Lioshika: Oh, I didn't mean all insurance companies, I meant some. But I was mainly talking about the huge controversy about it; everyone kept ignoring that it was also used to treat health conditions, which was the main point that angered me lol. I'd have to look it up again, but I think something was passed to make the majority of insurance companies cover it. I may have heard wrong though. But I know that Obama was at least on the right page about it.

And no, third parties have not won any election, but I believe because of the percentage of people who voted third, it's now an official party. I only vaguely heard about it, but some major changes are happening when it comes to third party candidates now; hopefully this means they'll get more spotlight in the future. This is why I was saying it wasn't a waste to vote for them. @__@

Edit: I think the main thing was that now third party options will get places on the ballot in several more states than before, which will give them more attention. +only seeing what his friends are linking everywhere/can barely keep up+ xD;


Poggio: Yeah, I was also thinking about that; he seemed so harsh on the unemployed, and me being unemployed now ( though I'm not taking any benefits ) that would make life harder for a loooot of honest hard working people. I agreed 100% about how there needs to be drug tests and such on those applying for benefits, and there needs to be a wayyy more strict way of going about it than there is now ( I mean, a woman my dad works with is getting food stamps, yet she has a job and is paid the same as my dad, yet we're not on food stamps or relying on the government at all. To me, that's taking away from people who actually need it. Not to mention those who take from the government and just go out and party. ) I admired how good he is at managing businesses, though, and thought if he could apply that sort of leadership to the economy - if that makes sense lol - then we'd be okay.
However, if the economy was just a-okay, I would be behind Obama pretty good. Though, he as a person doesn't sit right with me at all.
Both of them just come off as slick manipulators to me. Dx


xD I have to say, the people who run for these things have my kudos for not puking a lake of blood from stress. I know I'd die in a writhing ball, rofl


... Gary Johnson for 2016? \o/
Lol
