CNN?

But how is the ACA an unsustainable shitshow?

Yes, it even says they did in the article:DeepSeaZ said:you don't say. Didn't they know this before hand?
money.cnn.com/2016/03/30/news/economy/obamacare-patients-blue-cross-blue-shield/index.html"It's no surprise that people who newly gained access to coverage under the Affordable Care Act needed health care; that's why they were locked out of coverage before," said Ben Wakana, national press secretary, Health Department.
He also took issue with the study's methodology, saying comparing newly insured Obamacare enrollees with those who've long been covered in the employer market makes the former look sicker. -

So you're telling me that folks who were previously denied insurance because of pre-existing conditions, cost more and are generally sicker than the folks who already had insurance before Obamacare? Get the fuck out.

Part of this is self correcting as hospitals and urgent care are requiring up front co-pays and deductible's be paid up front at time of admission.
-
And most of them are paid for by the legal working folk. Imagine that! Wow sounds like a Bernie wonderland but's it's just an Obunghole nightmare.DeepSeaZ said:you don't say. Didn't they know this before hand?

There is no medical need to smoke pot. They've had THC in pill forma forever. Just the lie the hemp hooligans used to smoke more and be incarcerated less.2001400ex said:

But then you say you oppose it for the method of intake, not the drug itself?
Strange. -
No I oppose the false pretense used so you can get a card from a dope smoking doc and puff away tax free and lawfully just to get loaded.
Did you miss the part where the pill may be more effective? Did you even read it? Gupta? -
The pill isn't more effective. There's more to cannabis than just THC. But at the end of the day, smoking, taking a pill, edibles, vapes, etc, it's the same thing. Why do you care how they ingest it?Sledog said:No I oppose the false pretense used so you can get a card from a dope smoking doc and puff away tax free and lawfully just to get loaded.

And if we are talking false pretense and tax free, why not support federal legalization and taxation? CO and WA are doing great. Or are you one of those people that got brain washed by Ronald Reagan when he told you weed was the worst drug in America??? -
You obviously don't live in Washington state

Yeah you didn't know what was in the article YOU posted..... Heck that it backed my position was because the people you were using to prove your point must not have known anything either. I'm guessing you're not a rocket scientist.2001400ex said:

I have a lot of experience with dumb dope smokers, drunks, addicts etc. None of it makes you smarter.

You've clearly never met a functional pothead or cokehead. I know several of both that write bigger checks to the IRS than you lie about paying.Sledog said:I have a lot of experience with dumb dope smokers, drunks, addicts etc. None of it makes you smarter.

That a couple people you claim to know, doubtful you have friends, can smoke and use blow while managing to flip burgers really doesn't prove much. Hey where's my fries!2001400ex said:
