President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Alright. That's persuasive. They do make the argument, however, that the drugs improve lives. I think that's a reason to put it under the coverage umbrella, but opinions may vary.

Also, in the populations most affected by ACA and Medicaid, the cost relationship is different. That's where a lot of your behavioral health cases or combined behavioral/physical health. Social determinants of health, etc. And they take a large share of the pie.

 

Where are you getting this from? Try to go a shade deeper than "people voted for Trump."

 

Try this:
Watch the Same Americans Say They Hate Obamacare But Love the Affordable Care Act

Or this:

Did that just happen? Did someone actually consider, in good faith, an argument I made? Y'all are gonna have to excuse me while I process that. Oh, and hand me a tissue.

 

Why do Samantha Bee, her husband, cran, and Gee support Democrats who want rich people to have to put up with poor kids in local schools? Guess voting against their self interest is more noble.

 

I'm not immune to what one might refer to as the "hedonic" argument, which is that even if it doesn't necessarily change one's health story, simply knowing (or being confident) has some value. I, of course, am a contrarian ... I prefer to be ignorant and (sort of) worried.

 

lol. YOU said that?

 

Lint.

 

OK. That first link is not exactly scientific proof. The NYT article has some evidence, but it also refers to some details that indicate more confusion about what the policy is called, rather than what it does.

Also, late-night comedy shows are not news. I'm sure a good 70-80 percent of people who post on this thread think otherwise, but that would be incorrect.

 

Work it, Poo-Pants!

 

What? What!? WHAT!?!?!?

 

Cutting-edge commentary, dumbass.
Usually delivered within hours. You don't get that?
