ACA = the wrong "fix" to the wrong problem.

Yet Obama and his lackeys are all patting themselves on the back and congratulating themselves for a job well done.
Even if it's the wrong fix, shutting the government down to get it repealed is not the answer.

I made it to work and back yesterday without the governments help. Liberating feeling waking up to a smaller government (while it lasts)

Federal government should ONLY be used for upholding the law (not making it), central bank, and the defense of this country. Nothing else. The states should handle welfare, pensions, infrastructure, education, etc.

I agree.

1.  You must buy our product
2.  You must use our product at a place we do not regulate
3.  If you cannot fully afford our product, we will help you pay for it


So what is being subsidized?   The kids at the AT&T roundtable can answer this one.

Your pronoun usage is confusing. Maybe intentionally since I doubt you really understand who is doing what.
Maybe you don't understand because you're a dumbfuck?

Yeah, that's it.   Good day.

I like the government shutdown and the fact that it's an inconvenience to some.    Maybe some people will wake up, say "Hey, our system is broken" and then actually do something about it beside vote straight Republican/Democrat next time they have a chance.

Of course, that won't happen because the sheep have already decided who's at fault and it's the "other guy".

I see that you didn't clarify who "we" and "our" are. Shocking.

Is it really necessary?

Seriously?

I just assumed you were being an *******.    Do you really not understand?   And that's not me being an *******, it's a serious question.

****, I don't think you do.

You:  US citizens required to participate in ACA
We:  US gov't providing insurance and subsidizing it
Our:  Insurance provided by ACA

Wow.

I think this is BL's new tactic when he doesn't know how to respond . . . . pretend he doesn't know something, or that he doesn't understand what you are saying.

Either way, he still comes across as a dumbass.
10/2/2013 12:16 PM
He's always done that.    It was just too obvious this time.

I'd like to believe that the government will reject the $16 Advil charge and work on that problem but does anyone think that will happen?   If it does, it will likely be akin to the current system where insurance companies direct you to "in network" facilities to control costs.    If you choose "out of network", the excessive costs are your responsibility.   

How do the ACA supporters see this playing out?
I'd like to see someone answer this.

Here's something else:

More people having access to healthcare seems like a good idea.  The right thing to do.    And I have to admit I have a hard time objecting to it.   However, the dirty underside is that people will live longer and require more medical care to maintain life.   Isn't that going to escalate the cost of subsidized healthcare?

I only donate to animal charities and that's a question I ask myself from time to time.    Of course I get the emailed newsletters detailing how they saved a dog that was near death.   Right thing to do.   However, in the next paragraph, they'll ask for foster homes because the facility if overrun with animals needing homes.   They just went to great lengths to save a dog that had hours to live to add to their overpopulated/underfunded facility.     Is that where ACA is headed?

Wow.
The US government is providing insurance? So your "our" in all three lines is the federal government?

Yikes.

I said it was a "dirty underside".  

I'm touched when the pound saves a dog from near death after a rough life.   I'm the ******* who's clouding up and writing another check.   But the logical side of me thinks "Does that help the situation?"
