    Must be nice to have enough money to not want to pay for police and fire services.

    Why is it the most complaints I've heard from people who think the healthcare bill sucks seems to do everything they can to avoid the people they "want to help" (e.g. not wanting poor kids in their kids' schools)?

    I think their healthcare social media posts come between them posting photos of their latest exotic vacation destination. White privilege indeed!

    Well ... the health insurance bill does suck. And the answer to your question is "Because libtards." So I'm told.

    I'm a little curious (and too lazy to research).

    How accurate were the ACA estimates before the bill became law (how many would be insured, how comprehensive would the coverage be, what would happen to premiums, etc.)?

    Save that one for the Betsy DeVos arguments.

    If you can cite those libtards pissing and moaning about having to buy healthcare under the Obamacare mandate, you're on to something.

    For those who think the healthcare bill sucks, as it does, the vast overwhelming majority are not motivated by some fancy pants superhero do-Gooder impulse to "help" the poor downtrodden underprivileged denizens of the great unwashed masses (as silly and ridiculous as you think such sentiments are), the motivation is to help THEMSELVES.

    they're not limousine liberals wringing their hands over the icky smelly poor people, they are pissed Off because the healthcare shit steamer is going to screw THEM. They, themselves, them.

    I don't really care about how Trumpcare is going to fuck over the great thronging masses of the underclass. Well I do a little, but let's not get carried away.

    (And while I don't lose huge chunks of sleep over the poors, I like to think I do care at least a teeny bit, as opposed to the "fuck your feelings"/"get a job" touchdown dancing of Team Fucko.)

    I care how it's going to fuck over big fat white middle-class male ME. And it's going to fuck me over in a big big way.

    Is that motivation pure enough for the free market true believers?

    Um, did anyone tell Grover how it was possible that those books were available to him at the public library?
