You just sit there grasping that body bag and wait with all the anxiety you can muster out of that scrawny body.

I find it weird that your side, seemingly so adept and knowledgeable at top level politics, thinks Trump, the POTUS (and Chief Executive) is spending every waking hour interviewing face to face. It's almost as if none of you have any real corporate or even real world business experience at all. Am I wrong here? I don't think so. Cheer up though.....I think you're a pretty good egg overall.

This is what the Obama admin contributed to Obamacare. Great leadership. "You can't do it political, you just literally cannot do it. Transparent financing and also transparent spending. I mean, this bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes the bill dies. Okay? So it’s written to do that," Gruber said. "In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in, you made explicit healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really really critical to get for the thing to pass. Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not." If any American really believes that Obamacare is going to control costs, I've got some real estate in Whitewater, Arkansas I'd like to sell them.
