No thanks to Trump. Despite Trump.

People have the capacity to move through obstacles.

-Why do you hate America?

He doesn't. He just wants you to think he does.

Because he's not getting what he wants.

He's on a 2+ year temper tantrum.

similar to a child who is being denied his candy.

-Meanwhile, America was doing incredibly well prior to Trump.

I certainly was. And I'll bet everyone here is doing incredibly well now.

Am I wrong?

-The good thing is that once he's dead and after a few years of recovery, the US can start work on regaining a shred of credibility.

according to this place, we had zero credibility in the world when GWB was president.

then that changed almost overnight.

The point is that the credibility isn't that hard to get back.

-America did have it all.

I'll give you this, Clown....you do keep me guessing on whether or not you're trolling or serious with comments like that.

BTW, this specific franchisee has more issues than a beef price increase leading to their financial woes.

"Screwing up and then expecting the general population to adapt to the screw-up by modifying normative culture is something lazy, incompetent, and corrupt leaders pray for.

Very true statement. It applies in all organizations, actually. just replace "general population" with "employees""

I almost wish she had referenced spam or bologna

Oh, a ton of faux outrage over this comment.

Everyone here pretending to be upset over it EAT chicken. And if they don't, it's got nothing to do with cost.

I love beef......but I also love chicken. and cost can determine which I choose.

The same goes for everyone here.

but now that the Sec. of Ag told people not to eat at Wendys...............

When can we expect to see car and house prices coming down?

"Brooke Christine Leslie[1] was born on April 10, 1972, in Dallas, Texas.[2] Leslie was raised in Glen Rose.[3] She was the oldest of three children born to Hugh and Helen Leslie. Hugh was the front office manager of a Hilton hotel in Saint Paul, while Helen managed a farm; they later divorced. Leslie assisted her mother in running a flower shop after the divorce.[4] By 1989, Leslie had become the Area VIII president of Future Farmers of America[5] and a member of 4-H.[6] She began supporting conservatism after watching the first inauguration of Ronald Reagan.[7] Leslie graduated from Glen Rose High School in 1990[8]"

This is about ACA....not Medicare.

-Brooke" I wonder what snotty little prep school she went to...

It's a pretty common name.

"In response to that action, Vance and Oz announced that over 500 brokers have been warned they could be blocked from taking part in enrolling future participants. CMS also announced a moratorium on new brokers helping people to enroll."

Now, I know the LAST person you all would have sympathy for would be an insurance agent...but they are going after agents as well....implying they knew their customers were lying on their applications.

what exactly is the fraud one can commit?

is it the subsidy? they shouldn't qualify for it but lied about their income or something like that?

Would this be around 4% of the enrollees? 760K out of over 19 million?

I don't think the other hamburger places appreciated that comment

Not to mention the various cattle associations......

A way to combat this would be to find people being cancelled for their "fraud" when in fact they didn't commit any fraud.

put a face to this political shenanigan.

How do they know NOW an enrollee committed fraud?

Corky still trying to be relevant.

Upset his pep rally got disrupted.

I would imagine there were democrats who had to run away some from Clinton and Obama at the same mid-term election in their final terms.

GWB as well.

it's a long read but interesting.

-Having a child really changes your view on life, you really feel accomplished, like you satisfied your lifes purpose.

very true but I would change that slightly to "raising a child".

Any ------- can "have" a child. But doing it right is what's special.

It's so rare and important you have to apologize for it in certain circles.

-IMHO childless people are the least successful

uh oh........
