Electric Bugaloo posted:http://www.politico.com/blogs/on-media/2015/10/donald-trump-cnbc-debate-will-be-unfair-215243 Several months ago I argued that Trump would start to play up the "the GOP's being ~*unfair*~ to me!" angle as preparatory to his exit from the race. I sincerely hope I called that one right, both as it'd be nice to have read the wind right, and also because Trump has been here long enough for any good he may have done.* *"In the name of god, go!"

You charged in here mad about how Medicare payments were going up with the implied blame being laid at Obama's feet and the Boomer generation, you've been corrected multiple times that the increase was coming long before this grand bargain, and you're still being an antagonistic prick, which is why you're getting picked on.

Back when there was a viable alternative to the Trump/Carson show they didn't seem so inevitable. Now literally every "serious" candidate has severe issues. Rubio decided to get out in front of his Senate record by telling everyone he hates being a Senator. Jeb Bush is floundering despite raising a shitzillion dollars. Christie is somehow a less appealing Trump. Everyone hates Cruz. The rest of the candidates would have a hard time getting arrested. I guess the establishment's hopes rest on Bush getting it together tonight? Seems unlikely. GOP looks doomed to a blowout in the election.

Rygar201 posted:Seriously, how is include his initial a train wreck? Also, it would be one thing if he did this while nothing was going on and could handle any problems that pop up. Instead, he's doing this right as he's becoming Speaker of the House, which means he's adding more potential confusion to the lots of chaos and confusion that's already going on.

You don't know you are going to have to pay a greater share because you don't know the future cost curve. The cost curve is a function of many parameters, including technology and consumer demographics. This is true of everything that exists, from tacos to sports cars. There also exists a number of possible solutions from political, economic, or development spheres that make your statement even less of a certainty. You have decided what you will declare the future to be and are throwing a tantrum about it when nothing you are saying is grounded in reality.

I'm sure he'll be back on the job with another department in no time. He's not being punished in any meaningful way, and he won't be. Not in this environment, not in this country.

I kinda respect it. He gave his list of demands and made the party loving beg before accepting the speakership, said "I'm gonna be a different kind of speaker PS I'm spring this deal gently caress you" then adds a D to his name. A bunch of moves telling the HFC to go get hosed.

Also, the Medciare Part B going up was for 30 percent of Part B participants because there was no COLA adjustment this year. If there is COLA incrase, then the premiums are taken from the COLA but because there is no inflation, in trigger an increase. This was from a law from 2005 I think.

Apropos of nothing, two random thoughts have occurred to me that I figured I'd address to you folks: 1.) Smoothrich's posts have inexplicably become more bearable once I realized his username is literally "Rico Suave" translated into English. 2.) Does anyone remember an incident from one of the recent previous elections where a politician sent out a campaign tweet that dropped a character from a YouTube URL, so that it ended up linking to a video of some hairy dude in lingerie and bunny ears playing a bass guitar to jpop? I remember that being goddamn hilarious. Agents are GO! fucked around with this message at 18:53 on Oct 28, 2015 |

If there is COLA incrase, then the premiums are taken from the COLA but because there is no inflation, in trigger an increase. One major problem is that the COLA depends on CPI-w was a measure of inflation and that doesn't in any way reflect how retirees actually spend (most glaringly only 6.15% of the index is healthcare related, and 19.4% is transport).
