    Did Obama actually said that?

    Absolutely he did. He stood aside when Occupy was brutalized. He did nothing meaningful to help consumers during the foreclosure crisis. He gave the MIC seven wars at once during his presidency. (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, and Libya.) He made sure the big banks got their bailouts. His promise of universal health care morphed into ‘access to health care’, which of course, only existed if you could absorb being price-gouged for your insurance.

    Hell, he walked into Flint and pretended to take a drink of water as a political stunt, when he and everyone in that room knew their water was still poisoned with lead.

    Obama was a massively corrupt president, and one of the biggest disappointments in American history.

      The last time i tried to get insurance on the exchange, they said it would be 5 thousand dollars.

      I said “5000 dollars a year? that seems high”

      they said “Oh, no sir. 5000 dollars a month”

      I said “Goodbye” and hung up.
