    I'm really curious how a cause of fire is identified. Where do you start looking? Pag maraming bahay na natupok, paano nila nalalaman na ang cause ng sunog eh dahil sa naiwang kandila sa bahay ni Juan Dela Cruz?

    They say faith in prayer can move mountains, hopefully it can stop 3 volcanoes.

    I'm actually starting to believe my 2019 Camry SE will be the last car I pay for. I can't wait to start commuting and riding the bus all the time. No more car. No more registration, no more auto insurance, no more fuel expenses. Pay the bus fare and take a nap.

    I'm sure the religious would not allow it. Parang SOGIE bill at Divorce lang yan.

    We're hypocrites that way.

    You don't like commuting? I love it even when it's rainy and I'm trudging through the muddy streets. So long as I have an umbrella, I'm happy. With all the traffic there, many drivers are close to road rage and it takes only one little thing for a driver to go berserk.

    Yeah religion can make people close minded. Might take years for them to change their minds.

    Cost analysis of medical assistance in dying in Canada | CMAJ

    Abstract
    BACKGROUND: The legalization of medical assistance in dying will affect health care spending in Canada. Our aim was to determine the potential costs and savings associated with the implementation of medical assistance in dying.

    METHODS: Using published data from the Netherlands and Belgium, where medically assisted death is legal, we estimated that medical assistance in dying will account for 1%–4% of all deaths; 80% of patients will have cancer; 50% of patients will be aged 60–80 years; 55% will be men; 60% of patients will have their lives shortened by 1 month; and 40% of patients will have their lives shortened by 1 week. We combined current mortality data for the Canadian population with recent end-of-life cost data to calculate a predicted range of savings associated with the implementation of medical assistance in dying. We also estimated the direct costs associated with offering medically assisted death, including physician consultations and drug costs.

    RESULTS: Medical assistance in dying could reduce annual health care spending across Canada by between $34.7 million and $138.8 million, exceeding the $1.5–$14.8 million in direct costs associated with its implementation. In sensitivity analyses, we noted that even if the potential savings are overestimated and costs underestimated, the implementation of mdedical assistance in dying will likely remain at least cost neutral.
    it's about the state reducing healthcare cost

    "i wanna migrate to canada they have free healthcare"

    so you're old and sick and the state sees you as a liability

    instead of providing care that will make you live a few more years, the state suggests MAID (medical assistance in dying)

    Yup this is great. When I stopped working, I take the bus when I need to go to Manila, I can rent a car to do that if no one is available to drive me. Once in Manila, there's grab and taxis, jeeps are fine with me, and LRT is the best even if crowded. No worries about traffic, parking and accidents. Walking several blocks also does not bother me. For family trips, just use the car.

    That's one difference I like between driving ang public transpo. Pag nabanga yung bus, jeep or taxi na sinasakyan mo, baba ka lang at lipat ng iba. Di mo pede gawin yan pag sarili mo sasakyan. [emoji23]

    I know there are big air conditioned buses that ply the route between Las Pinas and Quezon City. So, that part of commuting is a known quantity. Another route that might prove important is one that goes near the US Embassy. I might have to use a taxi/Grab for that or do it the old-fashioned way: take the closest public transportation route and walk the rest of the way.

    Wala na yung bus na Las Piñas to Quezon City, I remember that in the 90s, EDSA route nya then diretso coastal road then Las Piñas. Pero wala na sya ngayon.

    I can ride anything if commuting but 1 thing I'm not is a pedicab. Aside from being overcharged if they sense you are unfamiliar, they have no sense of safety. They will cut 4 wheeled vehicles in an intersection like they owned their passengers life.

    What you're saying is this route is gone? I mean instead of one bus ride with a direct route, it now takes two rides? Oh well. Still manageable.
