Some of you, only tune in what you want to hear.. Some of you think Self Rule is a Joke. But, we know, most of Americans Know, We rule, in a lazy way.. But, we rule against this idea that we don't know what is good for the USA. WE are the USA you dumbasses. But, I can see, when this stuff comes out, why our friends abroad with no self rule, there, think, there is no self rule, here . But, you just saw it last week. And this is just the tip of the iceberg of the the Fall showing of the de-clawing of this Admin. It should be fun, unless you were duped by the liberal Press.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Jonathan Gruber was, by most accounts, one of the key figures in constructing the Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare. He helped designed the Massachusetts health care law on which it was modeled, assisted the White House in laying out the foundation of the law, and, according to The New York Times, was eventually sent to Capitol Hill "to help Congressional staff members draft the specifics of the legislation." He provided the media with a stream of supportive quotes, and was paid almost $400,000 for his consulting work.
Jonathan Gruber, in other words, knows exactly what it took to get the health care law passed.
"This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO [Congressional Budget Office] scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. Okay, so it’s written to do that. In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in – you made explicit healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed… Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really really critical for the thing to pass....Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not."

“And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical for the thing to pass,” Gruber said.

The latest tape, from Nov. 2012, captures Gruber talking about the “Cadillac Tax,” which targets high-end health plans.
“It’s a very clever, you know, basic exploitation of the lack of economic understanding of the American voter,” Gruber said during a speech at the University of Rhode Island.
