1) Yes, he contributed a lot of quality posts and viewpoints
2) No, the place is better without him
3) Who? I don't give a F@#k either way
-
Definite no, he needs help.
-
You should add another option
4. yes
-
I have a mental image of 3333 sitting in the command center of his bunker staring at three screens; fox news, getbig and the drudge report. His radio is tuned to Rush Limbaugh while he keeps with constant contact with his militia battalion on his ham radio. This idea brings me great joy. He must return.
-
333 Should return. He was a good man, if a little... eh... eccentric.
-
It's not like he's really gone. He still sends me racist PMs.
-
When I first started lurking the political board I could not stand him. Thought he was one incident away from totally losing it and going postal on liberals. Then I came to realize we wanted the same thing basically but he was a little more vocal or deranged..lol. There were no winners in this election. America lost with either choice. So yeah...I would like to see the dude back and start beating the drum for a Rand Paul run in 2016.
-
4. yes, but limited to ONE new thread per hour
-
This thread again. :-\
-
I really couldn't give a shit but i think he knows if he comes back that he is going to get pummeled
He'd been predicting impeachment, withdrawal fro the campaign, "one and done" etc from almost the day Obama was first elected. This victory for Obama and the Dems was decisive and has to a complete humiliation for him
I don't think he dares to show up, especially given his declaration to leave
-
He had about 95,000 posts mostly in four years. That's about 65 posts a day average, each and every day for 365 days for 4 years. not factoring vacation days (if he ever went on one). I can't imagine making 65 posts in a single day and to think that was his average each day for 4 years....
-

It really showed how delusional he was. Often trading objectivity and common sense for being lost in a world of hate. And then painted himself into a corner calling anyone kneepadder and what ever else who dared disagreed with his delusions opening himself for monster punishment with OB getting reelected.
It got way worse in the last 18 months. Before that he was somewhat more reasonable.
Reality struck, November 6th.

I'm no fan of the Republican party as it's been for the last 5 years or so, but this is the first presidential election since '96 where turnout dropped from the previous election. People didn't give a shit. No rallying around anything, no sea change. Obama was simply the lesser of two white meats.
I also think pepole are kidding themselves if they think this election was a stand/repudiation/coronation of any kind. You had an underwhelmed populace that mostly didn't care, and those that did gave Obama a small victory in the popular vote. Obama didn't prove something, he got the job again because the other side didn't show up.
My two cents on 333 - it seems the board is hurting for content, given how many threads there are about him.
-
I say no.
-
I think his posts would pretty much convince 100% of the people on getbig that Rand Paul was the best GOP alternative for 2016.
Rand has none of the crazy, with all of the fiscal responsibility. Young, tea party loves him, gives great speeches, has no skeletons in closet... perfect choice.

I think Rand Paul would convince most on getbig to vote for Rand Paul.
I'm doubtful that 3333 ever convinced anybody.
-
33 cnvinced me of a TON of things about the evils of obama and the dems.
Every single person here that chose to vote obama had to look PAST embassy and a million other things we knew about.
Without him, this place turns into Democratic underground... 33 would expose obama's culpability on a daily basis.
-

Sorry pal, but this reflects on you and your political knowledge and/or cognitive abilities rather than anything about 3333. If you're using bodybuilding message board spam from a delusionite as an anchor for understanding American politics, then, well, yeah.
-

there would be plenty of news stories that never made it to FOX or msn that he would share, which would really open up my eyes.

I agree with 240 on the awareness factor. If something was happening, you could bank on it being here and then dig on your own.
-
same with the repub side of it.
I enjoyed watching msnbc at night and listening to rush/hannity/levin all day -
Cause then I could count on coming to getbig at night and learning the TRUTH about the stories I was spoonfed all day.
"I heard Chris mathews say this, but he neglected to mention this..." or "Rush said it's all about race, but wow, look at all these other factors..."
It helped me to argue better with those around me. It helped me to think higher level than just fox & friends kind of news.
-
You know what they say about polls? Polls lie! Polls are biased. You cannot trust polls.
333386 trusted the Presidential election polls and look where it got him.
-

I was excessively rude there so I apologize. Yes, I'm sure 3333 helped inform some simply by being a conduit to legitimate opinions (copying/pasting and the like). But as far as the man himself it just wasn't possible to have a discussion with him where evidence would be taken into consideration -- ever.
-
Yes. Too many f@ggot liberals starting threads now.
-

I've wondered what it would be like to always feel I was right about any topic I talked about and everyone else who didn't agree was wrong. I really don't think I'd enjoy it very much. People who are like that...don't really seem all that happy.

