The funniest thing about health care reform is this... Not only was the the “yes” vote highly partisan, the “no” vote was actually somewhat bi-partisan. Nearly a fifth of the people who voted against health care reform were Democrats. So the “Republican” side of the issue managed to convince a number on the “Democrat” side, but the Democrats convinced exactly zero Republicans.
We live in a world of accessible information. Quite frankly, if you’re too lazy to go look up the facts yourself you should probably make it a practice of just keeping your mouth shut. So when I hear people saying that this kind of narrow, one-party passage of major social legislation is par for the course.....eh not so much.
Just when we were convinced (hoaxed) by the mainstream media that the Stimulus Funds had created over 2 million jobs; according to the latest report from (CBO) Congressional Budget Office, we now learn that by the CBO's own confessions in the Stimulus Report these numbers are arrived at by nothing but guess work and hypothetical forecasting.
It also points out the fact that the form used to collect jobs data from ARRA Stimulus Funds Recipients does not ask for clarification concerning the fact of whether or not the job position would have continued as a result of the stimulus funds or not.
An example of the abusive reporting techniques used by the Congressional Budget Office came to light in January when it was revealed that the California State University system reported over 21,000 jobs saved, but admitted later that those jobs were never in jeopardy even without the Government Stimulus.
CBO has estimated the law’s impact on employment and economic output using a theoretical process which they term "evidence." But by the confessions made by the CBO throughout the report; this so-called evidence is nothing more than speculation at best. .
"Everybody Knows" If the Concrete Blonde version depresses you more, take it away
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich That's how it goes Everybody knows Everybody knows that the boat is leaking Everybody knows that Captain Bullshit lied Everybody got this broken feeling Like their father or their dog just died
Everybody talking to their pockets Everybody wants a box of chocolates And a long stem rose Everybody knows
Everybody knows that you love me baby Everybody knows that you really do Everybody knows that you've been faithful Ah give or take a night or two Everybody knows you've been discreet But there were so many people you just had to meet Without your clothes And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows
And everybody knows that it's now or never Everybody knows that it's me or you And everybody knows that you live forever Ah when you've done a line or two Everybody knows the deal is rotten Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton For your ribbons and bows And everybody knows
And everybody knows that the Plague is coming Everybody knows that it's moving fast Everybody knows that the naked man and woman Are just a shining artifact of the past Everybody knows the scene is dead But there's gonna be a meter on your bed That will disclose What everybody knows
And everybody knows that you're in trouble Everybody knows what you've been through From the bloody cross on top of Calvary To the beach of Malibu Everybody knows it's coming apart Take one last look at this Sacred Heart Before it blows And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows
Oh everybody knows, everybody knows That's how it goes Everybody knows
