Zone1 What "progressive" policies have turned out well in the past 50 years?

[Greenbeard]

since obamacare our rates have almost tripled and the coverage has gone down,,

and why is it you stupid fucks keep claiming shit about yourselves that can never be proven and expect us to believe you??

 

[AHZ]

thats called a freeloader,, and a failure as a parent if his adult children need him to pay for them,,

maybe so. but should victims of bad parenting starve?

 

[progressive hunter]

I’d say that’s OK temporarily, but what about “kids” in their 30s still living with Mommy and Daddy. There’s more involved than just pitching in with rent. An important part of growing up is learning to budget for rent, food, etc.; doing one’s own laundry, going grocery shopping and preparing meals, buying household stuff, paying the electric and water bills, and so on.

it would be a case by case basis,,
in italy its a normal thing to see,, family farmers also have children at home not to mention the amish,,

except my claim is the same as millions of others opposed to the ACA,,

Thanks, but abbreviations, acronyms and titles are not substitutes for policies, nor do they indicate whether they are "progressive" or cost-beneficial.

Why can’t they get a job, a couple of roommates, and buy mac-n-cheese, fish sticks, cheap canned fruit and veggies, some eggs, and cereal and milk?

We aren’t talking about 6 year olds. We are talking about 26 year olds.

 

[Moonglow]

Women suffrage.

 

[Winco]

they sure do like teaching adult sexual behavior to children,,

I knew you'd try to go there.

Sure, a few fucking nut-job liberal teachers, I despise them.
But it's certainly not a norm nor in the curriculum.

That’s exactly what my brother did! They rented a four-bedroom townhouse.

Must be a guy thing. I rented a studio in a marginal apartment building. And lived off the stuff I mentioned - macNcheese, fish sticks, Banquet TV dinners for $1 each, canned goods, cereal and milk. When you’re young, you can endure more.
