man, the atlantic video of the white supremacist meeting with dudes in suits triumphantly shouting and nazi saluting the coming regime seems kind of ominous

These gleeful and emboldened bigots slithering into the open and making their presence felt is really enraging and it's awakening long dormant fash-bashing instincts in me

They really need to be physically confronted and put back in their place, and I've sorta made a pledge to myself not to just look away and avoid conflict if I see some puffed-up nazi getting in someone's face

Problem with that being I'm still only five two and a buck twenty soaking wet

I may need to learn how to fight dirty

It's 100% about keeping eyeballs on the screen long enough to sell them pharmaceuticals and financial products during the break

CNN made money hand over fist covering Trump and Mooves over at cbs openly stated that Trump was bad for America but good for his network

Journalistic dignity and ethics will have little to do with how Trump is covered, it will be decided based on which method will guarantee the most viewers

The problem is people have learned that making ridiculous poo poo up out of whole cloth which reinforces what certain people want to believe is extremely easy money and until that's no longer the case it's gonna get worse

either that or people are gonna have to start exercising some critical thinking skills and stop eagerly falling for batboy caliber garbage like pizzagate and protesters getting fat $3500 checks to protest Trump

probably because the people signing up for obamacare are mostly middle aged and older who don't yet qualify for medicare and have tons of medical issues

the plan was to get younger healthy people to sign up in order to offset that, but welp the only jobs youngins can get that don't already provide insurance don't pay enough for them to afford lovely aca plans. but yeah on top of that if they're in a state that refused medicaid expansion that's tough titty all around

Plus young healthy people just don't see a benefit in shelling out >$300 per month for high deductible health insurance that they never use. There was a survey recently stating that 93%(!) of millennials don't even bother scheduling preventative doctor visits. If that's the case why even bother, just cross your fingers and take the penalty.

Randler posted:

I just googled it and apparently the penalty is also capped at way less than you'd pay in a year using the 300 USD/months contracts? :staredog:

Yeah

so on the surface it doesn't make much sense for young healthy people to sign up for lovely high deductible health insurance that can cost as much as a car payment per month when they usually don't see a doctor for years anyway

of course eventually some young guy who rolls the dice like that will end up in a car wreck or have appendicitis or some poo poo through no fault of their own and they're financially hosed

single payer/Medicare for all would fix this but nooooo that hurts insurance companies and then "those people" get healthcare too so that isn't happening
