RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU THINK INSURANCE PREMIUMS ARE GOING DOWN.........HAHAHA

You can't write off more than 100% of your original cost. Have you ever shopped at a Dollar Store? Every item in the store costs $1. Have you ever heard of a Negative Dollar Store where shoppers are paid $1 to take away any item in the store? Didn't think so. But go ahead and open one if you think it's a good business model.

So it's an interesting concept, but not something that can be used to explain away Odumbo's bad math. Do you really think he was saying the cost of employer-provided healthcare is about to turn negative by a factor of 30? I've heard promises that the ACA would “bend the cost curve”... but nobody has suggested the cost curve can be bent to zero, or better yet, that insurers will soon turn around and start paying premiums back to us. And it doesn't matter if Odumbo was only citing an “estimate”. He cited it wrong. A 3000% drop is not mathematically possible. So let's just be honest about it and admit Odumbo made a big boo-boo, ok?


And how do you like my font size, Dickmuncher? See how easy it is to make a point WITHOUT SHOUTING AND ANNOYING EVERYONE? (Your lame insults are annoying enough.) The other cool thing is it allows you to ADD EMPHASIS as needed, something you can't do if you are already SHOUTING ALL THE TIME.

You amaze me, tranny boy. You got pinned to the mat three times in one thread, and you're still jumping up and pretending you won!





Give it up, tranny boy!

typical little boy response ... keep telling yourself that, eventually you'll believe it 100%

[lustylad]

And don't forget to do your homework tonight, tranny boy, it's really important that we get you up to a 5th grade math level... and remember, percentages are asymmetrical. Your homework assignment is to explain the meaning of "asymmetrical" and write an essay explaining (with examples) why percentages are limited to 100% on the downside and unlimited on the upside.

premium cost $1

Obamacare increase 200% = $2

premium cost after Obamacare $3

Obamacare subsuidy $2 ... 100% of the premium increase

premium cost $1


study up, its difficult to understand

And your point is? I will try one more time - In your example, Obamacare raised the premium by 200%, then the subsidy dropped it by 66%. The percentages are different because of the asymmetry in measuring upside/downside changes, even though dollar-wise the changes are the same and you wind up back at the starting cost of $1.

Now go back and re-read #55, it's NOT difficult to understand if you read slowly and try to grasp... one... word... at... a... time...

oh, I get it ... if you lower a number by 100% the number isn't 0 like you said it was..

thanks !

QUOTE=lustylad;1055306682]This is unbelievable! The POTUS doesn't even comprehend basic math! If a cost falls by 100% it drops to zero! You cannot lower a cost by more than 100%! A fifth grader knows that! If you pay $1,000 a month and your premium falls by 90% - you now pay $100 a month. If your premium falls by 100% - you now pay $0 and your healthcare is free.

oh wait, I said that, my bad.



tell ya what, you and Lexus Lover grab a calculator and figure it all out

and welcome to the 1st grade btw ... a word of advice ... you may want to quit posting pics of little boys wearing tights that show their little dick ... looks like a perv on your part .. just sayin

If you lower the original premium ($1) by 100% it would be zero. If you lower the the adjusted premium ($3) by 100% it would also be zero. Take your pick, tranny boy.

Sorry, I can try to fix your math deficit but I can't do anything about your little dick.

that's exactly what I said ... or not... ,you left out (only) the increased portion (of the 200% it increased)

you spend so much time trying to make everyone think you're some brain child you end up making a dumbass out of yourself with all your spin and pretentious bullshit ... you're on the mat, stay down... I'm done with your psycobabble, more importantly YOU. I sincerely hope you enjoyed the attention I gave you. You're below my measure, and a born loser. All anyone has to do is read your quotes I posted and see you talk in circles, and spew childish names ...

You're back for ANOTHER pin, tranny boy? This is getting embarrassing. I referred you to #55 but you still don't get it so I guess I will have to repost the damn thing:

So be careful what you tell your SW clients. If you're offering a blowjob special, don't say you're cutting your price by 100% (free BJs) when you're really just eliminating 100% of last week's price increase. You might get yourself seriously beat up, tranny boy.

You still can't reduce anything - whether it's an original or an adjusted cost - by more than 100%.

DUH!!!

You sign off with "THE END" whenever you know you're beat. It's not the end. It ain't over until you cry uncle. This isn't about politics, where everyone can think they are right. This is about basic math. You refuse to admit 2+2 equals 4. And if you think I'm below your measure, what did you get on your math SAT? Wanna take it over and see who scores higher, tranny boy?

In Math percentage is based on 100 of something. If you had a pie and gave all of it to someone you gave them 100% of the pie. In other words 100% is all of something. 200% is more than all of something. You can't have more than all of something unless you add to it, then you're not dealing with straight percentage any longer.