That's not unique to 33. There's plenty of posters on the other side who can't follow the flow either, and resort to semantics, twisting the argument, and not conceding one inch, even in the face of common sense.

Just in the event you did not know this, some f@ggots are conservatives.
“The gay left would have you believe that gay conservatives don’t exist,” said GOProud Executive Director Jimmy LaSalvia. “Now we see that almost a third of self-identified gay voters cast ballots for Republican candidates for Congress in this year’s midterm.”

nothing stopping him from returning other than his own humiliation and total destruction of any credibility (which happened long ago)

HHHaaaaaaahhaaaa!!! ;D ;D
-
Definite no, he needs help.
I actually think the political discussion has gotten so much better since he left......we no longer have to respond to idiotic stuff from outer space......the board has been very lively with political discussion since he's been gone
if anything I think the conservatives on here need him back more than we do......he is their standard bearer
-
It's not like he's really gone. He still sends me racist PMs.
same here...3 every day :D
-
That's sad.
-
That's sad.
the ones I got today said that I am a stupid, gay 94er black thug who voted for Obama so I could get free stuff and that Obama stole the election...all of this spread over three PM's... ;D
-

Are you guys serious?
-
That is just plain pathetic! >:(
-
He contributed fuck all apart from posting links to biased media. I would go as far as to say he's approaching Coach levels of stupidity if delusions could be converted to stupidity.
-
Are you guys serious?
Crazy shit right... this dude needs serious help
-
Crazy shit right... this dude needs serious help
he's sending to you to Option D?
-
Crazy shit right... this dude needs serious help
LOL - damn that's fucked up
-
I can't wait to hear what he sends to Benny. :D
-
so maybe this is 333's technical trick
he claimed he would leave @ 99,999 posts and instead of hittling that mark and leaving he stops before that mark and just does his spam and racist shit on a person to person basis via pm's
come on 333 - use your approx 480 remaining posts like a man and show up and take your beating

Maybe he's on strike, ...until Romney turns back on the staff credit cards?
-

No he had his Internet and phone direct eft to that credit card the payment didn't go thru :D

;D ;D ;D
-
Can we add the "Yes, provided he sticks to his actual intelligence level and posts real shit, not just the FUBO type of stuff?
When he had a quality post and a thought it was really good... He just got sucked into the copy and paste too much.
The guy, when rational, was really informed about things and I kind of miss that part.
-
vowing to leave and then lurking around sending people insulting and harassing PM's is a pussy move
-

He got really vested in Obama losing and it didn't happen... He lashes out a little... That's how it goes I guess.
I think he will actually return... I hope he does and I hope he brings real opinions and full rationale to the table.
-

and demented.
If it weren't for the fact that some folks have been getting PM's from him, I would have guessed that his electrical power is still out and he ran his car battery dead charging up his electronics. Being as how he is probably a serious recluse, it isn't like he will venture out to some liberal Internet café in order to get back on the Internet. Also, I've heard through the grapevine that there are actually liberal freeloaders gunning for him. :)
-

Same here.
Should he return? NO
-
Are you serious about him sending you guys racist pm's? :D
-

He PM'd me... nothing racist though... Just the guy I always knew was there.
I actually agree with his core beliefs on many levels... I don't consider him racist... maybe a little racialistic... but that's not a horrible problem.
-

Yeah who cares a little racism is part of life
I just find it funny he PM's you guys
Pretty weird but still funny :D

He could be sending the PM's from his phone
-
I just don't see the point of going out of your way to send racist PMs. I can only imagine the exchanges. He sends a message about how blacks are all criminals. Black guys send pics of white molesters or black dicks. Rinse and repeat.

You deserve to be pmd racist tweets and ones calling obama a ghetto pimp and race whore. O-THUG and his cult of welfare locusts and society dismantlers are all pieces of shit and useless maggots. F them all. I hope and know O-FOODSTAMP will still fail despite you scum bags annoting him again.

