Unemployment rate is not a strong measure of the economy. Neither is job growth in industries soon to be dominated by the robots.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

Trump is not responsible for my company treating me like shit. Lol. I have multiple jobs ready for me at any moment, but I have money saved up, so I'm gonna chill out for a month and I even have the option to maybe pursue leaving California thanks to the high job supply.zombie wrote:but you're not doing so well, either, in these years under trump, by your own admission.Jason wrote:No. I promise you I tried to like Obama.

well, then we need to talk about why aca was so bad to you. and was good for others, like dream for instance, if i recall. and what just dismantling that and not putting something else together in it's place means for people too.Jason wrote:Trump is not responsible for my company treating me like shit.

ACA nearly killed me because I was barely being treated with my first blood clot and nobody knew what the issue was, yet. This was less than three weeks before it switched to ACA. When it switched to ACA, I no longer had the ability to choose a doctor or hospital. I was essentially assigned those things by ACA and I received terrible care under it. It took them YEARS to find out my issue was genetic. Years... Yet, the service I received in the 2-3 weeks before ACA, records show they discovered my genetic condition, but my new service providers apparently never looked at their findings. Absolute incompetence and I had no say in where I could get treated.


Re: Random Political Comments
is that incompetence with who you had to deal with, on a local level, or on the aca at a nationwide level? was there something written into the care act that forbade those providers to look into your condition and what others had found out about it?Jason wrote:Oh, I see what you meant by "doing well".zombie wrote:well, then we need to talk about why aca was so bad to you. and was good for others, like dream for instance, if i recall. and what just dismantling that and not putting something else together in it's place means for people too.Jason wrote:Trump is not responsible for my company treating me like shit.

Re: Random Political Comments
also, if you'd rather not get into this, just let me know. but that's what you said was his big fault and why he's trash.
we could talk about the race and gender wars and what effect trump has had, to that end. has it actually been a positive? or on what the view of america under trump is, to the rest of the world? is that favorable? cause it doesn't seem to be.

Werd. Unemployment sure doesn't do a headcount of the homeless either. Riverside area along has boomed in the homeless on the streets market in the last couple years alone.Headhunter wrote:Unemployment rate is not a strong measure of the economy.

The providers were not good, and the care I was receiving prior to that was probably excellent. Where ACA failed was not allowing me to choose where I could get care.zombie wrote: is that incompetence with who you had to deal with, on a local level, or on the aca at a nationwide level? was there something written into the care act that forbade those providers to look into your condition and what others had found out about it?


Re: Random Political Comments
I think it'll reflect well on voting numbers in his second term. He is going to have a surge in black and hispanic voting, I can pretty much guarantee it. He'll certainly surpass his 2016 numbers.zombie wrote:also, if you'd rather not get into this, just let me know. but that's what you said was his big fault and why he's trash.

Re: Random Political Comments
fair. if you look at the impact of his policies on your life and wellbeing, then he's probably among the worst. but you're asking other people to feel the same way you do, without taking into account the difference in circumstance and in priorities. etc.Jason wrote:The providers were not good, and the care I was receiving prior to that was probably excellent.

his voting numbers will reflect how well he can sell himself to his base. if that's what makes a great president, he's a great president...Jason wrote:I think it'll reflect well on voting numbers in his second term.

Re: Random Political Comments
Because our healthcare sux ass and people like us are too stupid to not realize that good and costly friendly health care can be achieved in the greatest nation in the world. Conservatives just mention Venezuela for scare tactics and liberals dont do enough to keep their candidates focused on a very important issue that affects every American.

I’m just saying if his doctor was such a priority and there’s a private route why didn’t he go that way.

Re: Random Political Comments
Oh, I completely understood you. It's just that no matter what route you take, you are fucked. Unless you are like me, and have good insurance through work. I'm just bitching about how fucked up our priorities are. People, on the left and right, not really any specific group.
