a sales tax. The difference being, in the US we only pay the tax when the goods or services are delivered to the end user. VAT stands for value added tax, which means taxes are levied at each stage of the production process, based on the "value added" at that step
Sales taxes are regressive, meaning they have a cost disproportionate to income. The poor, who pay no income tax, while they would certainly pay more with a sales tax. You may misunderstand the definition of regressive.
Why do people insist on putting meaningless numbers in their posts? Is $4.5 million supposed to initiate some outrage? Since we don't know if its' one person or a thousand or what their salaries are, who knows. I supose it's somehow ment to imply that they are part of the evil 1%. Let's look at that from the perspective of someone making $10 an hour or roughly $20,000 per year. Dpending on your specialty you probably make somewhere between 6 and 15 times that amount. Some may consider those numbers to be obscene.
Perhaps you should look at your own practice. It certainly wouldn't hurt to to cut your salary. Or you could quit doing business with those evil, evil insurance companies. Why don't you just take Medicade patients? I'm sure those reimbursement rates will keep your practice humming.
You might want to look at the impact of higher deductibles on overall healhcare costs. It seems when you are responsible for your own expenses you are far more judicious than when it is your money. I remember my days in the Air Force and the Doctors hated to work weekends. Mothers would get bored and bring their kids for a runny nose. They were certain even if they charged a couple of dollars, people would quit coming.
Do you have a point here?
Not necessarily. Medicare is single payer. Obama is taking away the option to buy comprehensive insurance. Also he is taking prentitive medicine out of Medicare so he can put it in Obamacare
Medicare Advantage is today a part of Medicare. Taking away MA is a reduction in services. If it's gone it's a cut. The fact that you believe it is some sort of subsidy to insurance companies is totally ilrellevant. It's merely a distraction. However you try to justify it, a cut is still a cut.
Only about $200 billion.
I wan't aware the Rebuplicans were pandering to the progressives.
Actually, neither is correct. They prefer to be identified by their country of origin.
If you can grow the economy through economic illusion, Obama is missing the boat on bringing back the economy.
BTW. what the hell is economic illusion?
So when did the Democrats take over the House and Senate? January 2007. Previous quarters growth was 3.5%. Unemployment was 4.6%. Who proposed the budgets and programs that raised the deficit and debf in 2008 and 2009?
You are absolutely correct. Austerity comes in two forms decreased spending or tax increases. Look out for Taxaggedon on December 31.
Oh I got it. Like the money for green energy and ethanol.

So I was intrigued when I was contacted by Benji Frank---the eyewear company has a "Try 5 Program" where they send you five pairs of your choosing (for free) to try on in the comfort of your own home. When you've made your selection, you simply send back the package (free of charge) and they send you back the brand new pair you've selected. Pretty convenient, especially if you prefer to shop online but don't want to risk ordering sunglasses (or glasses) that won't suit your face shape.
I picked out the Arthur sunglasses in tortoise. I currently own two pairs of sunglasses (one of those has my prescription) and the Arthur frame was so different from my other two pairs that I was excited to add them to my collection.
FTC disclaimer: I was provided with these sunglasses for review. I am not being compensated to write this post.

Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza, after-shave, after-shave lotion, details, Fragrance, men's fragrance, new for 2014
If you're a fan of Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza (and I can't imagine why you wouldn't be) you'll be pleased to know that two brand new ancillaries have been added to the existing range, in the shape of an After-Shave Balm and an After-Shave Lotion. Both, of course, are fragranced with the woody and ambery notes that make Essenza a deliciously warm, creamy, night-time version of the original Acqua di Parma Colonia fragrance. Not so much essenza as essential I'd say.

