So....How's Obama working out for you?! LOL
Glad you asked my friend, as I haven't had much of a chance here to tell folks how many more prescriptions I'm filling these days from the Obamacare. Funny thing how people tend to give me more business once they're finally able to afford to see a doctor, and a little ironic how the reason I haven't had the time to tell you about all the extra prescriptions I've been filling is because of...all the extra prescriptions I've been filling.
That's the main effect I see as to how the Obama's working out for me. I'd call it a win win for me and my customers.
Of course there's more to a presidency than money for me, so I suppose we should take a minute and ponder some of the other workings out of the Obama administration:
-A quantum leap forward in rights for gays and lesbians.
- A solution to a vexing problem in the Middle East that doesn't involve a bunch of dead people.
-Long overdue recognition that pretending that the government of Cuba doesn't exist is kinda stupid.
-Acknowledgement, at the top federal level, of the idiotic gun culture so unique to us.
-Net neutrality is now federal policy.
-AT&T and T-Mobile were stopped from combining to make your cell phone service even worse than it is now.
-Comcast and Time Warner were stopped from combining to make your cable/internet service even worse than it is now.
-No more federal cheer leading for the likes of Lloyd Duplantis and his ilk. Pharmacists, you'll remember, who got their 15 minutes of fame during the Bush administration for denying women birth control prescriptions.
We'll classify those under "things you definitely wouldn't have got under a President McCain or Romney."
By the way, there have been developments on the Lloyd Duplantis front. Stay tuned.
Back to the Obama workings out though:
-A president who addresses the out of control criminal justice system we've created, and the personal, spiritual, and financial toll it takes on every American.
-An economy that didn't collapse after it was left on the brink by George The Lesser.
Those will go under "things you probably wouldn't have got under those other two guys."
It hasn't all been roses and sunshine though, to wit:
-George The Lesser's wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are still limping along, although another way of looking at it would be two fewer wars have been started than during the previous administration.
-Guantanamo's still there.
-Zero action, at the federal level, regarding the idiotic gun culture so unique to us.
-A monstrosity of a trade deal is working it's way into law. If you haven't read about the Trans Pacific Partnership you should.
Those will go under "things that probably would have happened under a Republican administration."
All in all I'd give Obama a "B," mostly for the increased foot traffic going through my business these days. If I were rotting away in Guantanamo or humping around in Afghanistan, I'd be inclined to grade him a little lower.
Not quite sure why you care about my views so much my anonymous friend, but there you go.
