The Political Page, T+189 -- July 28, 2017
ObamaCare: on so many levels, not passing the "skinny" bill was the right thing to do.- everyone needs time to step back and really, really think this through
- health care insurers will do just fine -- as long as changes don't whipsaw them back and forth
- ObamaCare apparently holds back national GDP 0.1%
- it appears healthcare in the US is not imploding; the US Senate -- made up of the smartest politicians in the universe -- don't seem much worried about healthcare; if they're not worried, why should anyone else worry
- I blame him less than the advice he must have gotten from his generals
- if he made the decision/announcement without input from his generals, then it was a really, really, really, really bad decision/announcement
- this issue was not on the top 10 list of any US poll of issues facing Americans; I'm not sure it was even on any top 20 list
- not one argument banning transgender Americans from the military holds up
- he was very, very clear during his campaign: he loved the LGBT voting bloc
- I'm waiting to see Camille Paglia and Peggy Noonan address this issue
- needs to approve $3 billion in tax breaks
- wanna bet it's not a slam dunk
What happened? I debated at length (about 20 minutes) whether to post "what happened" the other day? Wow, talk about superb timing. Today, Ted Van Dyke, active for more than 40 years in Democratic administrations and campaigns, talks at length about "what happened." He must have read the blog. LOL. If blocked by a paywall, google the democrats biggest problem is cultural wsj ted van dyk. That's what I love about this country. The activists in the 60s, one could argue, were much like the colonists in 1776. It just took a little longer and there was no Treaty of Paris (1783).
- Ted was VP Hubert H Humphrey's assistant
- Ted was policy and platform director for George McGovern’s campaign
Scaramucci: certainly ruined his "good-boy" charm. About as naive as they come.
Daily WH press briefing: streams. How good it works, I don't know. First time I've tried it.
Just give them the money: from USA Today -- $70 million in government "financial institution" to manage a program with $34 million in assets -- and Congress complains about US banks ... where is Pocahontas?
The Trump Administration said Friday it’s shutting down an Obama-era program aimed at encouraging low- and moderate-income households to save for retirement because the scant participation didn’t justify the cost.
About 30,000 Americans have contributed a total $34 million to the program, called myRA, which launched in late 2014 as an option for households that didn’t have access to an employer-sponsored retirement plan, such as a 401k, the Treasury Department said. About 20,000 accounts have a median balance of $500 and the owners of another 10,000 accounts made no contributions.
Meanwhile, it has cost $70 million to manage the program – including server costs and promotion -- and was expected to cost an additional $10 million annually going forward, Treasury said.