OMG. That sickens me to hear that much hatred. This guy is a danger to society.

Rand has none of the crazy, with all of the fiscal responsibility. Young, tea party loves him, gives great speeches, has no skeletons in closet... perfect choice.
Except that libertarians are lunatics...you cite/argue that laissez faire was tried during the "Gilded Age" with disastrous results...and they are too dense to realize they have lost the argument...
-
Are you serious about him sending you guys racist pm's? :D
God damn I thought we went over this before. Anti-Racism is so late 20th early 21st century. It thought we are past this and everyone is now celebrating racism??! If you are not yet you will soon. Racism is necessary for survival. Nature has no respect for a species / sub species that puts the needs of others above their own. That is grounds for extinction.
Why on earth would someone feel guilty for being called a racist? My God that is laughable.
I am racist and proud of it!
That does not mean I won't have a beer with a black friend.
What a bunch of f@ggots we have here.

What is your deal? Are you Jewish?

If it means less True Adonis, then yes, I vote for 3333386 to come back.

Less True Adonis? Where did that come from? TA posts on political for a week and then he's gone for 5 months or more. He's not a regular on political, that's for sure. After the election celebration ends he'll be gone again.
-
This is sad shit if 3333 just wants to hide behind pms because Romney lost. I would think someone who posted that much would have the balls to say what they have to say on the forum after losing.
-
Are you guys serious?
yep...very serious...
-
He had about 95,000 posts mostly in four years. That's about 65 posts a day average, each and every day for 365 days for 4 years. not factoring vacation days (if he ever went on one). I can't imagine making 65 posts in a single day and to think that was his average each day for 4 years....
I remember a few years ago he was posting on Thanksgiving....BY HIMSELF......there was no one else on the board...he put up about 35 posts that day alone if I recall
-

I either need a screen shot or a post from a credible source...garebear is not a credible source.
i agree he should come back at least long enough for the the bitches who he rented space in their minds to get some closure.
it is kinda funny to see these idiots melting down about some guy on an internet forum though lol
-
come on guys there have been so many who have received racist pm's lets get some screen prints

good point.....I remember distinctly when he started to lose it....many years ago he and I actually agreed with each other alot.....then he posted that infamous thread that a secret service agent was transferred because he overheard Michelle, Barack, and their kids talking about white people and making racial slurs aboout whites....he posted this WITH NO PROOF WHATSOEVER......I savaged him big time on it and he backed down but that was the beginning....
-

wrong.....Obama got a huge popular vote turnout......and as I mentioned he won very large majorities with everyone...even getting 80% of the ASIAN VOTE..Romney tried...but the Tea Party doomed him from the start.....I truly believe that if Romney ran in the Primary as a democrat against Obama and just stayed true to himself and ran on his record as Mass. Governor he may have won!!!

Without him, this place turns into Democratic underground... 33 would expose obama's culpability on a daily basis.
Lets not wax poetic over 3333 now that he's gone...embassies being attacked are actually NORMAL OCCURRENCES....our embassies were attacked while Clinton was president...and don't forget the grandaddy of them all, the Iranian attack on our embassy...
funny that in THOSE INSTANCES NO ONE QUESTIONED OUR SECURITY ARRANGEMENTS.......thats because we didn't have the hyper-partisanship we have now
-
Are you serious about him sending you guys racist pm's? :D
yes....true...but in his defense he has been doing that to bust my balls for years...I answer him back as well..we both live in the Bronx.....about 4 miles apart...I know where his supposed "office" is
-
1) Yes, he contributed a lot of quality posts and viewpoints
2) No, the place is better without him
3) Who? I don't give a F@#k either way
4) Only if he sucks Benny B. off on youtube.
FIXED

I have always wanted to.....he has invited me to many times....I have been near his "office" at times but was always afraid if I went over there I would see him in a Janitor's uniform...didn't want to destroy the dream :D

I don't know anything about the pms sent. The only pm he sent me was that he was out and wished me good luck.
I advised him well before election day that it would be a bad move to just take off on election day considering what he's posted here over the last 4 years. Anyway you want to dice it, he spent a massive amount of time here making his case against dems/liberals. To just take off on the day you don't get your way after doing all that, yea, sorry, I don't have much respect for that. That's chickenshit imo. He invested all that time here but didn't want to face it if it didn't go his way... Not cool. Sorry.... I got way more respect for you and other conservatives here than what 3333 just pulled.

