QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Yay! Six percent fewer part-time employees have coverage because of ObamaCare! That’s quite an “achievement,” especially since the primary result of Barack Obama’s economic plans has been the wholesale conversion of full-time jobs to part-time positions. An America full of people who work hard, but don’t make enough money to take care of their needs, dependent on an insolvent corporatist program that will soon collapse into a single-payer black hole for their health care? What’s not to like, if you’re a dishonest socialist?

Let us pause once more to remember that President Barack Obama loudly, clearly, and repeatedly promised that nothing like this would ever happen, and anyone who (accurately) warned otherwise was a fearmonger who just wanted poor people to die. ObamaCare remains the biggest con job ever pulled on the American people, dwarfing Bernie Madoff’s financial misadventures by several orders of magnitude.

And the hell of it is, the people telling all these lies, jacking up insurance premiums across the land, and blowing health care plans to smithereens love to congratulate themselves on their compassion. They really care, you see… unless you’re one of the designated losers in their scheme to have the government pick winners. In that case, your travails count for nothing. Not only is your suffering meaningless, but they’ll attack you as a selfish counter-revolutionary for even daring to mention it. No American politician is so callous as a “compassionate” left-winger confronted by someone who got the fuzzy end of a Big Government lollipop.”
