  1. Re:Brooks on DHHS Preparing 'Tech Surge' To Fix Remaining Healthcare.gov Issues · · Score: 3, Insightful

    then it is truly screwed, he is out of his depth on this. Those dreamy eyed fools who made the ACA did not realize the implications of it needing an massive IT infrastructure that cannot be crapped out in 3 years and tested for all of ONE FREAKIN DAY when it was completed this month (!!!!). pop up the popcorn kids, this train wreck will be worthy of a Fugative sequel

  2. Re:How about they just scrap it entirely? on DHHS Preparing 'Tech Surge' To Fix Remaining Healthcare.gov Issues · · Score: 5, Insightful

    you're confused. the whole reason we pay three times or more what more advanced countries do (yes kiddies, U.S. is not #1 for healthcare) is because of the big insurance and big healthcare full of fat cats lining their pockets. that system has to be destroyed. ACA just gives it more money. single payer might be viable solution but it will burn down some huge corporations. however, don't believe the lie that those big corporations are the main contributors or participants in our economy, people and small/medium business are the bulk of it.

    Hitler was not an atheist. He was a Roman Catholic, and had agreements and treaties with the Vatican

    you are funny. Hitler was a Christian.

    To say nothing of the Christian support in this country for waging wars of choice against "godless heathen" in middle east

    No, you need to learn what distinguishes science from a mere academic field. By the way, medicine also is not science, though they often use scientfic techniques.

    Ah, so you don't understand what science is. thank you for showing your ignorance and lack of education. We can disregard anything you have to say on a field of endeavor which is not a science.

    yes, had a few courses while pursuing my physics degree. psychology is not a science, that's why some people call it a "soft science". math, physics, biology, chemistry, those are sciences.

    which is not a valid argument for any NSA actions against a friendly country.

    America is 75% christian, and given how feral and out-of-countrol some of the groups are, I'd say they're fair game.

    Yes. Trivial. Consider any "experiment" in psychology. Using people who are unique and different in both experimental and control group. what can you prove with no true control? nothing, that's what.

    no, don't waste money on this stupid and inefficient early-1900s "wood gas" technology. just burn the biomass completely to make energy, it's carbon neutral process. these unscientific morons are wasting fuel with their "invention"

    wrong. ignorant lose-lose-lose so typical when non-engineers do something. they are making a small amount of energy and wasting most of the fuel. using biomass fuel is entirely carbon neutral. it is far more efficient to just burn the biomass and harmless to earth's carbon budget. morons.

    Psychology is not a science. It attempts to use methods and analysis from science but that is as far as it can go. Of course most of it can be debunked.

    China's arsenal is small, that's why it isn't discussed much. You confuse warheads and delivery systems. What new warheads are there? What difference would a "new" warhead design make? none, that's what. We don't need to make any new warheads, we have plenty and they are maintained.

    so you are not an engineer. I am. it is impossible for that vehicle to be made into a submarine without complete replacement. just as one tiny example, even if watertight, the body would be crushed underwater. There are about a hundred other simple problems like that.
