Rant & Raves for Friday, August 8, 2014

Here’s to hoping that Obama will be released of his duties or may I say the lack of. The USA will become a much better country once him and his family vacates the American People’s White House. Here’s to prayers being answered. God bless the USA.

The government should have regulated insurance companies and not tell individuals they had to get health insurance. The biggest statement I’ve heard in defense of Obamacare is affordability. So tell insurance companies they have to sell according to ability to pay and can’t refuse because of a preexisting conditions.

To the absolute idiot in town. Insurance companies don’t just sit in a meeting and come up with some arbitrary monetary premium level. The cost of insurance is based on “the cost” or rendering the service, and then injecting a margin that will cover overhead.  

When Obama changes all the rules, covering all pre-exiting conditions, covering millions that just don’t have the means of paying, having ridiculous reimbursements for professions that are 30 years old before starting a practice and rolling out the worst health-care program in history; I’m telling you it’s incompetent! And yes, if you don’t think Jimmy Carter was incompetent; you need to read a fairly recent history book!

To the ranter concerning Obamacare, you are correct that the insurance companies raise the rates. However if you think Obama is not responsible for this happening, then maybe it is your IQ that is 40.

Just a thought. Nixon was forced to resign for his part in Watergate while Demos continue to make excuses for Obama for his part in cover-ups which are much worse than Watergate. Just my opinion.  

I agree with the person that said the current stadium should go to both middle schools. VSU can build their own! It would be a disappointment to see VCS sell out property to VSU when both of our middle schools can use it!

The Lowndes BOE posted an application for kids to go to another school for one week. Guess was so their friends were the only ones who could apply. Anyone else who applied were denied. Something sounds fishy.

Technological improvements to public communications promote human understanding? Like guns are only used lawfully, and drugs are only taken under doctor supervision. For each legitimate user there are just as many abusers. i.e. porn, armed robbers, meth heads, etc.)
