This is exactly what Republicans were saying about Obama, and Bill Clinton, and every democrat president for years.
Dems controlled the White House and Senate for 2 years when Obama was first elected. You still have guns. They didn't take them away. The first amendment still exists, and there has been no significant push to repeal the second amendment.

This is a scare tactic. Democrats want to limit guns, they clearly don't want to "take away your guns" because they have had the chance, and did not do it.

Bernie's from Vermont, they have a lot of hunters there, the mainstream Dems always gave him shit for not being anti-gun

>>740561745
They tried to do that sort of thing after every shooting they could possibly exploit. It's not that they didn't do it, it's that they failed.

The problem is they didn't have the numbers when they had their best chance at getting away with it (after Scalia croaked) and when they did the supreme court and the undecided voters among those of us who enjoy firearms was sitting there reading over their shoulders. Trying to support the usual song and dance like Obama did in his second term would have torpedoed that second term.

You can have the White House and Congress, but if you don't have the Supreme Court you can't really do things like that. It's pretty much the main reason a lot of us gun nuts were worried about Hillary and the dems taking the whole show. Then they could have slapped in pretty much anyone they wanted in the SC and done whatever they wanted.

>>740560537
You're an idiot.

Obamacare drastically increased the taxes on people who were barely making it in the first place. Many CHOSE to not have coverage because they could not afford it. Now that coverage is mandatory, they can't even afford housing or food.

Only a moron would vote for something that harms the population in the way that Obamacare does.

>>740560537
until USA goes single payer and healthcare is made "not for profit", USA will turn into a giant shithole

>>740563197
the implication is that this will cost US consumer more for the same goods. This does not hurt the producer unless demand goes down.

This is a complicated concept and requires a modest understanding of economics but, almost no serious economist ever suggests that tariffs help the country imposing them. Almost always done at the insistence of producers in that imposing country. Tariffs on exports have been shown to create higher prices because of a lack of competitive pressure. This is stupid. Smart people understand and don't do this.

>>740561971
My employer pays three times more for less coverage, but he's the cheapass. Are all democrats bad at basic reading comprehension, or is it just you?
>>740562078
Things were better before ACA for me, that's my biggest concern. I don't give a shit about other people's healthcare, especially if it costs me that much extra. The Republicans do have better plans, the problem is that morons like John McCain won't let them implement anything. These assholes spent the last 8 years promising to repeal, even voting for it, now they bail when the chips are down. Fuck both parties.

>>740562204
Of course I keep things vague. I'm not giving you faggots my personal details. And your coverage is almost certainly at least partially subsidized by the federal government, larger employers don't get that. The most details you get are that my plan costs a shitload more, covers less, and I had to change doctors for my whole family. Meaning that literally every promise Obama made selling the ACA was broken.

>>740562407
It totally is, also the 5th amendment and that pesky due process bit. If you are an American citizen you have the right to keel and bear arms plain and simple. The only legal way to revoke someone's rights is due process which means you get your day in court. You get a conviction and you're at the mercy of the courts and lesser laws. This is why felons can't own guns.

The no fly list is shit. You can be put on it for no reason and instead of them taking you to court to get you on it you have to go to court to get OFF it last I read.

Everyone has some form of mental illness. Most mental illnesses are completely non-violent contrary to what you've probably been lead to believe. If you don't realize how this would turn out after seeing fucking acne of all things as a "pre-existing condition" on the GOP healthcare failure you need to sit down and think about how shitty politicians with a goal are.

Bernie did support gun control like the AWBs but as you said it was certainly much less of a campaign goal than with Hillary. Between the two of them I'd vote Bernie any day and I'm still pissed the Dems fucked him over like they did.

You don't care because, at the moment, you are not in that group. You assume that you will never be in that group - as do most people. Truthfully, you might not be.

I work in finance and have for 30 years. Long before ACA the primary cause of bankruptcy was and still is, medical expense. Let that sink in for a moment you selfish thoughtless bastard, someday, without adequate insurance, you could lose everything you have. If you think bankruptcy in these situations is something you can just blow off, think again. You will not buy a home if you don't already own one - if you do, good luck refinancing. You will pay more for car loans, you will be denied housing in some cases if you rent. In some industries, you will be barred from working. (Mortgage industry employees frequently have to become NMLS certified which, in most states, require a credit check). Yeah, it hasn't affected you, maybe won't ever, but it is a fool who lives for today and assumes nothing bad will every happen to them.

You think and act like a spoiled child. I blame your mother.

>Why do people choose to not vote themselves free shit?
Because some people are principled and would rather have personal choice and control over their own lives, instead of having the government wipe their ass all their lives. Next question.

>Why

Because socialism and communism never worked

health care is neither

how do you feel about the FDA, the FAA, or NTSB?

> you're still not insured, but at least you're not being fined for it
> you're no longer insured, but your premiums were so high that you couldn't use it so it's a moot point

Why don't you post some more about how you don't understand percentages or nuance?

Oh, son. You've been listening to the wrong people. Social Security is socialism, Medicare is socialism, Anti monopoly laws are socialism.

If you were living under a pure capitalistic system, you would be working seven days a week and would never need to worry about health care because it would be far out of your reach.

Please feel free to read about robber barons and what they did to America first.

The people insured under Obamacare largely dont want the insurance but are forced to have it

I dont understand this democrat meme of
>but you'll lose your insurance!
They clearly dont fucking want it you retards, theyre being forced to buy it or get fined.

i love people who don't live in america yet are so devoted to american politics yet at the same time imply that we aren't THE superpower in the world.

because they would rather go to the emergency room and skip out on the bill.

>Health care is neither

Not having health insurance is a criminal activity.

Right, if you actually calculate it and not just rely on the picture telling you the wrong thing.

This is how that side works. "We said it so it must be true".

Product was $100. We want %20 tax.
Ok. Here.. buy the product for $120 and we'll pay the %20 tax.
%20 of $120 is $24.
Therefore in the end, they are paying taxes and ending up with less money ($96) in the pocket. So the other side, who you 'outsmarted' by charging more, still came out on top.

poor white ppl mean, and the answer is we r better and u like brownies and blacks we dont want to be on welfare and have the govt wipe our asses, we want to be in control of our own business, and thats y whites r better and make better nations......we also have a mental illness of self loathing and bastardizing our culture. slaveryfor example whites practiced it very little are the only race to put an end to it, yet ironically r the only race blamed
