Obama Names Video Games as Health Concern in Speech to A.M.A.

People would have healthcare.....

Clearly when the government starts shifting around huge amounts of funding it happens within a totally isolated bubble that does not effect the system that the money is connected to.

Our health care system would suck ass, things would be written off as 'unnecessary' (you should hear some of the horror stories I've got from Canada, France, England, Germany, and many, many more.  Especially Cuba), spending would spiral even more out of control, and it would give Obama another excuse to dip his hand into corporations.

Well, he brought that reputation on himself. I never expected him to, but there are a lot of idiots who fell for it...

Oh, I knew he was being sarcastic.  I just can't refrain from an Al Gore dig, especially with that setup. 

They revealed in a statement that the two of them entered the country illegally.

Not only that, but all four global temperature records show no warming trend and relatively stable temperatures for the last decade.

It's gotten really hard to ignore, and later hide, these last ten years.

The sad thing is that the media has been going back and forth between "global cooling" and "global warming" since at least 1850.  (And there are plenty of archived newspapers for anyone interested in verifying that for themselves). They've reversed positions so many times it'd make your head spin. In the end it's all about selling their product.

The sayings "Fool me once" and "Those who do not learn from history" come to mind.

Oh, and I'd like to add my standard disclaimer that, judging from the geological records, the earth is preparing to go back into another 100,000 year ice age in the next 1,000-2,000 years. Perhaps we should be looking for ways to *cause* global warming, not prevent it.

Because any implementation by our current government would be a complete clusterfuck. It would be burdened by our issues with medical malpractice. The bureaucracy that would pop up around it would be a nightmare. The massive number of people who are activly trying to kill themselves would bankrupt the system

Any good vision would get covered in riders, everyone would try to take their pound of flesh from the legislation, and the end product would be.... bad.

TL;DR we have to many unhealthy people to make it effective unless the government begins taxing and regulating a ton of things that many people don't want to be regulated.
