The sheer political incompetence of the Dems would be tragic if it weren't so entertaining.

However, it also means that power has been seized by people who largely represent ideals I see as anti-American, so it's still tragic, too.

Seph, fuck off. Please. Some of us know people for whom this could mean death. They can't afford to treat this like a petty dick-waving contest.

No you don't. It's a pathetic scare tactic. No one is dying in this country because they're uninsured.

"I don't know anyone personally so it doesn't exist."

I wish I could deny reality so easily. But when my best friend's fiancée loses his ability to treat his Crohn's Disease because "lol pre-existing condition" and starts to develop complications again, I'll be sure to tell him this is a pathetic scare tactic.

Fuck. Off.

Tell him to phone the drug company. 100% guarantee they twist the arm of the insurance company and he gets drug.

Happy to help your friend :)

You think he didn't already try that? My best friend is literally studying to be a pharmacist. Of course she tried to go with that option. They got told basically to screw themselves.

Man this topic is so mad and I love it.

That automatically means the decision was good. When in doubt, if it pisses off radical leftists then it's the right choice. That's how Trump's base all knew going to war in Syria was a terrible idea.

I'm worried that many of my friends are literally going to die because of this. Not wealthy enough to be allowed to live. Feasted upon by unshackled avarice. So this is about way more than flying some goddamn Ws.

... but they WON'T do that, Ulti.

And if they don't, we politically destroy them. I didn't vote for "no health care bill", I voted for a better health care bill. Health Savings Accounts covering preexisting is the way to go, I think.

That implies the people with those conditions have savings to put in an account.

Make charity care a federal law instead of state law. I have no problem with poor people getting free health care and it's been great here in Jersey. Obamacare's problem was that it ruined the middle class.

Was it the problem with the law, or was it because insurance companies are terrible and amoral?

Because the latter isn't changing, and it's actually going to be enabled more.

And before someone claims I want uninsured people for the lulz, I've read every page of Obamacare. It was written by insurance companies, for insurance companies, and completely inflated the cost of health care to unsustainable levels. That thing needed to be scrapped and rewritten for years.

Good thing we got rid of the public option that could have circumvented that problem, amirite?

Obamacare had some serious flaws that let insurance companies be horrible, but now we're letting them be just as if not more horrible and throwing our most vulnerable citizens to the companies' wolves.

I'm super in.

Any chance this can include opera too?

I'm not opposed to it, but I feel like most people, myself included will be less familiar with more traditional operas and therefore less likely to vote (I assume you mean stuff like Carmen), but then again stuff like Hamilton and Les Mis are technically operas (albeit not in the strictest sense) and I'm sure they'll get plenty of votes.

Hamilton is ??? but Les Mis is not afaik

I mean, can you actually answer the question of why you think the bill, which scored rather poorly with the CBO and is incredibly unpopular among likely voters, is a good thing, SephG? Like an actual well-reasoned response?

1. The CBO hasn't scored it yet
2. I don't care about its popularity. What's right is right.
3. Though imperfect, it seems that it will expand choice and lower premiums, which to me is more important than giving more people lousy insurance

Seph, I know you're smart, and business-minded. I refuse to believe you're naive enough to think #3 here is accurate.

IMO there just aren't enough payoff cards to make it work. You have Warfire Javelineer, Enigma Drake, and...? I guess some prowess guys? And as uncommons, the two main payoff cards aren't even guaranteed to be in the draft.

Can we talk a little about the whining regarding Colbert's rant?

Bitching about a joke involving Trump sucking off Putin as "homophobic" is supposed to be Tumblr's job, not the big tough conservatives that call anyone a "cuck" if they complain about anything.

Yeah that shit was so dumb. Whenever the left wants people fired over speech they're the first ones to cry foul. Don't pick and choose.

Did Colbert use a slur? Haven't watched it.

No, he had a string of insults that culminated in "your mouth is only good for being Putin's cock holster."

Which isn't homophobic, and is actually pretty funny. Entirely crude and unprofessional, but not marginalizing anyone.

1 for 1 in Amonkhet draft.

Valuable insights from one total draft so far:

-This is a very "normal" Limited environment. Without weird across-the-board mechanics like Energy, Revolt, or Delirium throwing the table for a loop, you can finally read signals more easily again. Also, it's a two-color format.
-Good red cards are really good. Bad ones are really bad.
-GB legendary is so hard to beat if you don't answer her immediately.
-Best decks seem to be UW Embalm, UB Control / Cycle, and GB counters-for-days. If you end up being the only person at the table in WB Zombies, go nuts.
-The ground gums up quickly, though I was playing control so that might just be an anecdote.
