The Republicans' Long-Awaited Obamacare Replacement Has a Splashy New Website That Tells Us Nothing
https://abetterhealthcareplan.co…
Imagine a new path forward. A health insurance that provides more choices and better care at lower costs. A system that puts patients and doctors in charge, provides peace of mind to people with preexisting conditions, and paves the way for new cures by eliminating senseless regulation. House Republicans have a plan to get there, without disrupting existing coverage, giving your family the healthcare it deserves.

- just have to pass it to see whats in it... it cant be replaced with a substitute because there is nothing good to replace it with. chasing a philsopher stonedeathboy
- To "see what's in it" there has to be something there i.e. an alternative healthcare Act. You can't have a policy limbo when lives are at stakelowimpakt
- lives are always at stake, that is life. now whos interests or imaginary interests in what stakes has more relevance for the little pictures and timedeathboy
- we have never been so scared of death before. lifestyle has made us soft. hell ppl spend $$$ on vets just to keep a loved pet shitting itself an extra yeardeathboy
- i take it back a policy they can create is places for ppl to die with dignity when ever they please. let that be a service and industry. change how we view dethdeathboy
- but they dont even have to create it. just allow it and the market will create it. wanna kill yourself w/ family finding u, dont want to grow old in a homedeathboy
- be nice to bring some dignity back to death in old age as well to the living that cant cope through adversity or genetics.deathboy
- and it would ave a ton of money on healthcare costs. but the idea probably bothers peopledeathboy
- healthcare is not just for preventing old people dying e.g. the healthcare system keeps people healthy and working longerlowimpakt
- lol deathboy, good luck passing any form of assisted dying laws in the US besides the death penalty.BuddhaHat
- Imagine a future where the doctors who've been ripping you off for years just got served an even bigger opportunity...see_thru
- the majority of cost comes from the elderly and to stave off death incases where it most likely buying a little time. but yea unlikely to tackle that elephantdeathboy
- the majority of ppl probably view death like the uber religious right views homosexuality and any talk of such things is considered sinfuldeathboy
- as for doctors ripping anyone off theyre not involved. they don't set the prices. regulations insurances and other costs likely give incentives to operate underdeathboy
- local monopolies that are anything but efficient and ran by bookkeepers finding ways to maximize profits and gains. check out surgery center OK. are the majoritdeathboy
- y of any of those costs unbearable? many are in the area of a cost of a used car. which is a burden we all seem to be able to live with. hell every year SS-meddeathboy
- icare take in about 5k a yr on a 35k salary. That is money that can easily pay for rainy day healthcare in majority of cases not involved in elderly-detrimentaldeathboy

- Trump won because Hillary was only a brand name with no real base making her a weak candidatemoldero
- Trump supporters (not necessarily his voters) are dumb as fuck, it's being proved more and more every day.moldero
- Trump won because a shit ton of Registered Democrats were sick and tired of being lied to and hated their representation.vero_vandal
- So much so, they voted a wingnut like DJT into the White House, because they have ZERO FAITH in Democrats.vero_vandal
- thanks, you just proved my point.moldero
- Granted, DJT will more than likely turn out to be the same fucking clown that BHO turned out to be, so there you go. Unless he gets lucky.vero_vandal
- BTW, who in the fuck represents the Dems now? The DNC has been shattered into tiny shards of fragments. Who Bernie?vero_vandal
- Yuri_Von_Drake_ Cum_Clothutopian

The Clinton Foundation Shuts Down Clinton Global Initiative
http://observer.com/2017/01/the-…On January 12, the Clinton Foundation received more bad news: a WARN notice was filed with the New York Department of Labor. The main office of the Clinton Global Initiative in New York City would be closing, laying off 22 employees.
WikiLeaks revealed several criticisms of the Clinton Foundation were true, as pay-to-play schemes and the foundation’s corrupt management were exposed.
The Clinton Foundation‘s downward trajectory ever since since Hillary Clinton’s election loss provides further testimony to claims that the organization was built on greed and the lust for power and wealth—not charity.

Russia has a compromising video of Trump having sex with prostitutes...
How is this news?
The only possible surprise I can imagine it will have: "What?? less than 15 prostitutes at the same time??"

Liberals rejoice in another win as, Ringling Bros. shut down.
Ringling Bros. cited the loss of their elephant act as one reason for their closure. The reason Ringling Bros. may have had to stop their elephant act was due to the fact that PETA and liberal activists have targeted them for it.
http://www.npr.org/sections/thet…- Wait, I thought everything that happens anywhere is now a direct result of Trump being elected. Stock markets, weather, labor deals made years ago, etcmonospaced
- Well, good to know that the Republicans made one promise come true. This circus issue was probably one of the deepest party lines, before abortion.monospaced
- Next on the list: build a glorious, 10ft, 1,000 mile wall to keep out Mexicans.monospaced
- Nice attempt of Trump deflectionutopian
- A wall would close the back door for illegal border jumping criminals, and rapists from Mexico, allowing real Mexicans to come in courteously through the front.omg
- What's a 'real Mexican' omg? And can you show us all where the 'front' of the US/Mexican border is?BuddhaHat
- Ok omg... and if Trump doesn't build the wall, you'll have to conclude he actually wants illegal immigrants here, because that's what you did with everyone elsemonospaced
- and really, he was just bullshit lying to you the whole time, and not only did you buy it hook, line and sinker, you're STILL here preaching about it long aftermonospaced
- ... after Trump gave up on it himself because he realized how fucking stupid it sounded.monospaced
- What is the problem with folks who can't tell real from fake. pfft. The front door towards becoming a US citizen begins here: https://www.uscis.go…omg
- Other than people from Mexico, the only ones opposing the wall are people who do not care about needed security for Americans.omg
- Got it. So, for YOU, if Trump doesn't build the wall, he's undeniably "opposed" to it, and security. Oh omg, prayers for your children who will inherit your dnamonospaced
- The only reason the wall will not get built would be opposing environmentalists at this point.omg
- Really, THAT'S what you're going with? You're hilarious, and it's tragic.monospaced

Speaking of the circus...the grand carnival barker himself in the flesh Trump...Presidential press conferences are the new reality show. Or perhaps the new circus.
Welcome to the new regime.
Trump is officially vilifying the free press, calling it “fake news” for reporting a story that was not fawning to him. Tyrants do that, presidents don’t.
We are in for four very long years unless Republicans in Congress finally say enough and impeach and prosecute him for nepotism, treason ( and a myriad of other offenses that I’m sure he’ll commit). That is, if he doesn’t reduce the entire planet to radioactive slag in a temper tantrum.

P.T. Barnum Makes Trump Look Like a Clown
Donald Trump has compared himself to the legendary American showman, but he has more in common with items found in Barnum’s museum than his incredible political legacy.

Trump's Shouty and Insane Press Conference Reminded Russians of...Putin
"Well, now the U.S. also has a president who never answers a direct question and is rude to journalists," tweeted opposition activist Tikhon Dzyadko.
Congratulations, US media! You've just covered your first press conference of an authoritarian leader with a massive ego and a deep disdain for your trade and everything you hold dear. We, in Russia, have been doing it for 12 years now— with a short hiatus when our leader wasn’t technically our leader — so quite a few things during Donald Trump's press conference rang my bells.
