How Can LASIK be Tax Free?
2011-05-14
LASIK is an elective procedure. As such, most insurance companies will not pay for it. Many people equate "elective" with "expensive" and choose to forgo procedures like LASIK, even if the procedure would greatly enhance their quality of life.
The good news is elective procedures do not have to be financially crippling. With a flexible savings account (FSA) set up by your employer, elective procedures like LASIK can actually be tax free. What this means for you is a savings of up to 40 percent, which makes this wonderful procedure much more accessible ...

2011-05-14
For years, the United States has battled the infamous "war on drugs." First coined by President Richard M. Nixon in 1970, the "war" was designed to crack down on drug offenses and the drug trade by increasing budget resources to clean-up crime and by implementing hard jail sentences for non-violent drug offenders.
As a result, subsequent laws were passed heightening the penalties for drug-related offenses. The number of nationwide drug arrests therefore rose a whopping 126 percent by the 1980s, raising the number of incarcerated drug offenders twelvefold. ...
