Before the ACA, I didn’t have medical coverage at ALL.
The health care insurance companies literally created a shared database of blacklist victims who they denied health care to. It was at mib.com, which is now a completely different site.
In retrospect I don’t believe for a second that he had any intention of doing much of anything. Just empty campaign lies.
We literally got everything Obama campaigned on in health care except the public option. This is what Obama promised you. If you say he promised something else, that’s your lie, not his.

No one I know who voted for Obama had any serious expectation that we were getting Single Payer.
Because that was never his proposal.

We elected Obama with the hope for single payer healthcare and received Romney Care in a rebrand effort called the ACA.
Dude if you didn’t read Obama’s 2008 campaign proposal for health care reform that’s on you. The only thing we didn’t get was the public option, thanks to Joe Lieberman.

Democrats passed ACA
So they got healthcare for tens of millions of people. That’s fantastic. I used it for awhile myself.
God our government is so fucking useless for anything that might actually help people.
More specifically: gop.gov
Wow thanks for posting
Okay but why is the media treating this as more important than every other murder? It’s not. That’s what people are mad about. If anything, it is less important, since the motivation is something that not a threat to the general public.
(Gen X voted for Trump at a higher rate than boomers)
That’s really sad because the younger someone is the more they are going to be fucked by the long term effects of Donald Trainwreck’s enshitification of everything. Nuclear proliferation from the new world disorder, global warming, hyperinflation of the national debt due to gigantic tax cuts for the billionaire elites, hollowing out democracy, normalization of corruption, normalization of routine dishonesty, huge economic inefficiencies that comes with wealth inequality, removal of previous rights like abortion, vast increase in government incompetency, etc
I think you will find Palestinian citizens agree with you on that point.
Yes. And the Israeli hostages.
Killing people who were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time is always wrong.
Fuck the media for treating this murder as super important. This is something that only wealthy elites care about.
When the war was still going on, they probably did celebrate the number of enemy killed.
What a deranged thing to attempt by BCBS.
It was Anthem.
Edit:
My bad. Anthem is BCBS.
Now consider that forex traders often leverage at 1:500 margins. You get to buy massive positions with currency pairs, and even the tiniest fluctuations can provide massive profits or instantaneous ruin.
Yikes. I would have never considered that doing this would be anything more than a wild gamble. It is a good thing that you only lost pretend money.
Usenet to me seems more like Lemmy than anything else. All conversations are groups by topic, just like Lemmy. Although they are all just “text posts”.
I don’t see how a “Chrome” company would make any money. Now if the Chrome Company also owned ChromeOS and Chromebooks that might be interesting. But it could also be bad, because such a company would probably want to take a cut of every Chromebook in order to actually make money.
Isn’t forex just foreign currency trading? I don’t understand how a foreign currency could be worth 50000USD one minute and only 600USD 5 minutes later unless it was a country with hyperinflation.
Are you saying Google funds node.js development?
Not a flop at all. I used ACA for several years and was extremely glad to have it.
