Funny how our neighbors to the Right have been very quiet about the anniversary of Obamacare. Apparently more insurance companies have sang it's praises and millions more have signed on.

I remember all of the doomsayers were running around saying that the sky was falling, and here we are a year later, and it's thriving.

We have the lowest unemployment rate since 2008, the highest job creation in months in August, and the economy showing signs of lurching forward.

In my neighborhood, they just finished building a shopping mall and they are currently building a high-rise luxury apartment building.

Yeah, this president is sure a lousy leader.

It's hard to bitch about something that works.

It's not fully implemented in, and it's not working.

My insurance has gone up, despite what we were all told.

Oh, and those phony unemployment numbers ? Nice try, SGG. Lowest job participation rate in 25 years is what the headline SHOULD read.

New shopping malls ? As I drive around town, there are countless strip malls which had been full of busy shops for decades which all stand vacant. Not just 1 area of a depressed part of town, but all around the city.

Lousy only scratches the surface of how bad this President is for this country

Hope for change, fast.

Delusional much?
Try to get out or your own backyard, see how dismal the rest of the country has become.

Your thinking that because your ins. went up that it means the ACA is not working is, well, telling.

Not only have they built a new shopping mall within the last 2 years, and in addition to the high rise apartment building, they've built a Longhorn and Olive Garden restaurants.

Which means jobs. It seems like the rich folk got tired of playing the waiting game and decided to invest their billions to see what happens. Hey, you guys were right after all, the Trickle Down theory does actually work. Well, someone is making money, not me, but somebody.

Funny, somebody must be lying because those restaurants are opening just as the holidays are going to hit. And the malls have people buying shit they don't need. My niece's husband is a plumber, and he's been busy. The building complex where I live is hiring staff, plus they've been renovating the grounds over the last year and a half. At my job, it's the busiest it's been all year, since Labor Day, damn near everyday.

To hear you tell it, it's all an illusion. A Big Lie. A Jedi Mind Trick.

O-care is alive, well and thriving in Kentucky (where it's known as Kynect).
Kentucky is one of the few states where the governor actually did his research and found that it has had a positive effect on the state's economy.

If your insurance has gone up, perhaps you live in a state where the governor has rejected O-care and Medicaid expansion, driving the cost of insurance up. Have you petitioned your government to address your grievance? Try that approach, it may help drive down costs.

Oh yeah, why didn't I think of that! That's what I should do, tour the country and ask folks "How you doing?" Gee, I bow down to your greatness and forethought. Hey, you know what, I should videotape it. Then I could post the results on Youtube and launch a career as a Documentary Filmmaker. Make millions and be a quiz question on Jeopardy.

Who is Shinygoodguy?

Ahhhhh, I would like to know the drugs you're on. Haven't you heard the latest, even Detroit is coming back from the dead.

Funny though, how you're cheering for the doom and gloom in this country.
