..... Well, lets see, where to begin dismantling your snide ridicule of yet another post. We've had a Republican GA in NC since 2010 here as well. At that time the "Tea Bag" Republicans were flexing their strengths back then. All those promises they made of getting back to simple, small governance simply proved over the next 3 election cycles that they had no agenda other than going all the way with "trickle down"
tax cuts and allowing the blue collar tax payers, and moneys earmarked for highway construction and the NC public school system pay for their loss of revenue through the implementation of usage taxes. For example, now the common workers with 5-10 year old cars pay another 8-10% for car repairs, something that the wealthier tax payers don't experience driving new cars all year.
..... But, that put aside, they blocked all efforts to apply the key points of ACA in the state, like
competition of the carriers with the exchanges, picking up the very poorest citizens under the Medicaid expansion program, applying the penalty for not having ANY coverage, and strategically putting out "false TV advertisements" each month to completely confuse the citizens with THEIR promise to provide a much BETTER , LOW COSTING health plan ... which they never did, as you surely know. In
FACT, oh ******* breath ... as this is
HISTORY we're discussing here, not math, 64 times the Republicans, led by those Teas Baggers, made attempts to ******* the ACA. Not necessarily because it was a bad plan (as Mass. ACA plan was a Republican plan), but because the plan was sponsored by Democrats and Obama. Several times Republicans were invited (because they were the first with the ACA, Democrats elected to model the ACA after THEIR PLAN), to the meetings to set up the ACA and they ALL refused to attend the ACA meetings, mostly due to the Tea Baggers (sponsored by the mega bucks of the Koch Brothers), and some because they truly believed the Republicans could come up with a better plan than the Democrats.
..... So, the ACA moved forward without the Exchanges, without the Medicaid Expansion, with the lies Republicans were spreading about Obamacare, and without the state subsidies because REPUBLCANS (who held the NC-GA) wouldn't allow any of THAT. Afterall, their primary mission the next 6 years was to make Obama FAIL at all cost ...
to prove THEIR point that those voting for a black man in an unfair election, were going to pay for their disloyalty to the mighty white race ... ohhhh yes, it
WAS about RACE. If I could have a dollar for every racial slur I heard during Obama's first term campaign, I'd be on a white sand beach someplace sucking down native mai-tais and taking tarpon fishing trips. You see, oh "cumbreath", we don't have to
LIE like Trump or Republicans to simply provide the events of
HISTORY, do we? Unlike the Do-Nothing Republicans, who spent 6 years at holding hearings to discredit Obama and Clinton and getting NOTHING done for the voters who put them in office, Obama said he was going to install an affordable, national health plan that everyone could participate in ... what did the Republicans provide as an option? Just fucking up what others were trying to accomplish, and lying to their OWN constituents, as they are right now. So, those rate increases you show, I won't dispute ... I lived them, but I damn well know WHO caused them to happen ... you, however, are simply too ignorant (not naïve, as I know you better than that) to realize the party you pull for only has one interest in mind, cutting taxes for the wealthiest and swearing to God that those tax cuts will
"trickle down" ... never have, never will. Trump's been in office 1
1/2 years and has only managed to increase both the national debt
AND deficit spending ...
1.2 trillion of new National Debt and, cause the biggest scandal in the HISTORY (opps, there's that
FACT word again) of our country, and all you
ReTards can do is Lie, Deny, Redirect, and Obstruct.
..... And, to
you ... comes my
favorite part of respondng to
YOU,
H-H ...
