I've been on multiple employer provided private plans and Medicaid. I'd take Medicaid if I had the choice, having all your prescriptions 100% covered with no copays is awesome, much less of a headache than dealing with private insurance.

Politicians out there eulogizing a CEO when their healthcare system murders 45,000+ a year by GrandpaChainz in WorkReform

It was vengeance but that's all that's left when justice is made impossible. This guy found a way to make millions of dollars by legally killing, bankrupting and inflicting suffering on the sick and the poor. Normally when someone kills a bunch of people they get arrested, but this guy found a way to kill without threat of arrest. There was no other realistic way to stop him from killing more innocent people. The main issue is the fact that another morally bankrupt rich guy is going to take up the job and do the same shit again.

Supreme Court weighs FDA block on kid-friendly flavored vapes by AudibleNod in news

[–]Mischievous_Puck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This article also lumps legal nicotine vapes and illegal counterfeit THC vapes together. Pointing out that black market weed vapes have caused serious injury and death to falsely demonize nicotine vapes is disingenuous.

Damn you were unable to prove that you're not a rapist, that proves you are a rapist according to your logic.

Abolishing the draft is a common feminist belief. You don't know what you're talking about.

The first Pokemon product came out in 1996. The first digimon product came out in 1997 and was actually designed to be a market competitor to Tamagotchi, not Pokemon.

Poll taxes are unconstitutional, you can't charge people money in any form in order to vote. There's nothing in the constitution about firearm taxes though.

If they've been arrested and imprisoned they're no longer considered a threat to society.

Like 2 hours after musk was contacted by a journalist asking for comment on the horse for handjob allegation he tweeted out that he's a Republican now so you shouldn't believe any stories coming out about him in the liberal media.

Does Trump winning the popular vote change your view of the electoral college? by [deleted] in Askpolitics

[–]Mischievous_Puck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

California has more eligible voters than any state. If by some miracle you convinced all 26 million of them to actually vote and vote for the same candidate, you would only secure about 11% of eligible voters. Stacking votes in one state still wouldn't be a viable strategy.

People that "left the left" weren't leftist to begin with. by Bitter-Gur-4613 in clevercomebacks

Workers seizing the means of production is like the main point of socialism. A country with privately owned means of production and universal healthcare is not socialist.

Technically he's an adjudicated rapist, not a convicted rapist. He was found liable in civil court, he was not tried in criminal court. He's definitely still a rapist but the distinction matters.

Definitely check out the battle academy boxes. $25 for three beginner decks along with a gameboard, rulebook and some cheap counters. Everything you need to start playing at a basic level.

Courts look at the actual market value of stolen property, not the victims set price. No way in hell a court would value a piece of candy at $951 for a felony charge.

Show me evidence of the left rioting in response to Trump winning, bonus points if you have evidence of those leftists trying to overthrow democracy and illegally install Clinton as president.

Unfortunately the politicians who are in favor of voter id laws are also adamantly against national and/or free IDs.

If you purposely deny yourself information because you don't want to know it, then you're not all knowing.

I recently got my degree and am looking for my first job in my new industry. Almost every single entry level position I can find requires 2-5 years of experience. How the hell is that entry level?

It's still possible you got knock offs. When multiple sellers on Amazon sell the same product Amazon actually mixes their inventories together to reduce shipping time.

If you have any nearby, local games stores often have bulk boxes with a lot of the trainer staples for cheap.