3333 never struck me as a gimmicky guy -- he had his whole persona encapsulated in the 3333 brand. Not that I really give a shit, but magick's been around since March and participates at the rate of 3.5 posts per day, which simply isn't up to 3333-approved standards. There's also a somewhat different writing style being employed and I'd imagine it'd be difficult for 3333 to pull that off -- guys on here who try to swap styles like G-thang slip up.

Yeah, you're probably right.
-
In all truth, 333386 never forced anyone to read his posts. Like most of the rest of us, he owes no one here anything. If he deems it best to stop posting at any point, including on the very day he lost his bet as to who would win the Presidency, so be it.

It's 3333 with the spell check off and not plagiarizing someone else's article...
The 5th grade education is also the same,as well as the level of delusion...
One more thing countless threads started with a bogus premise are also a trademark of 3333, often with him in the 1st 3 posts of the topic

The problem is this: delusion, a 5th grade education, and threads based on false premises don't narrow down the list of potential candidates very much.

uh, wait a second buddy... 3333 absolutely did his best to TRY and force you to read his posts. Others who started threads, that never got a response, let them drop to page 2 but not 3333... When that guy wanted you to respond, he was fully willing to bump that fucker no matter how long it took. And if you think I'm bullshitting, I can pull up a shit load of examples for you.... Many with the first 8 or more posts just from him!! Or threads that are 8 pages long where his posts are 90% of the thread as a result of his constant bumping to force it on those viewing the forum.
On the second part, I would totally agree in MOST CASES but 3333 wasn't the normal case by any measure getbig has ever seen. When someone comes in and so fundamentally changes a forum to the degree he did just to say, "Oh sorry, I won't be around to back my shit" at the last second... Yea, we have a right to call that out as fucked up and chickenshit.

3333 never struck me as a gimmicky guy -- he had his whole persona encapsulated in the 3333 brand. Not that I really give a shit, but magick's been around since March and participates at the rate of 3.5 posts per day, which simply isn't up to 3333-approved standards. There's also a somewhat different writing style being employed and I'd imagine it'd be difficult for 3333 to pull that off -- guys on here who try to swap styles like G-thang slip up.
That guy is not 33. He's been other names before - tallgerman is one, but I can't remember the others. We've banned him from the sports boards.
There's tons of different styles, the most glaring being the inability to spell, and sports team affiliations. That retard started popping up on the sport forum and I even warned Ozmo about it.

And you will. Guy left the forum and all you can do is talk about him. It's pretty pathetic.
For the record - in the middle of a discussion about the Baltimore Ravens, andre said he wanted to jerk off watching Ray Lewis in a porno. We had to delete it - if you doubt me, ask CalvinH.

I don't know anything about the pms sent. The only pm he sent me was that he was out and wished me good luck.
I advised him well before election day that it would be a bad move to just take off on election day considering what he's posted here over the last 4 years. Anyway you want to dice it, he spent a massive amount of time here making his case against dems/liberals. To just take off on the day you don't get your way after doing all that, yea, sorry, I don't have much respect for that. That's chickenshit imo. He invested all that time here but didn't want to face it if it didn't go his way... Not cool. Sorry.... I got way more respect for you and other conservatives here than what 3333 just pulled.
agreed I got a PM from him saying he enjoyed my posts and that he was out.
Its funny though that all the racist talk is coming from the ppl who obsessed over him. These ppl trolled him more than anything so I have a problem taking them at their word.
I agree he should have stayed around but thats alright plenty of ppl come and go around here

Obamacare will add more competitiveness to the private market companies. Remember people arent required to get insurance if they already have some....do you understand this tony???????????

I am a senior citizen and I pay monthly premiums for my Medicare supplemental insurance in addition to the cost of Medicare, which currently is just under $100 a month in my income bracket. People with higher incomes pay higher rates for Medicare, part B.
Is this the health-care you think American's are getting for free? There is no way for folks to opt out of Medicare BTW, unless they can provide proof of other medical insurance coverage. It is required that one have Medicare part A, B and D which is prescription drug coverage. Part D comes at an additional cost. If you don't select part D or supplemental coverage with part D included, you are subject to a penalty.

hahah go back and re-read brainchild I said BUSINESSES will pay $2000 per employee if they have over 50 and dont give health insurance.
so a company that has an equivelent of 200 full time employees that doesnt give health insurance will pay $400,000 in penalties for the year.

