The 2% Health Insurance Plan
You thought the 1%'ers were bad....

THIS is what Obama/Democrats calls a victory and a success...(see below)

The previous claim: 47 Million Uninsured

The current Claim: 7.1 Million Enrolled....EXCEPT...

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/04/01/the-secretive-obamacare-study-that-may-reveal-how-many-previously-uninsured-americans-have-actually-paid-for-a-plan/

Only 23% were previosuly uninsured, and possibly 50+% haven't paid a premium...so as few as 1 million have actually bought an *paid for* (meaning it is actually active insurance. No pay = no coverage) insurance that didn't previously have insurance....

(And of those with prior coverage, many now suffer more expensive policies, with higher deductibles, and a smaller network of coverage...)

Leaving 46 Million Americans still uninsured. A 2% reduction in uninsured.

How much money did the Federal government spend of your tax dollars to cover 1 million people?

And are you pissed?

Is this how YOU define success?

No, I'm not pissed. Even if this law doesn't succeed in all of its goals (which we will only know in the fullness of time) at least the political leaders behind it don't have blood on their hands such as those who started the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. I'd much prefer my government try to solve domestic problems rather than murdering people abroad. So no, I'm not pissed and I think you're an anti-Obama hack.

That's literally one of the most bullshit arguments I've ever seen on this site.

Sadly it's one that a lot of people seem to think is a sound argument.

Wanting my government to try to solve domestic problems rather than creating bloody messes in foreign countries is a bullshit argument? The biggest bullshit arguments ever? Really?

No, it's a bullshit argument because asking Obama to be nothing more than better than Bush is a really, really, really low standard, and if that's how you judge what he does, you're allowing him to do as badly as he is.

I don't think Obama is doing badly, and my standard is not that Obama does a little better than Bush. In fact my standard is for Obama to be as different from Bush in all the ways that I think matter, and chief among them is that the centerpiece of Obama's administration has been domestic policymaking vs. that of Bush's administration, which was basically indiscriminate killing and general aggressiveness and bellicosity, against foes domestic and foreign alike.

By the way, Obama murders villagers around the world on a fairly regular basis with the indiscriminate use of weaponized drones.

Just because you aren't spoon fed the truth doesn't mean it isn't out there for you to find, moron.

@Vallk...he's on to me? I fail to see *anywhere* that he has actually made a relevant comment.

He's just a Pro-Obama SHEEP....and worse, he's a blind and ignorant fool...as is the case with most Obama-tards.
"7) He's kept goofy Uncle Joe Biden from becoming President for five long years."

I dunno about y'all but I am actually thankful for this

@PE

Maybe, but if Obama hadn't run with him in the first place, Biden being president wouldn't even be something we're worried about.
i'm trying to find silver linings where i can

Mods are Dirty So-N-So's
That's right folks, it's another "Dirty So-n-So" game...step right this way. This time we make war in honor of, and in light of, the Mod Team.

Step up if you're man enough...and we need at least two Mods two (in order to mock them). Modern Dip II, WTA, NON-Anon, no-holds-barred negotiations, 36 Hr, blah blah blah.

Is there a feature for the use and creation of games for a classroom?
I am a teacher that wants to use this web game for a simulation for my different classes. Is there a method to create a game for my different classes, or would I have to have several users to join and create different games. Let me know so that I can plan ahead to implement this in my classroom. Thank you.