This dissertation addresses competition in service industries. Increasingly, firms in service industries differentiate themselves on the basis of the waiting time their customers experience, along with their price levels and other service attributes (location, quality of service etc.). The dependence of waiting times on demand volumes and capacity levels, in turn, depends in a fundamental way on the operational characteristics of the service facilities, as queueing theory has taught us.
When customers select a specific firm, the selection process amounts to a tradeoff among three categories of service attributes: (1) the price; (2) the waiting time standard; (3) all other attributes. In the second chapter of this dissertation entitled 'Competition in Service Industries', we analyze a general market for an industry of competing service providers. Other than through intrinsic and unalterable service characteristics, firms differentiate themselves in the market in terms of their price levels and the waiting time their customers experience. We first characterize the equilibrium behavior in three competition models: Simultaneous Competition, where firms select their prices and service levels simultaneously, Price First, where firms first select their prices, and then their service levels (after observing the pricing decisions made by the rest of the firms), and Service Level First, where the order of the decisions is reversed. We then rank and compare the resulting prices and service levels generated by each of the three competition models.
In the third chapter of this dissertation entitled 'Service Competition with General Queueing Facilities', we investigate how a service industry's competitive behavior depends on the characteristics of the service providers' queueing systems. We provide a unifying approach to investigate various standard single stage systems covering the spectrum from M/M/1 to general G/GI/s systems, along with open Jackson networks to represent multistage service systems.

We stumbled across the work of a young French photographer, Gregory Blake, who despite his shots of beautiful females and well executed craftsmanship, remains a bit of a mystery.
He's a photographer who lives in Paris. His work resembles the modern day French fashion photography version of Banksy. But enough about the photographer. The girls he shoots in these pictures are absolutely stunning.

Things I liked:The silencer adds some nice design, and the extras that come with the gun are nice.
Things I would have changed:I would make the silencer a bit heavier and the gun a bit more weighted because it's light compared to the weight of the slide pull.
What others should know:Great buy! You'll have fun!
Things I liked:Nice weight, pretty accurate,comes with 800 BBs and an extra clip, when you cock it back with no BBs in the clip the slide stays back until you reload just like a real gun.
Things I would have changed:Make it easier to put safe on
What others should know:I ordered this and the orange tip was broken off inside of the silencer when I received it in the mail but Pyramydair was so helpful that they got me a new one only 2 days later and didn't make me return the broken one. 5 star product and 5 star service

Hello, everyone! This is Marc Willow.
Welcome to another Monday Moment!
Today is not gonna be a text post, still I'm very proud of this one.
|Cover of Judy Garland
Here's the Judy Garland Christmas Special, aired by CBS on December 6th 1963. For those of you, who don't know, I will provide you with a little side information.
Judy Garland, best known for her role as Dorothy in "The Wizard of Oz" (1939), found herself eith huge financial problems in the beginning of the 1960s, because she failed to pay taxes in the years of 1952 and 1953. When CBS approached her to do a weekly show titled "The Judy Garland Show" she saw this as an opportunity to pull herself out of this financial crisis and she agreed to do it. (In the 50s she had been very clear about never wanting to do a weekly television show, so the fact that she agreed doing that really highlights her precarious situation).
|The Judy Garland Show (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
On December 6th 1963 CBS aired the Christmas Special episode featuring her children Liza Minelli (yes, she is actually her daughter!) and Lorna and Joey Luft (her children emerged from her second marriage) along with many other guest stars.
The show (in black and white) has so much Old Hollywood charme, it is so lovely to watch this!
I suggest you take yourself an hour off, snuggle up with your blanket and cuddle with dog/pillow (since we are forever alone) and enjoy this little gem.
What a joy to watch!
Happy holidays!

Grey's Anatomy
Grey's Anatomy Season 9, Episode 19 Sneak Peek: Meredith Takes Sarah Chalke's Son's Case to Heart
There are some cases that even the talented Grey's Anatomy doctors can't solve, and in Season 9, Episode 19: "Can't Fight This Feeling," one little boy's mysterious illness has everyone stumped.
Though it would typically be a peds case, a surprising doc steps up and takes the case to heart: Meredith Grey. Yes, you read that right — Mer is not dark and twisty anymore, instead letting her pregnancy hormones (and general motherly instincts) take over when guest star Sarah Chalke questions all the things that could be wrong with her son.
In the sneak peek above, Sarah says, "I know this must be so annoying for you, I mean, I know I know nothing, but I did all this research," and Meredith quickly responds, "No, not at all. Let's go through it, please."
Meredith proceeds to listen and debunk all of the conditions thrown at her — something we saw Cristina and Alex do for her last week — including a big one: Lupus.
"Are you sure it's not Lupus?" Sarah asks, to which Mer responds, "He doesn't fit the criteria and the rash was quite different." Plus, as we know from House, it's never Lupus.
After running through a few conditions, the most surprising conversation happens. "I know that you're a surgeon and you don't normally handle cases like this..." Sarah starts to say, but Meredith has a quick reaction for that, too: "I own the hospital and I can do whatever I want. I want to do some more tests."
Get it, Meredith! Are you surprised that she's taking this case so personally? Watch the clip, and then sound off below.
Catch the next new episode of Grey's Anatomy on Thursday, March 28, 2013, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.

Add the bouquet garni, cover the casserole and cook in the oven for 2 hours.

Top 10 Quotes From Revenge Season 2, Episode 9 "Revelations": "Nobody Plays Dirtier Than The Graysons"
Revenge's winter finale is over, as is our reason for waking up in the morning.

Sigh, their relationship is so romantic!
7. Nolan plots and schemes: "It's much easier to destroy a castle from inside its walls."
Basically, he's a Trojan Man.

3. Emily defends her revengenda: "I'm not destroying lives, Amanda, I'm righting wrongs."
And looking fabulous while doing so.
2. Nolan hates on Daniel: "I can't say you didn't warn me about that tricky little bastard. Danny Boy really learned how to play dirty."
Emily: "It's in his DNA."
Excuse you guys, the only thing coursing through Daniel's DNA is poetry.
1. Nolan eye-rolls at Aiden: "Just get your board seat back so I can pull the ripcord on my golden parachute."

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
In Preparing CMS Web Graphics and Layouts Using Open-Source Tools, Jen Kramer shows how developers and graphic designers can collaborate to create a great site design that integrates with a content management system (CMS) like WordPress, Drupal, or Joomla!, all using open-source software. This workflow is based on two existing open-source design tools, KompoZer and GIMP. Jen shows how to modify web graphics and create slices with GIMP, and then place these in an HTML page integrated with CSS in KompoZer. Along the way, she discusses web design best practices and special challenges that might arise when designing for CMS software. Exercise files are included with this course.
GIMP, like many open source programs, offers several extensions to its program to add additional functionality. In GIMP these extensions are called plug-ins and you can find them on the GIMP website under the Plugin Registry. This is the page that describes all of the registered plug-ins for GIMP. These plug-ins are written by third- party developers who've decided to add some additional functionality to GIMP that they were looking for. One of the things you may wish to add to GIMP is a better Save for Web function with more control over how exactly the image is being saved.
Let's see if such a plug-in is available. If we type in the keyword search save for web and click the Search button, we'll come up with a result that looks great called Save for Web. Save for Web will give you an interface that's more similar to Photoshop Save for Web interface. Note, however, that this particular extension is available for Windows here or it's available as a .tar.bz2 file, which you can install on Linux or for the Mac.
Mac installation may be a little bit more difficult and you'll want to read the instructions for how to install a plug-in very carefully. I am going to show you how to install this for Windows and then I'll show you how to find the instructions so that you'll know how to install plug-ins on your Mac. So I am going to go ahead and click on Save for Web for Windows 32 and I am going to save that. I am going to minimize my browser and on my desktop is the Save for Web plug-in.
I am going to double-click it and inside of it is a file called webexport. I am going to drag that one out to my desktop, so I can access it. Next what I am going to do is open up My Computer to browse to the GIMP folder where I need to install the plug-in. So I am going to go to Computer, I am going to go into my C Drive, into Users, into Jen Kramer, and here is the folder for .gimp-2.6.This is the file structure in Windows Vista.
The file structure for Windows XP and earlier versions of Windows is slightly different. So you may want to read the instructions to make sure you're saving your plug-ins to the right location. Inside the .gimp-2.6 folder is a folder for plug-ins. All I need to do is drag this EXE file into that particular directory. If you have GIMP open while you do this, that's fine. Just go ahead and close GIMP and reopen it so that the plug-in will load.
For those of you who are on Macs, if you go back to GIMP website, www.gimp.org, under the Documentation link, under English, down under Chapter 12, there is an option for Installing New Plugins. If you click that link, it will describe how to install your plug-ins for Linux, for Windows, and for Macintosh.
You may need to refer to these instructions to get your extension installed. Now I am going to go ahead and restart GIMP and I am going to go ahead and open up one of the files that we created before in Chapter 2 of the exercise files. I'll open header.psd.
Now when I go to the File menu, there is a Save for Web option. Under Save for Web, I can see my graphic and for example this is now showing me what this graphic would look like as a JPEG. As I reduce quality, you can see that the graphic gets all grainy but this type of graphic really shouldn't be saved as a JPEG anyway. It'll save smaller as a PNG or as GIF, and in fact the PNG saves the file size even smaller than the GIF in this particular circumstance.
Now I am going to click the Save button and I can go ahead and save this image right to my exercise files in Chapter 2, and I am going to call this one header-saveforweb.png to differentiate it from the one that we saved with the default GIMP settings. Click the Save button. Including plug-ins in GIMP can enhance its functionality and if you're used to a program like Photoshop, it can even mimic Photoshop a little bit more closely and you can work in a way to which you're grown accustomed.
The Save for Web plug-in is a great addition to GIMP, because it gives you a little bit more control over the file size of the images that you're creating.

