I'm far more inclined to believe the government is playing me rather than 'big business'. Specifically I believe my XOM stock is a safer, more conservative and potentially a far more profitable investment than the amount the fed is deducting from EVERY paycheck, I've EVER received with a current zero balance but a promise THEY will begin paying returns at an age and amount THEY will decide and change in the future.

Of course if I don't make it to THEIR movable finish line my investment is zero.
I didn't think it needed to be said that the government is playing us. It is a Given but it is NOT a Democrat or Republican Issue. You are getting it from both ends.

Joey, the only thing you know about the Affordable Care Act are the false right-wing talking points you've been taught to repeat. The cartoon you posted is full of false shiat talking points from 2009, and has nothing to do with what was actually passed and what is in effect now.

There are no tax raises. There are no "death panels". There is no "delayed treatment".

Name three good - no, great - life-saving things that directly have affected and help people, that the act has already done. If you have any ability to have objective thought at all, you'll be able to do this.
