    Canpt get a mortgage without home insurance. Canpt drive a vehicle without at least liability. Those rates should be strictly government regulated to be sustainable and non-profit.

    Meanwhile, small speakers for under $500 have never sounded better.

    Or you can step up a notch and by used. I’ve got Rotel and Rega gear, which is way over-value.