File Read Failed (13) on Windows client

The following things can all help prevent Status 13 errors:
- Ensure that the latest service packs for all products and components (SQL, Exchange, Notes, etc.) have been installed.
- Ensure that all the network settings throughout the environment (NICs, hubs, switches, routers, etc.) are set to full duplex, not half duplex
- Increase the timeout settings on the NIC, if available.
- Try a different NIC, if available.
- If NIC teaming is implemented, deactivate for testing purposes. Refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base Q Article 254101.
- For mailbox backups, it is not recommended to run anti-virus software against the mail directories due to database locking issues. Verify if the anti-virus runs during this time frame and exclude the mail directories from being scanned if necessary.
- For database backups, review the file system and database backups and ensure that schedules do not overlap. Also, review any database maintenance schedules and ensure that they do not overlap with backup schedules.

- Connection reset by peer.
An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. This normally results if the peer application on the remote host is suddenly stopped, the host is rebooted, the host or remote network interface is disabled, or the remote host uses a hard close (see setsockopt for more information on the SO_LINGER option on the remote socket). This error may also result if a connection was broken due to keep-alive activity detecting a failure while one or more operations are in progress. Operations that were in progress fail with WSAENETRESET. Subsequent operations fail with WSAECONNRESET
Will Restore -- where there is a Will there is a way
This seems like a 'break in communication' from the client's side. Ensure that you have the following log folders on the media server for troubleshooting: bpbrm and bptm.
The logs needed on the client depends on the backup type. For Exchange and MS-Windows, bpbkar. For SQL, dbclient.
If you have a set of logs that covers the failure, please rename to process name (e.g bpbkar.txt) and post as attachment.
See if you can find out what else is happening on the client at the same time as the backup. Event Viewer Application log might be helpful.

As the Berkeley baseball team continue their march to a possible state championship less than 100 feet away, the Stags football team assembled for the first time on the practice field to wipe off the dust and clear the rust of a long off season.
This year, in 2014, the Stags have something to prove.
These guys have been under me their entire careers and they have grown up and matured on the field, Head Coach Jeff Cruce said. Were looking to improve on last year and take that next step in the devleopment of our football program.
Senior quarterback Joseph Dress returns as the starter to lead the Berkeley offense. Dress said his team looked good in its first days of practice.
We are opening up our routes faster, he said, which makes our offense run faster. Were hitting our routes.
It has been a long offseason since a 35-0 loss to Myrtle Beach in the 2013 playoffs that capped a 5-6 overall record, including a 3-2 third place mark in Region 8AAA. Still, Cruce remains optimistic about his players returning in the fall.
Weve been working hard in the weightroom since December, he said. Weve been in the classroom getting our plays down. Spring practice is a chance to evaluate what weve done over the last six months.
The Stags have some names that are starting to garner attention around the state.
We have a force on the offensive line in Alex Taylor, Cruce said. South Carolina came in and offered him a scholarship just based on his size. He has outstanding potential and has tremendously improved over the last two seasons.
Standing head and shoulders above the rest of his teammates, Taylor has benefitted from time in the weightroom and playing three sports: football, basketball and track.
Hes 69 and wears a size eighteen shoe, Cruce said. And hes still growing.
Taylor will help open running lanes for Dress and a backfield led by senior Jamal Bowman.
Were excited, Cruce said. Weve been working hard. Weve got size on our o-line.
We have a veteran presence in the backfield and wide receiver corps in Dionte Simmons, Jordan Brown, Keron Reed, D.J. Witherspoon and Deion Williams.
Chris Mathis has been moved from the offensive line to the the defensive line. A new Stag, Trey Covin, transferred in from Georgia and Cruce sees big potential in the lineman.
Hes got definite size and he likes to mix it up inside.
The opening kickoff is still more than two months away but the Stags are already getting ready for Stratford.
Spring is the time to find out where you are and to make the adjustments. Then we spend the summer building on what weve accomplished in the spring.
The annual Blue and Gold game is Friday, May 23. The time of kickoff has yet to be announced.
Wed like to do it during the school day so the kids can come out and watch the game, but that hasnt been decided yet, Cruce said.

