The mind set of the political left on clear display!

Recommended Posts

We see this same bull shit here on this site
Dont agree with the left? You are stupid, uneducated, brain washed, RACISTS!, or worse

Fuck these bastards who pushed this law through
THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS BEST FOR EVERYONE!!!!!
But they think they do

There is no compromising with the left
There is very little common ground
So stop trying
They are to be defeated

As for these midterms
The voice of the electorate is very clear
This elections was about STOPPING Obama and his leftist supporters and agenda. Period!!

The following is a GREAT example of the BS that is the elete left>:(

ObamaCare Writer Say Law Was Written to Confuse




Quote

.......MIT professor Jonathan Gruber told an audience at the University of Pennsylvania last year the “Affordable” Care Act had to be written in a way that obscured what the bill was actually about because that was the only way it could have passed. “Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage,” he said. “And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to pass.”

Unfortunately the video is a microcosm of politics in general. It's not about doing what is good for the country. Anyone with a brain could see that Obamacare was going to be bad for the middle class...bad for the healthy...and just another form of welfare. Even Snopes does their level best of whitewash what's being said.

And the FARs, of course, are beacons of transparency. So are the SEC regulations, the Social Security rules, the FCC regulations, IRS regulations, and anything else that lawyers had a hand in writing. Why would ACA be any different?

Do you have any idea just how big the US Code is? Find me anything in here or here that is not confusing.

Your post is just another one of your ill informed partisan rants.

The only thing you have supported it that you are fine with the get what you want any way you can crowd
Fully knowing that you must lie to get it, because on its own merits is it doomed

This my friend, is the definition of what it takes to push liberalism

Lies

You just told us you know more about the ACA than me

I knew it was a lie so you must have too

yet you supported the deception
Shameful

The point does seem to ring true. If you knew so much more about it then you must have known it was bullshit written so as to mislead the people who are bearing the brunt of the expenses. You point to SS but SS in its infancy was nothing like the monster it is today, nor were the other programs you mention. It's only through deception and lies and politicians wanting to do something to earn a paycheck that it has grown to this size. I wonder how big ACA will be in 25 years.

The righties said all along that the ACA was nothing more than taking money from the young and healthy to pay for the older and ill. Simply a way to redistribute wealth in order to subsidize those who aren't young and who aren't sick.

The dude is right. Had they been explicit that the bill was about seizing money and passing it out (a tax) then it ouldnt have been supported.

Fox News was right. Tea Partiers were right. The ACA was passed using the same tactics the Bush Admin used to get the Iraq War going. The people won't support nation-building. They'll support defensive war against terror.

Isn't that how all insurance works? Car insurance takes money from good drivers to pay for the damage caused by bad ones. Homeowners takes money from lucky/careful/well placed homeowners and uses it to pay for unlucky/careless/poorly placed homeowners.

The big difference is that we don't all have cars or houses. But we do all have bodies. And someone is paying for their care. "The government" is us anyway.

No. That's how insurance fails. Look at car insurance. Nobody thinks a person should be allowed to purchase insurance to repair a car that is destroyed. Or fire insurance after the house has burnt down.

Insurance is about spreading RISK. Even high-risk drivers get charged more because they are high-risk and pay that premium.

The ACA is about spreading COST. It's about charging less for those who will use it more and more for those who will use it less. This is anathema to what insurance is about. And with the ACA, the costs skyrocket but the price is kept artificially low (and still pretty damned high) by subsidies. This because it's not about risk but about cost.

It's not insurance. It's why insurance companies love it. It's risk-free for them. Guaranteed profit. They are administering the cost shifting/spreading programs and taking a cut.

Q. Ever wonder why the tax code is so confusing?

A. Because lawyers lobbied to have it that way.

55% of the senators in the 113th Congress are lawyers.


You lawyers would be unemployed if laws were written for average citizens to understand them.

Why expect the ACA to be any different from any other law?

Agreed. And no one is proposing that any dead person should be allowed to buy health insurance.

But even bad drivers are allowed to buy auto insurance, because you need it to drive. And even people with pre-existing conditions are allowed to buy health insurance.

>The ACA is about spreading COST.

In other words, it's health insurance. As I am sure you are aware (and to use your language) your own health insurance is taking money from the young and healthy to pay for the older and ill. It is simply a way to redistribute your money in order to subsidize those who aren't young and who aren't sick.

So is mine. So is everyone's. The reason it works at all is that it takes money from the young and healthy and spends it on the old and sick. In other words, that's not a bug, it's a feature - one you might rely on some day.

We already have a program for that called Medicare. This isn't about old and young. You're taking money from those that have it and giving it to those that don't...plain and simple. You can call it whatever you like but it's just another form of welfare. It does nothing to solve the real problems of cost. At this point it would just be better to go to a single payer system and flush the current insurance company/healthcare provider model.

If you would pick the healthcare system in the US over say the healthcare system in Canada, then there is no point in even trying to convince you that the ACA is a sep in the right direction.

I don't vote right often because too many of their policies are influenced by religious beliefs.

I should add neither the left or right have is figured out. Our problems could be solved if we had a party that was left with social issues and right with financial issues.
