Vs. $2500 cheaper annually, insure every person at less cost? Were you around when that was being offered? I knew that was a lie the first time I heard it, but no way in hell did I realize it would be so fuked up to the extent of what developed from Obamacare.
I don't know where you have been for the last 8 years, but I will share a well-known secret that developed over that time. Things have been pretty tough over the past 8 years - welfare and food stamps have reached all time highs. So depressing, people just gave up on making a better life and resigned themselves to the fact we are leaving to our children a world worse than we found it. Obama brought real meaning to a welfare Cadillac.
And what were the better options when we voted against our own interest? I Can show you a bunch of miners who would disagree. And a hell of a lot of other people have taken a step backward over past 8 years. Where did I go wrong? What would have been my rewards going the other way politically?
I will give you a hundred dollars if you will go into a beer joint in Southern WV and repeat that idiocy. Just since Trump has been in office, one of the larger mine has received 3 year contract, and 2-3 other small mines have gone back to work. Those families that are getting to work in the industry a few more years are very grateful for someone who was not intentionally taking their family payroll from them.
Damn, seemingly intelligent posters still do not understand our election system requires ELECTORIAL Votes. We are in a Republic. The Democracy form was turned down by a group of people you have studied about. Majority plus one would be absolutely a terrible form of government for the US with 50 independent states.3M more people voted for her than they did Trump ... it does indeed show more people wanted her than him. There's no other way to spin it. Do you think there weren't suppressed voting of Democrats where they are significantly outnumbered? It goes both ways on that.
And however many it was that wanted somebody other than her ... add 3M and that's the number of people that wanted somebody other than Trump.
Why I championed Kasich, neither Trump nor Hillary were going to bridge the divide.
Here is the proof that miners vote against their own best interest.

Let me help you out on that one.....The moron was stuck in the basement of Boreman South.
With legions of Mitch McConnells and Chuck Schumers (and their cronies) buried in their DC ivory towers, Washington is going to have to get nuked before that can ever happen.......
