    The law is fucked up, don't get me wrong. You are just placing your anger in the wrong area. You can't argue that increased transparency with the exchanges is a bad thing.
    I'm not angry

    The law made things worse and it is getting repealed

    What is my ilk you little bitch?

    I've had a job since I was 12. I've never had any government assistance of any kind my whole life.

    Still, my parents paid for my college, and I've never missed a meal I didnt choose to, so I don;t pretend to be gritty and tuff like those that have had a rougher life than I've had. But I bet I'm tuff enough to shut your dumb ass up.
    You sound angry.

    And a lot like you care.

    Maybe you should vote Trump.

    That escalated quickly.

    How has the law made things worse? Our economy has gotten better (the exact opposite of the cratering your news source predicted). And health care costs have slowed their massive gains.

    And it won't get repealed.

    There's thing to fix with the law, but it's a start at fixing the real issues.

    I'm not 100 percent sure, but it feels like nothing you said in this post is actually correct.

    Lol except the fact the economy has gotten better. You're news source said it would crater and it didn't. The bill needs a lot of fixing. You know, the rest of my post was wrong.

    I'm going to need to see evidence that health care costs have slowed their massive gains. Not even sure what that sentence means. Does that mean costs rose tremendously under Obamacare, but are now finally slowing? Or does it mean that costs are retreating since Obamacare? Or something else? Please enlighten.

    It means health care costs were growing at 8-10% a year or whatever. And now they are growing at 3-5% or whatever. My personal insurance stayed the same 2 years ago (my firm shopped insurance and changed after the current provider said 5% increase). Then last year it went up 3%.

    Holy crap I would love to pay down the principal on my mortgage and have that count account my taxes. At least the mortgage interest counts on some level...
    That would have very harmful economic repercussions. You are now incentivizing taking on debt for those who may not need to. Why pay for a house with cash when you can take out a 20 year mortgage and have it count against future taxable income?

    Of course I care about taxes you fuckhead - because I pay them

    And yeah - it pisses me off when some shitbird like you thinks you know what my ilk is. You have a habit of pretending you know shit you don't.

    I might vote for Trump if he ever grows a pair and says HOW he'll make America great instead of just paying lip service.

    So I'm getting high Saturday and turn on the SC victory speech by the Donald and he introduces his wife and she starts to speak

    I'm at that point where the weed is just kicking in and you can see through things and I'm thinking to myself - am I really watching a serious contender for the Presidency introduce his third trophy wife who is half his age and pretty hot so she can speak to the nation?

    Why yes I am. Cool.

    I also had a flash that he could in fact be our Hitler but you know man, who the fuck cares?
    Donald has the cool factor this country has been missing for years.

    Fucking this.

    We are finishing our Mao so I'm not seeing how this is much of a change for the worse.

    Let's put it this way: Honda would vote for Hitler if he was on the Democratic ticket.

    Like I understand the practical purpose of taxing corporations but why does it make sense in an ideal world?
    Because the rules, as they currently are, do not motivate a corporation to hire here Stateside. One sided Trade agreements and little to no penalty for off-shoring jobs makes the old argument of let the Corporations growth of hiring employees pay the taxes null and void IMO. If you don't tax them, you won't get shit out of them in some instances.

    Hey a democratic socialist? IIRC Hitler was a democratic socialist. How'd that all work out?

    If you'd just sack up and run, all my fucking indecision would be history. You could beat any of these a holes rather easily.
