Obamacare question - GeneralLee
So the way I understand obamacare is that if you elect to not get health insurance you pay a tax. So are poor people able to get insurance through Medicaid which would exempt them from that tax? While middle class people would pay the tax if they didn't have insurance and made too much money to be o...

Excellent article on 2012 election polling/outcomes - GeneralLee
[link=(http://www.bobkrumm.com/blog/?p=2445)]LINK[/link] This coming from a Democratic consultant. I really don't see how Ohio can go for Obama in 2012 when it was only 51/48 in 2008 in a wave election that was a perfect setup for him. The media will be shocked in just a few weeks. ...

Angle, Buck, O'Donnell, Akin, and Mourdock - GeneralLee
Likely to be 5 Senate seats that the GOP will give up over a 2 year period. Thanks Tea Party! Because of the nominating of idiotic, unprepared amateurs, there will likely be a Democratic Senate from 2013-2014 which will prevent the repealing of Obamacare and the nomination of conservative justices....

Ron Paul.... any chance he gets the nomination? - GeneralLee
His odds on intrade are up to 7.5%. Out of a field of terrible candidates, he's by far the best one left and the only one I would feel enthusiatic voting for. He has probably 9/10 brilliant ideas and 1/10 lunatic bat-sh*t crazy ideas, but that's better odds than many other politicians who are boug...

Below is one of the better links i've seen that explains this policy. http://motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2011/10/ngdp Basically, the argument is that the Fed should change the mandate to one of nominal GDP targeting instead of price stability and full employment. By changing to NGDP targeting,...

Discontinuity in a 2 QB system >> JJ's added running ability - GeneralLee
That's pretty abundantly clear to me after watching the games this season. The first snap JJ comes in last game we had 12 people break the huddle but it didn't get called. I would be willing to bet the same type of scenario will occur in a game like @Bama or @Tenn that will result in a fumble, pena...
