obamacare IS the ACA. and there is a penalty for not carrying insurance. I KNOW, BECAUSE I PAID THEM. it’s 2.5% of your yearly income A MONTH regardless of tax bracket or poverty status. jesus, it’s one thing when hicks and religious gun nutters don’t have a clue that obamacare is the ACA, but what’s your excuse and…

they’re not stupid enough to repeal it completely. the new penalties are actually MORE of a relief. under obamacare, the penalty for not carrying insurance was 2.5% of your income REGARDLESS of bracket. under the new revisions it’s 30% of a premium which for a lot of people is SUBSTANTIALLY less.

give me a break, obamacare brought healthcare down to $55 a month for the lowest tax brackets (see those who actually pay taxes) otherwise it is FREE locally (medical/medicare). 1 iphone pays for health care for ONE YEAR. i know, because i belonged to this bracket just 2 years ago. what a completely slanted article.

but it’s not just a history, it’s current common practice. i bring up China because we are in direct commerce with them despite their censorship and jailing of dissidents. this is at a MUCH larger scale than pussy riot in russia. hell, china is notorious for “the great firewall” and censoring their social media. they…

what you’re describing is exactly what China is doing to its people, and to a great extent what South Korea suffered before more subtle conglomerates took the place of overt dictators. i meant to conclude in the last post that “dictator” is not automatically a disqualifier. Can we objectively prove though, that…

so this isn’t even about morality then? China hacks us everyday for god knows what, Obama gives a finger wag, and they can continue to make our iphones. We can’t buy oil from Russia or sell them goods because... why?

we’ve trusted worst dictators. you realize Mao and Deng Xiaoping have twice the kill count of Hitler and Stalin COMBINED right? China currently makes our iphones and computers, electronics, appliances, components, etc. How is Putin/Russia any less trustworthy than china and the dictators who run/ran them? Moreover,…

we’re talking about alliances. do you believe in world peace or should we continue to hate everyone until the end of time? germany and japan were our largest enemies and we bombed the hell out of them only to create 2 of the top 4 largest economies in the world. hell, THE ENGLISH, our parent colonizers were vehemently…

no... the article claims we’ve been “compromised” but no one knows why we don’t like the russians.

last week everyone was complaining about Trump’s Muslim ban which left out Muslim majority countries implicated with 9/11, yet no one complained about our government being “compromised”

really confused who and what we’re…

LOL WTF how does accusing the saudis of foul play make me a racist? you’re a fucking moron

to disarm your generalist dumb shit, establishing a pro-american shia (see: MUSLIM) oil state was A-o-fucking-kaaay, but Obama chose to take boots off the ground in favor of fracking. but please continue to pull your race card.…

how idiotic. saudi oil makes up 8% of OUR consumption but this makes more than 70% of THEIR total exports, while THEY dictate the price of oil being more than 20% of the total oil market. they’ve been bullying the market for more than half a decade and recently destroyed Obama’s fracking efforts by flooding the market…

funny, why do the saudi’s and pakistanis get a pass for directly attacking us ? (see: 9/11.) faux-allies if you ask me if their theocratic state directly funds madrasas that are OVERTLY anti-american

like what exactly? we have more in common with Russians than saudis culturally, and russians have never been accused of attacking us (see: saudis and 9/11). why shouldn’t we just buy oil for russians and give the finger to the saudis for all the trouble they’ve been giving us for the last 60 years?

does anyone know why we should hate the russians?

yeah, her emails. sorry buddy you can’t claim breitbart or alt-right for this one. before Devos, Clinton has long been implicated with donors buying their seats and influence with her. also, continue to keep your head in the sand about her ties to the Saudis http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/clinton-donor-sensitive-intell…
