Quote from: K-S-U-Wildcats! on January 31, 2018, 10:45:22 AMProbably shouldn’t have passed a law requiring insurance to cover preexisting conditions, huh? Also, insurance premiums were exploding regardless of the individual mandate because not nearly enough young, healthy people were buying insurance, mandate be damned.And not to quibble, but the primary aim of Obamacare was always expanding Medicaid. It has been marvelously “successful” (at running up massive costs) in that regard.Democrats rammed this crap bill through, and it’s gonna get worse until they join with Pubs to fix the mess they made. By contrast, Pubs rammed through tax reform, which I suspect is going to be hugely popular.Most of America has no idea how much Obamacare has mumped up insurance coverage for people that are not covered by the gov't or their employer (which is most of America). For those people like myself who actually have to purchase our own insurance....my wife and son and i are on our 4th different provider in 4 years and pay around 3X what we were paying 5 years ago for less coverage and a much higher deductible. It's basically a month long process (on the phone) each time our provider decides they aren't going to cover our "area" any longer. It's a way bigger mess than most people realize.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

It's a way bigger mess than most people realize.That may all be true, to which the Dems would respond: “eff you.” Obamacare was designed to expand Medicaid and further degrade the private insurance model. It is a despicable law rammed through by despicable people and is still being defended by these folks. Until the pubs get more reinforcements or Dems finally come to the table, it’s going to be hard to undo the damage.
in the end, EMAW will always win.

You've heard of them right? All very hilarious.

What should we do? Revolt? It's sad that you can't accept what he has accomplished regardless of what a tool he is. Glad you're not bitter though.

I believe he's accomplished more than any other president in Year 1....isn't that right?
Rationalizing to own the libs