Damian Lewis
The Emmy- and Golden Globe-winning star plays a tortured soul on his hit Showtime series "Homeland," but in real life, he's a tortured yet devoted husband (to equally amazing British actress Helen McCrory) and father (to Gulliver and Manon). "I was talking to Gully about something completely different and suddenly, without even looking at me, he said, 'D'you know Dad? When you're away sometimes I look out of my bedroom window at night and I call your name, and I cry,' Damian, 42, told UK Vogue. "I wrestle with this. Children like you being around … Nobody is perfect, but being there is a good start."

Free Miller Weld Setting Calculator available via the iPhone App Store or at MillerWelds.com/weldsettings
Calculator offers convenience, accessibility to information when welding from home, garage or shop setting
APPLETON, Wis. — Sept. 12, 2011 — Miller Electric Mfg. Co. has developed a Miller Weld Setting Calculator available via the IPhone App Store or MillerWelds.com/weldsettings. The calculator allows welders to conveniently access Stick, TIG and MIG equipment settings and other helpful tips.
Upon entering weld parameters, e.g. the type of material and material thickness being welded, the calculator will provide suggested settings including wire size and wire feed speed, shielding gas, voltage range and amperage range.
"Miller prides itself in creating high-quality, easy-to-use products that save time and simplify the welding and cutting process," said Sue Feldkamp, Interactive Marketing Manager for Miller Electric Mfg. Co. "This welding calculator application is a natural extension of that philosophy and allows our customers to quickly access the information needed to complete the weld — all without having to leave the garage."
All suggested settings are approximate. Welds should be tested to comply to user specifications.

Applescript to open when closed, close when open
I recently installed Mira, which lets me run commands/apps/applescripts by a press of a button on the remote. What I want to do here is set up a simple applescript to check if an app is open, and if it is, close it, but if it's closed, open.
So, basically, the sort of syntax in a C-style language:

When I started this quixotic adventure, I thought I'd try to photograph a sample of casino carpeting in every Las Vegas casino. On a pre-Katrina trip to the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I decided to extend it–why not take pictures of the carpets there? From there it grew into a national quest: in every casino city I visit now, I make a point of capturing each casino's floor for these pages.
Casino carpet is known as an exercise in deliberate bad taste that somehow encourages people to gamble.
In a strange way, though, it's s sublime work of art, rivaling any expressionist canvas of the past century. Note the regal tones of Caesars Palace, the bountiful bouquet of Mandalay Place, the soft, almost abstract pointillism of Paris, all whispering, "gamble, gamble" just out of the range of consciousness as people walk to the nearest slot machine.
Many of the carpets use flowers and wheels, both suggestive of a cyclical life: flowers bud, bloom, and then die, and their beauty is only ephemeral. The wheel was famous to the Romans (note its prominence at Caesars Palace) as a symbol of the relentless capriciousness of fortune. Could both be subtle reminders to casino patrons that life and luck are fleeting, and one should eat, drink, and be merry before the morrow brings a swing in fortune?
People are curious about how I take these pictures. Basically, I just walk into a casino, find a nice section of carpet, and snap a picture, while keeping an eye open for any casino staff. It's not that big a production. I would have added a Macau gallery, but security at those casinos was pretty adamant about the no pictures policy, and I really didn't want to get a firsthand view of the Chinese (or Macau SAR) criminal justice system.
In my quest to launch casino carpet hermeneutics as a legitimate academic discourse. I delivered a paper on it at an academic conference. Seriously. If you were at the 2005 Far West Popular Culture Association conference in Las Vegas, you might have seen my presentation:"Art for Gamblers' Feet: Casino Carpets from Coast to Coast."
People around the world have been wondering why I did this: the answer is, I guess, because the carpets are there. Having worked in casinos, I've always been fascinated by every element of the casino landscape. Even my academic work on casinos has been an attempt to answer the question of how you get people to spend hours in smoke-filled, garishly-decorated places, losing money–and liking it.
Head to the galleries to see even more.

