I can honestly say I've never wanted to see someone suffer because they have a different view. 

If you are dumb enough to believe Trump's bs I have no sympathy if you suffer for this shitshow

He basically says "yeah we were just wasting everyone's time before and fucking around."

How can you say this and be so freaking enamored with Donald Trump? 

He's a con man extraordinaire.

Simple:

he is the biggest political outsider to ever become president. That's it.

I don't believe his BS but I still don't wish suffering on others

If you didn't believe his bs then you didn't vote for him. If so my sympathies if you have to suffer through these next 4 years like the majority of us.

I think that's about as close as you've come yet to admitting that you're a troll. I like it.

Sucks we're stuck with Obamacare for now. Eventually more insurance companies and people will pull out until the system collapses on itself. It's unsustainable. 

[Spirit]

The GOP needs to find a good book to read.

Almost a direct quote from Trump, but you're not a Trumpet.

Every now and then he states an obvious fact.

So then we go to single payer and the insurance companies thrive? I think they'll have to figure out a way to make this system work.

I hope more people do pull out because at this rate they are making too many stupid ones. Actually don't even put it in anymore and spare us all. I think this defeat calls for a pep rally.  Now we move on to tax reform where it will be ok for your tax dollars to benefit the members at Mar-A-Lago even more bigly.  MAGA!!!

Your application to Mar-A-Lago keeps getting turned down nugs, give it up. River View Golf Club in Santa Ana will take you. 

[Blarg]

So you are against ending the war in the mid East. Good to know you are the destabilization band wagon.

[tennischmp]

I agree

I have to assume from that statement that you've never been stuck in traffic, or behind an old person in line.

If Trump can do anything he can make many on the left drop any pretense of veneer and look like raging assholes I without even realizing they have. I mean the right doesn't need Trump to do this but still crazy to watch. 

[Angels#1Fan]

It's difficult to take the GOP seriously after the seven year "dog and pony show" they put on over the evil, horrible, disastrous, etc. ACA that they promised to repeal.

They couldn't even bring it to a vote even though they voted 60 something times to repeal the law when they knew it didn't matter but when they got the power to actually do it they crumbled.

Trump says it's the Democrats fault. lol

[Stradling]

So reading everything here from the libs, I am only assuming that Trump failed at repealing ACA and even though he has 3.75 years left (assuming he doesn't quick, get impeached or something else) he won't be able to try to repeal it again?  Is that what happened?  Or is this something that the right can revise and come back and give it another go?  I honestly don't know, but I would assume that they could circle the wagons again and come up with something more agreeable, right?  When I ask this I don't want a "if they had 7 years and couldn't figure it out, what makes you think they can figure it out in the next few years", I am looking for, can they revise their plan and try again?

[Blarg]

Yes. All laws are revocable.

Quick?  Kidding, don't ban me from In N Out. 

In reality he has 1.75 years left, but more like 1 year left.  Because if change/progress isn't made, then in the next congress/senate elections, the Pubs are going to get slaughtered by the overspending Dems. 

But the problem is, looking at 2015, 1/3 of our budget is spent on Health, with another 1/3 spent on SS and unemployment.  And with the system we have now, of guaranteeing insurers of losses, which might be in the last year or two of existing.  As I've been saying since day one.  I'll write you a check right now for $1000.  Guarantee, that you will give me a check back that is blank and good. 

The short term look.  F you Trump.  We win.  The long term look.  Health insurance obligations is continuing to grow, and it's already 1/3 of our budget.  What the F happens in the future.  But in California.  F the future.

Your numbers aren't quite right. From the link you provided:

Mandatory spending makes up nearly two-thirds of the total federal budget. Social Security alone comprises more than a third of mandatory spending and around 23 percent of the total federal budget. Medicare makes up an additional 23 percent of mandatory spending and 15 percent of the total federal budget.

Looking at it closer.  You are right.  it's not 1/3.

It's more of 27% of our entire budget.