My guess is that a lot of folks on Getbig are fairly young and healthy. When I was in your situation, I didn't care much about paying for medical insurance, either out of pocket or because it was factored into the salary package I received from my employers. In fact when offered a "cafeteria plan" I chose to put my money elsewhere (a cafeteria plan is one where the employer allows the employee to pick how they want to use their benefit dollars).
You see to an employer, particularly one with a lot of employees, calculates the total cost of an employee, which includes benefits such as medical insurance, vacation, sick leave, employer paid retirement and any employer paid taxes such as Medicare, Workman's Comp and Social Security.
It wasn't until I was almost 40 years old that I starting thinking I should be looking at some of these benefits; health insurance because one starts needing it more the older they get and because paying a doctor outright was starting to be really expensive. A hospital stay could bankrupt a person. I also realized it was time to plan for my eventual retirement if I was to have any. When I first took a position that provided these benefits, I also took a pretty big hit (as in reduction) in salary.
I don't know if Obamacare is the answer to our countries healthcare crisis; nobody does. We probably won't know what about it works and doesn't until it is implemented which isn't projected to be until 2014 and beyond, see time-line below:
OVERVIEW OF THE HEALTH CARE LAW
2010: A new Patient’s Bill of Rights goes into effect, protecting consumers from the worst abuses of the insurance industry. Cost-free preventive services begin for many Americans.
See More 2010 Changes.
2011: People with Medicare can get key preventive services for free, and also receive a 50% discount on brand-name drugs in the Medicare “donut hole.”
See More 2011 Changes.
2012: Accountable Care Organizations and other programs help doctors and health care providers work together to deliver better care.
See More 2012 Changes.
2014: All Americans will have access to affordable health insurance options. New Health Insurance Exchanges will allow individuals and small businesses to compare health plans on a level playing field. Middle and low-income families will get tax credits that cover a significant portion of the cost of coverage. And the Medicaid program will be expanded to cover more low-income Americans. All together, these reforms mean that millions of people who were previously uninsured will gain coverage, thanks to the Affordable Care Act.
2015
IMPROVING QUALITY AND LOWERING COSTS
•Paying Physicians Based on Value Not Volume. A new provision will tie physician payments to the quality of care they provide. Physicians will see their payments modified so that those who provide higher value care will receive higher payments than those who provide lower quality care. Effective January 1, 2015.

fact is that employers with more than 50 employees that dont provide health insurance will have to pay $2000 per equivilent full time employee.
Truth is this will substantially raise operating cost which will be passed on to the customer. Truth is employers will start to pull back on part time employees as they now contribute towards equivilent full time employees.

If the penalty is annually assessed, some employers may indeed believe it is cheaper to pay a $2,000 fine than provide employer paid insurance coverage. Fairly decent full-family medical coverage is currently about $16,000 a year; single coverage is about $6,000 a year. Employers who have a large group of employees may actually pay less for group coverage depending on the size and and risk factors in the group.
The cost of ObamaCare mandates has not yet been determined, since it is not yet fully implemented.

agreed and it definitely would be IF part time workers didnt count toward the full time employee number.
under obamacare all part time hours will be added up and divided by 40 and that number will be added to the number of full time workers to get an equivilent full time employee number.
that is what the penalty will be based off of.

Worse than a broken record. I did enjoy some of his posts (the ones that weren't filled with either the subtle or overt racism, and the ones that weren't anti-Obama). Sadly towards the end, that was all he posted. It was disturbing to see him get his hate on. He saw Obama around every corner. In fact, I'm surprised he didn't blame Obama for Hurricane Sandy, ...or did he? I can't tell, I stopped reading most of his stuff a long time ago.

