What I want to know is what makes these left wing kooks think the cost is to cover insurance because thats not what was said. They said the cost would go up because of Obamacare, but Obamacare is far from insurance.. Its FINES..

Don't get me wrong.

I don't support Obamacare.

It's not UHC, it's forcing us to buy into a broken system.

The statement I was making is if UHC was on the table, I wouldn't mind a price increase in everything, including taxes, to pay for it.

One thing I will never, ever give up is Taco Bell.

That place is my lifeblood.
Taco Bell? Geezus...you must have an iron gut. Not that i don't like some of their items, but they don't like me.

But then, White Castle is church for me, so i've got no room to talk.

I would agree with this. Just expand medicare to cover everyone.

Not so much an "iron gut" as "knowing what and how to order".

Which, working there for 2 years will teach you exactly how to order Taco Bell, and which menu items are most superior.

White Castle is Krystal here. Fortunately, we don't have any in the state or I would weigh 300 lbs. I would not boycott them for any reason. I don't care who they gave money to...my outrage can only go so far. PaPa Johns...that is easy.

Yeah, the closest Krystal's to me I believe is about 8 hours, White Castle even further out.

We do make it a point to get Krystal's every time we go south.

And considering we're going to Dragon*Con in Atlanta at the end of the month...

White Castle and Krystal's (along with Mrs Winners chicken) could all make public donations to the KKK, and i'm NEVER gonna stop going. LMAO

Go to the Varsity in Atlanta. It is a hamburger joint (HUGE). Order the chili steak (hamburger with chili). Order 3 of them. They are a little bigger than a Krystal. Get the fried onion rings and the orange drink. You will be in heaven. Fortunately, I only get there about once a year. My arteries can handle that.

I'll look into it, thanks. The wife and I were looking for a decent place to eat that weekend.
