Porn sites must have government health warning in Texas from September 1st::Just when we didn’t think the state of Texas could get any more wacko on tech policy, this latest bill really suggests otherwise. House Bill 1181 is an age verification measure that is similar to what we’ve seen in the state legislatures across other red U.S. states. You have an age verification proposal that is similar…
The party of small government sure does a lot of mommying.
I remember being VERY pissed about Obamacare requiring an individual having insurance by paying a for-profit company, else pay a penalty, because of the pro-corp “nanny state” implications, much like I despise legally-required auto insurance (without a government-funded baseline).
Yet here we are with “muh indivdulizm” republicans making the overreach far worse than Democrats ever would have.
Obamacare was invented by a Republican. It was done as a compromise because most Democrat legislators are right wing and don’t want to see public healthcare enacted in the US.
What an insane, ahistorical take lol
It’s basically true. The ACA drew a lot of support being compared to Massachusetts’ healthcare when Romney was governor. The individual mandate, which was the necessary compromise to get it passed, was first proposed by The Heritage Foundation.
You ever notice how the republicans can’t shut up about how much they hate Obamacare, but whenever they have enough seats to end it, they don’t? It’s because they secretly like it (because it’s their plan) but they just don’t want to give Obama or the other Democrats credit for passing it.
“basically true” that “all Dems wanted this instead of SP” because "all Dems are right wing??
No that is not “basically true” lmao
Why you put “all Dems are right wing” in quotes when what I said is that most are. Which is true. American politics are very far right of centre economically by the rest of the world’s standards.
You can’t backpedal from a lie by lying more lol
Except you’re wrong? Most democrats are economically very right. Its why they’re liberals and not leftists. The vast majority of US politics is right wing with the only difference being how much they hate minority groups.
US politics has people fucked up thinking reasonable policy is left.
