Paul Krugman: "The Affordable Care Act is working"

[Oldiesfreak1854]

Obviously he hasn't been paying attention to the news lately.  Saying that Obamacare is working is like saying that 2+2=7 or that the sun rises in the west and sets in the east.

Or saying you should judge a party by its current views instead of the ones it held in 1860s.

I never said that.  The fact of the matter remains that Democrats have gone from being the party of slavery and Jim Crow to the party of job-killing taxes and abortion on demand.  The Democrats' policies of today are almost as repulsive to me as their policies of the 1860s.

Christ, just shut the hell up already.  Shouldn't you be in middle school right now?

Nope, sorry, I'm in college.  Nice try, though.

Being covered > not being covered. Is that so hard to understand?

If health insurance were that simple, our problems would have been solved during the stone age by ordinary citizens, without the need for government intervention.

Virtually every advanced country besides us have solved the problem in a more or less satisfactory way.

Sure, if rationing and long lines are "more or less satisfactory."
