I promise you, I understand how flawed Obamacare is. But 1-year extensions for annual benefit caps are completely meaningless, and not examples of these "flaws".
It's a fucking awful law.
But that doesn't justify believing everything you hear about it. It's a matter of critical thinking.
Quick question Doc. You keep saying it's an awful law, but then you are for the second time in four days defending it's validity, so is it awful or not, Doc? It seems to me as if you are defending it not deriding it. My critical thinking skills are just fine, but with all due respect Doc, you sound very conflicted at the moment.
I feel like I've made my position clear, but I'll try to explain it.
What you are considering "defending the law's validity" is, actually me "defending" being honest.
I think that Obamacare will do almost nothing to solve any of the healthcare issues in this country. I think it's a giveaway to insurance companies and Big Pharma, and it's a corporate whore law written by a corporate whore Congress and and a corporate whore President.
But I feel justified in my dislike of Obamacare because I actually understand it - at least conversationally - and I have little tolerance for bullshit and those who swallow it, even if I agree with them in a more overall sense.
Obamacare isn't the end of the world. It's not going to destroy the economy, it's not going to destroy the insurance industry, it's not going to make you lose your insurance.
It's just not really going to solve anything - and it's going to cost a lot of money. Those are legitimate reasons to dislike Obamacare.
You don't need to lie about it.
Whoa, who said I was lying?
You are continually correcting people on Obamacare, then right out of the blue, you throw at them "actual" facts about the law that they seemingly didn't know. That kind of behavior indicates to me that you are defending it. Honesty, yeah, you want people to be honest about the law. That kind of language is defensive, not suggestive.
To me, you are suddenly changing positions when questioned on the subject. And to be honest, I highly doubt you took the time to read through all 2,700 pages of that law from first page to last. It takes more than a conversational knowledge of the law to to keep people honest about it.
