This new healthcare plan doesn't accomplish anything they claim they want. It literally only accomplishes the thing they won't say out loud that they want, which is major tax breaks for the extremely rich and industry special interests. And it helps people that don't want coverage as long as they never ever get sick.

Wow.

So Mr. "Drain the Swamp" basically hired a bunch of lobbyists and bankers and oil CEOs in his regime.  Only his fans are surprised, really.

His fans don't care. He lied to their faces and admits he lied to their faces and they still worship him. It's time to stop thinking that anything will make them see him for the fraud he is because their attachment to him is based on religious fervor not logic or reason.

That's why I posted last week that they need to drink the Kool Aid so the rest of us can move past them and get on with setting the path for impeachment and the way forward.

It makes no sense to waste time trying to fathom the dark recesses of the minds of these supporters who insist on clinging to lies.

 

Hilary would have continued the suckage that is obamacare. She would have given more free insurance to people on welfare. Thank god Hilary is not prexy. 

The Right weeding out those who are more likely to use medical insurance. They just love eugenics and natural selection.

That's true, but I can't pretend to understand how evangelicals reconcile their support of a man that is the antithesis of everything they claim to believe in.  The only logical conclusion is that they are all hypocrites.

Which is ironic for people who won't have none of that evolution talk.

Evangelicals are more like sluts.  Whisper a little scripture in their ears and they'll be flat on their backs for you in no time.

Trolls are special in their general contempt for poor people.  If we're simply talking about able-bodied people scamming welfare, then yes it is wrong for them to take away from those in need.  When we're talking about people who need welfare to survive then what's wrong with them receiving free insurance? In fact what's wrong with everyone receiving free insurance? Rich people get free stuff all the time and yet I never see the Jons of the nation constantly lamenting how rich people are getting free stuff since they'd rather gripe about poor people getting free stuff, and how they should work for it like everyone else...as if none of them ever try or want to work for it like everyone else. 

 

Some of us are only too happy to spend money on software from giants such as Adobe, but let an independent software developer charge $30 for similar software and we're whining because it's not free. 

 

Capitalism results in a lot of people falling by the wayside and it's not because they're all incapable of being productive. The GOP's platform is built on hatred for the common man and they rely heavily on encouraging resentment towards people who are not wealthy period. And for a party that speaks as if they have a pipeline to Jesus, they seem to comprehend so little about Christianity.

They're simply not Christians.  They fall right into "many are called but few are chosen."  One of the main reasons it's hard to be a Christian is because it's hard to give up worldly things.  The fact that they are all prone to placing material things over human life is the surest of indicators.  There's a proverb in the Bible in which Jesus says that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to go to Heaven.

Congress begins rolling back Obama's broadband privacy rules

 

ISPs will be able to sell your personal information to the highest bidder. Trump and his cabal are rolling back every regulation they can get their grimy paws on.

 

Like someone said earlier, too bad we all can't roll back to 2009.

Nothing the GOP has done has done a thing for middle class Americans or the little guy. It amazes me that none of these people hold any resentment for the corporate welfare big corporations get, the tax breaks they get, the huge salaries their CEO's get. And for what. Carly Fiorina destroyed HP(well it was on a downward spiral when she came in) but she certainly didn't help it yet walked away with a Golden parachute.

 

These people can fail time after time and contribute to the losses of millions of jobs, tank the stock market, but somehow we are supposed to admire them? Funny is that now I don't hear any bitching about billionaires or Goldman Sachs influence or rolling back of banking regulations now that it's not Hillary. A grifter conman is to be admired for screwing thousands of middle class small business people while people look down their noses at poor people and those middle class folks who in some cases went bankrupt as a result. And small businesses by the way have been the biggest job creator in the last 15 years.

PREACH!

 

Fiorina's HP stint alone contributed to tens of thousands of job losses, in and of, itself.

All I ever heard the Right when do listen to them, is the same old, failed policies that they have used in the past. There's nothing that they don't do that doesn't end up screwing somebody over.

I was expecting the GOP to go giddy over the .1% drop in the unemployment rate even though Trump claims he inherited a terrible economy and that 94 million are out of work (and he's going to get 25 million jobs as the biggest job creator ever), but this lot has exceeded my expectations:
