: That's the best reason to be a do-it-yourselfer: you get fed up with
: everyone's hands in your pockets. And, there's nothing worse than having
: to pay it to bureaucrats. I'd be pissed off too. Next time, make your own.

This string is so long I don't know where to hang my post so I will hang it on yours Chip. I have recently needed to buy medicine that cost $315 for a three months supply at our local pharmacy here in the U.S. I search the internet for the best price and found it in Canada for $130 for a three months supply. The second cheapest was $165 in what I thought was the U.S. But, by the time all of the extra charges and red tape were added up for buying from Canada the price was around $165 also but the shipping time was much longer. Well, I ordered from the U.S. (I thought) and 5 days later I got my order from New Zealand for $164.80 and free shipping. So the world free trade will save me a huge amount of money for the rest of my life. I would have liked to buy from Canada but you can see why I didn't. The shipping was a real bummer. As long as 21 days they said.