The U.S. isn't Germany, I know. However, I would like to make some comparisons between these to countries and their health-care systems. I picked Germany because this is where my son and his family live, so I think I know a little about their health-care system. Although my son works for the U.S. government, which provides his and his families health-care insurance, his wife and children are all also covered by German health-care because his wife is German and she is employed by a German company. The German health-care is the medical insurance they prefer to use because it is better and more accessible for them.
In Germany employers are required to provide health-care coverage to their employees. This has been the case for at least as long as my son and his wife have been married, which is 25 years and most likely a lot longer.
My wife and I have hosted a few exchange students from Germany over the years. In two cases their parents were doctors. Doctors in Germany do not make the big bucks (as compared to other occupations) as U.S. doctors do. I do not know what the German government controls are over prescription drug pricing, but I do know that drug pricing controls in the U.S. are controlled by the drug companies more so than the government and their profits are huge. My cousin, a retired CEO for Pfizer is enormously wealthy as a result of his former position with the drug company giant.
My point is that the health-care crisis in this country has many layers. Certainly, greedy for profit medical insurance providers play a role. Overpaid doctors contribute to the problem. The masses of uninsured people who need health-care, but cannot pay for it, are a problem. Our system as it stood can not continue. ObamaCare may not be perfect, but it is at least acknowledg that something must change and taking a stab at doing this.
I am going to reiterate what I said before because I think you all need to consider this; a lot of Getbiggers are young and healthy. They probably don't see the need for health-care benefits because they believe they are invincible. Trust me when I say that you are not invincible. Anyone can get seriously ill and at any age. Pray that this does not happen to you if you are uninsured, because if you have accumulated anything of value, like real estate and you need expensive medical care, you could lose everything you worked for due to this illness.
Of course there is always another way to look at things. If people who cannot afford medical care were simply denied it and subsequently died as a result, it would lessen the problems we face as a result of over population. Many of those folk and their families who are stuck in menial, low-paying jobs with no benefits will simply cease to exist. Heck, with soaring unemployment rates, this will open up more slots for other slaves to the wealthy 1%.
Maybe I overstate, but anything is possible.

I thought the road runner pic and the airport colonoscopy might have been a bit of a clue, ...but I guess not.
Sorry for my lack of appreciation for your sarcasm. What you posted is funny.
My wife is scheduled for mammogram next week, I am thinking about taking her to the airport rather than to her doctor. Heck, if we had to pay full bore for the mammogram, it might be cheaper to by plane tickets to Hawaii for the both of us and I am pretty sure that would be much more fun.
Next year, I am scheduled for my once every 5 year colonoscopy. A trip through the airport security scan and even a public feel up would probably be more fun than that test. Not only that, who knows how far away we could travel on the cost of a colonoscopy.

The German health-care is the medical insurance they prefer to use because it is better and more accessible for them.
In Germany employers are required to provide health-care coverage to their employees. This has been the case for at least as long as my son and his wife have been married, which is 25 years and most likely a lot longer.
My wife and I have hosted a few exchange students from Germany over the years. In two cases their parents were doctors. Doctors in Germany do not make the big bucks (as compared to other occupations) as U.S. doctors do. I do not know what the German government controls are over prescription drug pricing, but I do know that drug pricing controls in the U.S. are controlled by the drug companies more so than the government and their profits are huge. My cousin, a retired CEO for Pfizer is enormously wealthy as a result of his former position with the drug company giant.
My point is that the health-care crisis in this country has many layers. Certainly, greedy for profit medical insurance providers play a role. Overpaid doctors contribute to the problem. The masses of uninsured people who need health-care, but cannot pay for it, are a problem. Our system as it stood can not continue. ObamaCare may not be perfect, but it is at least acknowledg that something must change and taking a stab at doing this.
I am going to reiterate what I said before because I think you all need to consider this; a lot of Getbiggers are young and healthy. They probably don't see the need for health-care benefits because they believe they are invincible. Trust me when I say that you are not invincible. Anyone can get seriously ill and at any age. Pray that this does not happen to you if you are uninsured, because if you have accumulated anything of value, like real estate and you need expensive medical care, you could lose everything you worked for due to this illness.
Of course there is always another way to look at things. If people who cannot afford medical care were simply denied it and subsequently died as a result, it would lessen the problems we face as a result of over population. Many of those folk and their families who are stuck in menial, low-paying jobs with no benefits will simply cease to exist. Heck, with soaring unemployment rates, this will open up more slots for other slaves to the wealthy 1%.
Maybe I overstate, but anything is possible.