At the beginning, I started with walking to the road with my sis (I was really out of shape) the next day I walked a bit farther... as I got stronger, I added time to my walk... 6 months later, I was going for hour long walks!Or start off by dancing to music in your living room! Get your heart pumping! Pace yourself!
I learned that if i have music that is starts out slow and gets faster as my workout does my pace moves with it.
I ride my exercise bike (and read a book) for 10 minutes every morning before my shower. It gets my heart pumping, and gets my knees moving so I can begin my day.
If you have older kids explain to them about one of the goals in your new healthy lifestyle is to get exercising. Give them a job of getting your moving. Tell them you will give any idea they come up with a try as long as they are doing it with you.

The scenario is not an unusual one. Celebrity leaves their significant others' apartment (see: attempts an anonymous walk of shame) and is caught by voracious paparazzi. News outlets go bananas distributing the pictures, construct horrendous headlines, and subsequently up their weekly magazine sales/ daily website traffic. The sun sets, and a new pseudo-scandal emerges faster than you can say "Lindsay Lohan."
In Japan, however, things work a little differently. There's no nonchalance about the private lives of pop idols. Minegishi Minami, a female member of the country's AKB48 pop supergroup, has been shamed after she was caught leaving the apartment of Alan Shirahama, another pop star, with group Generations, and apparently also her boyfriend. Photos of her leaving his house in a white breathing mask and trucker cap were published by a gossip magazine, Shukan Bunshun.
Once the 20-year-old singer's sexual escapades became publicised, Minami did not give paps the finger, tell her fans it "aint nobody's business" or simply tweet a non-apology. Instead, she felt impelled – thanks to some very public slut-shaming – to shave her head and, subsequently, make the below video (I found it deeply emotive, even though I can't understand a word).
Wait... what? She shaved her hair off because she had sex, with her boyfriend? Right.
Apparently, what makes the scandal so salacious is that confirmation of Minami's relationship ruins the allure of constructed fantasies for male fans of the group. The Japanese public (specifically, their teenage male fan base) feel less personally connected to stars who they think might have romantic lives. In fact, members of AKB48 are strictly forbidden from dating whilst in the group.
Anyway, you can read her full translated statement below and quietly celebrate the brazen sex-infused culture we live in. If nothing else - Britney aside - at least perpetual celebrity heartbreakers can keep their locks on.
"I'm Minegishi Minami from Umeda team B of AKB48.
(Deep Bow)
As the 1st generation member of AKB48, the group that has formed in 2005, it's my responsibility to always behave as a good role model to juniors. I deeply regret what I did this time. It was a thoughtless deed and I was completely lacking self-awareness as a senior member.
My brain blanked out and I'm still unable to figure out what to do, what I can do. But after I saw the magazine a little ago, I couldn't help but doing something. And I decided to shave my head without consulting any member or staff at my agency.
Although I don't think I would be forgiven by doing this, the first thing that I went through my head was that "I don't want to leave AKB48."
This is a place where my dear members, who I spent my blossom of youth together, are. And it's unimaginable to even think about leaving the group where I'm with so many wonderful and sweet fans.
I understand it's wishful thinking, but if it's possible, I would like to still be AKB48′s Minegishi Minami.
This is all my fault.
I'm truly sorry.
I will leave my hereafter to the hands of Akimoto-sensei and management.
Though I haven't been able to tidy my mind up, but I just wanted to tell my current feeling to you.
Thank you so much for listening to me."
The compromising culture surrounding K-Pop and Japanese groups has been widely documented by the media. There have been many cases where the popstars have been mistreated and made to sign contracts committing them to ludicrous working hours, abstaining from relationships and aligning themselves with certain political views for the sake of the band's image and sellability.
