The real reason Obama insists upon making the young and healthy buy insurance they don’t want is not the relatively minor free rider problem but the potentially ruinous adverse selection problem: The most expensive patients are the ones who are most likely to sign up for coverage. To keep the official 10-year price tag of his plan below that magical $1 trillion threshold, he needs to balance sick people who rack up big bills with healthy people who pay for insurance but don’t use it. Instead of acknowledging this reality, Obama portrays the healthy uninsured as irresponsible leeches.
Yup, here is a dose of reality for all those idealistic young folks who voted for Obama without a real clue of what he was actually planning, he just views you as a money source he can leech off to support his socialist policies.
Welcome to the farm comrade.
These are members of the Oversight Committee who walked out of chambers before the family members of the Benghazi victims were going to speak. Much like Obama and Hillary who turned their backs on Benghazi, the lap dogs did the same thing to the surviving families. I can’t think of anything more despicable than what these people did.
What a slap in the face to the families, but also America. I am disgusted by their actions and they should all be removed from office immediately.
What is happening to this country?
4 years of saying he will fix the economy, create jobs, pass healthcare reform.
Well he did one of those things, behind closed doors, on Chritsmas Eve, without even reading the law, which has turned out to be a disaster.
Watch if you can stomach it.
Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain hired the Syria analyst in favor of U.S. intervention who was fired for fabricating her Ph.D. Elizabeth O’Bagy, formerly of the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), will start Monday as a legislative assistant in Sen. McCain’s office.
This is the women who sold McCain a pack of lies about the Syrian rebels and their “moderate” stance, then caught in a lie about her education. Yeah seems about right for McCain right now.
McCain told Foreign Policy that “Elizabeth is a talented researcher, and I have been very impressed by her knowledge and analysis in multiple briefings over the last year.” The senator’s office said they would not make any further comment on O’Bagy’s employment.
Wrong! I would say theirs some splainin’ to do.
As a kid I learned lessons the hard way, the school of hard knocks is a rough way to go, so I tried not to make those mistakes again. And I taught my kids what I learned to hopefully keep them from having to go through what I went through. It seems as though Washington DC and the Obama administration have not looked at lessons learned. They choose to ignore them, even as the City of Detroit gives them a blueprint of what not to do, they press on towards the destruction of the country. Sad but true.
The biggest problem with the city of Detroit is that they are not solving any of their problems. They are keeping high tax rates and are continuing to spend more money than they take in. Taxes need to be cut and government needs to be reduced in size and made more efficient. The city should encourage responsibility. Instead of throwing money at all of its problems, Detroit needs better leadership. Corrupt politicians have failed the city for years. It needs its councilmen to step up to the plate and solve its problems.
A federal bailout wouldn’t be the kind of help Detroit really needs. It would take money from taxpaying citizens and then give it to the most fiscally irresponsible city in the country. It would also encourage the same tax and spend policies that Detroit has used in its past. The heavy spending Keynesian policies Detroit used made the city collapse. Detroit could recover quickly, if they reversed their harmful and irresponsible fiscal policies. The bankruptcy of Detroit is a warning to the rest of America. If you don’t keep up with your finances, they will eventually catch up to you.
Sound familiar?
And they want all of your personal information and medical records….I think not!
Government agents acting without authorization conducted dozens of undercover investigations of illegal tobacco sales, misused some of $162 million in profits from the stings and lost track of at least 420 million cigarettes, the Justice Department’s inspector general said Wednesday.
In one case, agents for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives sold $15 million in cigarettes and later turned over $4.9 million in profits from the sales to a confidential informant — even though the agency did not properly account for the transaction.
The ATF’s newly-appointed director, B. Todd Jones, said the audit covered only selected, “historical” ATF investigations between 2006 and 2011, and said the agency had tightened its internal guidelines since then.
The audit described widespread lack of ATF oversight and inadequate paperwork in the agency’s “churning investigations,” undercover operations that use proceeds from illicit cigarette sales to pay for the ATF’s costs. The audit came as a new blow to a beleaguered agency still reeling from congressional inquiries into the ATF’s flawed handling of the Operation Fast and Furious weapons tracking probes in Mexico.
