Title: SO, "guests"...how are you enjoying the new authoritarian DU?
Post by: BannedFromDU on October 11, 2013, 12:48:13 PM
Where you dare not mention that cACA is going to cost you a TON, lest you get shouted down by the brownshirts?

Where if you have misgivings about McAuliffe, trumad will rat you for a TOS violation?

How's that working for you guys?

Hathcock just pulled up the exchange for he and his wife. Expensive as hell. 10-20K deductibles. Our deductibles are only 500 bucks currently. **** the ACA.

The clueless middle- and lower-middle-class DUmmies, few though they may be, are finally recognizing the royal rat****ing perpetrated on them by the shiftless majority of DUmmies who won't work to be self sufficient. All this time they've been guaranteed that their rates will decrease or stay the same and now they see the hoax. When they complain, they're met with, "I thought you were a liberal. You should be glad to pay more so everyone ("everyone" meaning "I") can be covered!" Which goes once again to show that moonbats believe anyone with more money than themselves, no matter how little, are considered rich and therefore become fair game.

I love how they are advised that they must do a better job of budgeting their "earnings" so other DUmmies can get their "benefits".

     DUmmies, take note: this same thing will happen under single payer. Do you see that?

    Do you think single payer WOULDN'T make your taxes go up by AT LEAST the amount you're being required to pay now?

There are always going to be people, stupid people, that will live the hive mind. The evil democrat elites shamelessly prey upon those poor stupid people. There shall be no dissension, no thought other than the one thought, and any that do shall be punished. Orwell sure got it correct. Although not that far of a stretch as people are people. Always will be. the greater problem that mankind has now is that so many stupid people that would have been "Darwined" just 50 years ago thrive and bring the rest of us down.  In great measure we are victims of our own success.

The democrat party is all about diversity as long as everyone thinks the same.

They should love it. It's every liberal authoritarians (pardon the redundancy) dream.

So who's going to win the board? The "100% Dear Leader cultists" or the "Democrats aren't commie enough" kooks? (both sides are really the same, I know)

Place your bets.

That is horrible.  To even think that way is just full on stupid.  They have to be the one's that are "poor" and don't have to lose their money in this ponzi scheme.

I'm waiting for it to sink in that a multi millionare with four kids will have the same premium as a DUmmie with four kids making about $92K and, neither will get assistance.

I've noticed some real bad spellin' on DU lately
 
I don't know if y'all have noticed but there seems to be some really bad spellin' and some darn right awful bad grammar on DU lately.

I call it the "200 club". It's this sudden rash of anti-health care, anti-Obama, Anti-democrat postings that are wrapped up in little stories about personal experience. And they all seem to come from members who are hitting the 200s in their posts. ' I have this cousin's friend's sister who is going to have to pay thousands more in health care. Obama has really, really hurt them".

So I'd just like to say hello to that DU Troll who is quietly trying to manipulate the conversation on here. Hello and welcome to DU. We know you are here, we can smell your dirty little tricks a mile away. You think you are very smart but the twisted logic you use only works on the under-educated and the stupid.

This place is about sourcing facts. You never do that. Just an emotional tale of woe brought upon you by insuring the uninsured. Another family ripped apart by the evils of Obamacare. Another plea we shouldn't support the President based on some flimsy story about an Uncle's, sheep sheerer's nephew who has a friend whose life has been ruined because he now has to be insured. Always a low poster, a new member or, sometimes, a similar story with similar phrasing coming from several different posters over the course of a few days...and all with similar numbers of posts.

So, a pardon to new DUers who are here for excellent conversation. If you are in the 100-200 # of postings I am skeptical of you. There are trolls here who take great pleasure in trying to wreck things. As we weed them out by their terrible logic, and their lies you must pardon us as we get to know you. But please accept our welcome. We are thrilled to have you here and look forward to you sharing your knowledge and insight.

But there is mischief afoot. Luckily by fools. Fools who don't spel so good.

Happy Weekend everybody and a big welcome to all the new DUers this round of Washington craziness has brought us!

They've hit "SHUT UP!!!! You're saying things that aren't approved by our masters who tell us what to believe" mode.

Unless you buy "gold" or "platinum" level, you have nothing but catastrophic coverage.

For DUmpmonkeys, it's not even catastrophic coverage. That's generally believed to be a level of coverage that will save you from bankruptcy. A forty percent co-pay and $13K out of pocket will bankrupt most DUmmies. Not a problem though, since they can't possibly pay the bloated premiums.

That would include things like selling the new house you finally scrimped and saved a 20% down payment for over the years for your family, because now you can't make the payment on it, reducing the percentage of your check you had going into that retirement account because, hell, you really don't need to retire a couple of years early to spend more time with your spouse, putting off replacing that old clunker you been patching together with a new dependable ride, pulling your kid out of that private school you can barely afford but wanted because the public school is a snakepit. You know, frivolous shit like that which you really didn't deserve to begin with.

I blame it all on warning labels.

See, before warning labels, DUmmies and other stupid folk simply eliminated themselves, usually before puberty and often with entertaining results (fork in outlet, TV on card table, lawn darts, etc)

Now, thanks to warning labels, stupid people are living long enough to procreate, having stupid offspring, who in turn, have still more stupid offspring.

Most get elected to some political office somewhere...

Society as a whole put a great big damper on the magic that is Darwin.

Maybe sometime in a not too distant distopian future, mankind will make " 'Moran' Island" - a new reality show where "America's mostest stupidest" (tm)  are put together on an island that contains ample food, water, and shelter resources, as well as mounted cameras to catch all of the action. Unlike Survivor, there are no games, no host, and nobody ejected from the island because of audience voting. Its just an entertaining anthropological exercise to study how quickly they manage to destroy a potential Eden, and turn it into a crime ridden urban hellhole.

Free birth control is necessary due to the high deductibles and copayments. Who could afford to have a baby?

Pissed me off but good.
