- John A. You certainly have some anger management issues. An old saying is that you can tell the size of a person based on the size of the things that upset them. Small things upset you dont they?

- John A., Yes I agree that you were correct that it is not a tax but are you truly so devoid of the concept of economics to think that the cost is NOT going to be passed on to consumers?

- As for the persecution complex, one can not be persecuted if they choose not to be. A spine and a confidence in your faith take care of that little problem. Jesus, now THAT was persecution! And this is coming from a Christian.

- OG What is the matter? You seem to be losing your cool? Upset about people attributing things to you that are false? Making fun of your ability to provide for your family? People not tolerating YOUR racist claptrap?

- OG, Lets cut to the chase. You are the reason that black sterotypes exist. Not because they are true but instead because there are dolts out there that are more than willing to breath life into them like you are doing here.

- sandtrich Many of you folks are petrified that poor people may have an opportunity to get a leg up. It's greedy and it proves, yet again, that the right is wrong. If you will deny any opportunity for a child to gain access to more information--you suck.

- WStevens, You could improve the planet by doing two things. STFU. Then go to the ocean nearest you. Gaze out at it. The immensity will bring you peace. Walk forward. Keep going. Embrace it. Keep going. In five or ten minutes the world will be a better place.

Mr; Angry White Male...dudos sir on your excellent retort to Greta. One and I mean only one point of disagreement with your missive. We must stop acknowleging that the Right may be, is, could be - "WRONG", too. The Left never does admit to being wrong. None of them. Ever. They see the Right constantly and I mean every Right commentor, asserting a point and then immediately ackowleging, "of course, we are not always correct, and we age guilty of this and that; we are not pristine..." etc. STOP IT. "NEVER LET THEM SEE YOU SWEAT!" to cop a cliche.

As I said, one only argument/suggestion on your excellent commentary.
