Well... I Support Trump, but frankly I never did, nor will I watch Rosanne!

Bill Gates made a fortune

Obama made a fortune.

Trump inherited a fortune. And then didn't make anything of it. He's a loser. Just like the OP.

Fine. Bill conned a programmer and got rich, how did Obama "make his fortune"?

Frankly I was disappointed in my fellow Americans when they didn't mob the field and burn her at the stake for fucking up the national Anthem.

I saw her since the get-go, Bar. Never digested her. Then she became Arnold. Wondered a lot why, and felt sorry for Tom.

Wrote books IIRC. Then gave speeches. The lecture circuit is kind to prominent ex-pols.

As for Bill... I matured somewhat during the BillGates.Is.Satan era, but I did like his and Paul's versions of BASIC. Those rumors about Gary Kildall fucking off were false BTW. But yeah, Gates got rich via VERY unsavory, quasi-legal business practices. Jobs was a scumbag too. Adam Osbourne was okay.

The most pathetic thing is that he fails to acknowledge that ACCESS to health care isn't the same thing AS health care. If no one accepts your insurance, you got nothin'. If you can't afford the co-pay, you can't use the insurance even if you find someone to accept it.

The whole thing is a PR game that the numbers don't support.

The idea of cost vs. benefit escapes him and the rest of the Romneycare fan club.

Like I said, a rolling chassis is better than no car right? As long as he's spending other peoples money 500 million bucks for that 500 dollar Honda Civic shell is a GREAT deal!!! Especially if the oh so noble Democrats get 499.9 million to shove in their pockets.

Of course...HE would never pay that much if it had to come out of his bank account.

To the tune of 40 million?

I thought gates bought Dos for 25k fully knowing it's worth loads more.

You're free to google-up the details. I don't really care. I didn't vote for him.

From Wikipedia on 86-DOS:

Microsoft purchased a non-exclusive license for 86-DOS from Seattle Computer Products[7] in December 1980 for $25,000.[citation needed] In May 1981, it hired [86-DOS developer] Tim Paterson to port the system to the IBM PC,[1] which used the slower and less expensive Intel 8088 processor and had its own specific family of peripherals. IBM watched the developments daily,[1] submitting over 300 change requests before it accepted the product and wrote the user manual for it.

In July 1981, a month before the PC's release, Microsoft purchased all rights to 86-DOS from SCP for $50,000.[1][8][9]

No mention of "at gunpoint". That came later, with MS's license demands.

Do you think the price we paid for RomneyCare (almost 5x what universal HC should cost) disproportionately at the expense of the working/middle class was a good deal for the relatively small number of extra insurance coverage that it provided??

Woah... stop the presses. Is BB advocating for something anti-free market which is what's best for the people?

 

[cowslinger64]

Compared to 320 million...yea it is.

We paid for 320 million several times over....and we only got 16.9 million covered.....that's fucking pathetic. We paid nearly a 500% increase for a 6% increase in results.

No wonder you're a union parasite, you'd never make it in real world with math like that.

But it's from (D) so no shock you support it, if (D)'s started shipping people who don't support them off to "labor" camps never to be seen again you'd probably support that too.




You think paying numerous times what it should cost to cover 320million people and only getting 16.9 million covered is a good deal....noted.


And I'm the idiot....LFMAO

Hey I got a 98' civic parts car in the back of the shop, I'll sell it to you for 300,000 bucks!!! A car chassis is better than no car so that's a great deal right???

You're a dumbshit. No one ever said that ACA was perfect... and to minimize the effect that having health insurance for millions of people because of cost is just ridiculous. The fact is, those people had no choices, now they do. There will be people not having to go to the emergency room to get the very minimum in care, there will be people not suffering needlessly because of NO OPTION. IMO, you cannot put a price tag on that. Kids, old people, whomever will have care, preventative care and the peace of mind that when needed, they can see their doctor... Just like what you have with the VA. JUST like what a fuckin classless dick like you has.

ACA doesn't help me. I've had healthcare my entire adult life. But it helps MILLIONS of others.. which IMO is a good thing... Why don't you just take your fat ass back to Japan and let them support you, instead of MY tax dollars having to do so because you were too fucked up to handle the military. Remove yourself from the government teat, then you have some grounds to complain.

I love your republican thinking...Fuck you, I got mine!!!! Asshole.

I'm not an anarcho-capitalist advocate.....that's entirely your assumption/ascription buddy.

No one ever said that ACA was perfect...

But you did say it was a good deal and that what we paid was worth it.

You don't get any room to call others a dumbshit Mr.Paying several times MSRP of universal HC and only getting 6% of the population dog shit insurance for it is a good deal.

Or is it only a good deal when you're spending other peoples money???

Fuckin' degenerate.....

Why don't you just take your fat ass back to Japan and let them support you,

Racist much??

instead of MY tax dollars having to do so because you were too fucked up to handle the military. Remove yourself from the government teat, then you have some grounds to complain.

You forgot to mention I got fucked up in combat...something your weak ass was too soft to even attempt.

I'm on the government teat?? How do you figure or will you scurry off from that question tail tucked like the RacistDownSouth, the other POG bitch who gets tough on the internet????

Not even close.

And I didn't claim I never did nor did I bash anyone for doing it....so not actually a hypocrite.

Now run along, the adults are talking.

Adult? You?


That's hilarious. You're a juvenile.


Whiny cunt too.


I'm not a racist, but if you don't like things here, just fuckin leave. It'll be cheaper for us honkies that have to pay taxes to support your selfish, self centered, hypocritical, I got mine fuck you ass.

You get absolutely no respect from me for serving, and that's something I've never said to someone that was in the military. I served my country during peace time, and proud of it. So your knocks mean absolutely nothing. Since then, I've gotten my own healthcare, my own job not needing gubmint assistance.. and you haven't. Loser.

Oh so we're back in fantasy land where you're just making shit up again.

That's what I thought, totally not juvenile and extra mature.

You wouldn't know truth if it bit you in the fuckin' face.

And I wasn't the one crying....."YOU DO IT TOO!!! WEEW WOOO!!" ya hypocrite.