Thanks for the "sir", but I would rather think of myself as just another schmuck who is trying to figure these thing out. I wish that age equaled wisdom, but the older I get the more I realize I don't have the answers anymore then any of the rest of the folk do. We are all struggling to solve the problems that face each of us.

Well for all its stumbling around and fucking up, useless managers that love titles or politicians that try and win votes with it, the NHS here in the UK is a damn good system. I get private healthcare through work but only very basic. It has been more then enough through the years. I was planning on increasing my premiums when I'm around 35 in a few years. That was until I got kidney stones in August. Hospitalisation isn't covered in my plan. So I had to go NHS or face paying up to £1000 a night (for a bed and airplane food). I must say the NHS service was SUPERB. Seeing I unfortunately had to have surgery (suckers were about 15mm each) I expected weeks of waiting for an opening. Try 2 days. I also had to have scans which could take up to a week. Try an hour. The food was awesome, menu included with good choice, medication for pain prompt. Each ward had a doctor that made his/her rounds hourly. Morale under the nurses and doctors was great, hospital was super clean and modern. The Hampstead Royal Free was the hospital by the way.
Before I left the hospital 2 days later I was given pain pills with prompt instructions and had a few follow up calls and letters to insure I was ok. I was even offered a consultation with a specialist to make sure there were now long term damage. All this for ... Well, the negligible amount I pay monthly for my National Insurance.
I might hold off raising my private premiums for a while.

Why the fuck would I want that here in the good ole USA? Fuck that shit. It infringes on all my personal liberties. Communist Brit!

So, what works for you and your supposed liberties in the good ol' USA?
Fortunately, I enjoyed excellent health most of my life. However, my wife has not. The kidney stone story is a reminder that my wife had them when we were both comparatively "youngsters" and had we not had good employer provided medical insurance, we could have been in a world of hurt. Her hurt being quality medical care and my hurt being the out of pocket expense to keep her alive which would have sunk us economically.

I was being sarcastic as hell. I'd love for our social safety net to be modeled after England or France instead of the Heritage Foundation.

Good to know.
Clearly, I have issues with getting too caught up with these issues. I failed to recognize your sarcasm. Sorry.

Does anyone thing that little pussy will leave the board forever? Seriously. Where would he go? What other board out there would tolerate his behavior? Constantly whining and crying, bumping old threads for no reason, derailing every thread he posts on just to exhibit his man crush on Obama? He's got nowhere else to go. So he will drag his little fake ass back here. With some bullshit excuse on why he is posting or under an alter one.
The little bitch has nothing else in his life except the internet. Why else is he just lurking on here reading and PMing people then?

now that's a little harsh.
i enjoyed his posts and his rants; made for fun reading during the day.
If he's still here and reading only - got your PM and will look for you on other boards- are you keeping your 333386 name?

Oh my, 333386 better be careful. He just may be in for an entirely different kind of butthurt worse than Nov 6th. Chad, go easy on him, and make sure you use plenty of KY.

Look, it's not a system that works 100% at all times, and there has been some cases where people had to wait months for a particular specialist operation. That does happen. Those stories usually makes it to whatever tabloid has an axe to grind with the government and gets blown out of proportion. Take in account we're a nation of raving hypochondriacs (not myself, I hasten to add) where people tend to run and waste the doctor's time because he 'felt funny this morning and sneezed'. I'd say half the people sitting in any waiting room in this country right now are just looking to moan at someone about some pointless ache or pain. It's just how the people in this country are. They cannot help themselves.
But for the 3-4 times in my life I've needed to see a doctor, everything was super prompt, professional and of the highest quality (as far as I could tell). If anything, they're a bit over the top in their treatments and throw the whole she-bang at you for a seemingly routine procedure. Since I've had this type of care available to me my whole life, I cannot imagine it to be any different anywhere. Especially not in a place such as the States. Granted, I do not know the ins and outs of Obamacare but if it could be a little bit closer to what we have here in the UK, it can only be better for everyone.

No Denmark
Socialised healthcare

Yes he should come back (although I didn't vote in the poll). Some of you people need to get a life. This is only a message board. Nobody died. Nobody is losing a limb. It's only the internet.
Will be moving this thread to the V Board.
-
He should come back. He has no where else to go. No other board would protect him like this and allow his delusional mind to spew all over every thread on a daily basis.
