I don't know if the law is decent; no one does, or can, until we find out how it's implemented. <br /><br />Anyway, here's the <a href="http://ericsjackson.blogspot.com/2009/09/platos-republic-book-x.html" rel="nofollow">link</a> to the discussion of the last section of Plato's Republic.A Wiser Man Than Ihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02405864709965908573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10835776.post-50606209124884805082012-07-03T11:35:40.719-04:002012-07-03T11:35:40.719-04:00I happened upon this article while searching for d...I happened upon this article while searching for discussion of Plato’s Republic Book X. This article “Obamacare stands” seems erroneous so I made a post but saw that I had made a typo. I had to delete it because the edit feature was no longer available. I am here reposting…<br /><br />Committing the fallacy of omission means leaving out relevant information to enhance one's own opinion. The facts left out of "Obamacare (Affordable Health Care Act) stands," is that the freeloading penalty fee is a penalty fee under the tax laws but is not really a tax but a fine for not having insurance found out at the time of expecting healthcare but not being able to show that insurance is had, and affects about 1% of the people, not all of the people, and especially does not affect those who have insurance. It is a prevarication to imply that all of the people would be taxed. It is a typical Republican ignoble strategy to attempt to denigrate a decent healthcare law that helps millions of people. Much good of this bill is consistently hidden by conservatives who have no plan of their own to cover underprivileged people. Criticisms are welcome but not omission of facts which are in effect lies.<br /><br />Needless to say, I found discussion on Plato’s Republic Books VIII and IX but X seems not to have materialized.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03757715211486627631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10835776.post-62343563617252409942012-07-03T11:19:08.862-04:002012-07-03T11:19:08.862-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03757715211486627631noreply@blogger.com
