    Is that better? Cop Rock left symbolically.
    No. Not really. Seeing how the World Wars turned out, it's hard to say that was detrimental to the country. The opposite is an easier argument. A few of those are legit, but others, like Walmart, are just silly.

    A lot of innocent Americans perished in the various wars. Walmart has decimated small town America. To say that the Affordable Care Act is worse than them is hacky. You're better than that. Some here aren't.

    A lot of innocent people die in every war.

    I'm not saying ACA will be the worst thing since slavery. It's an extreme statement, but if you're saying that Walmart is the worst non-war thing to happen to America since slavery, then you're being even sillier, and have no room to criticize him.

    I'm not really sure what the worst thing to happen to America is since slavery, which is why I threw the question out there. Right now I'm sitting on antibiotic resistance, but that's not my final answer.

    Actually...probably the legalization of abortion. I know it's dropped crime in America, but we're killing millions of babies.

    Then pull out Walmart. It's no less debatable than antibiotic resistance. A lot of small business owners across America lost their "lives" because of it.

    Adapt or die----Those business did not adapt-----------Do you feel sorry for the companies that once made typewriters? or the best maker of slide rules?

    Walmart kills people? I'm not sure where you're going with this.

    I don't get the appeal of ANY authoritarian socialist crooks.
    Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.

    Kills people? Who said that? Things worse than obamacare. How does obamacare kill people (mythical death panels notwithsTanding)?

    You said people lost their lives due to Walmart.

    Also, it's pretty simple to see how messing up the medical system could lead to people dying. You may not view Obamacare as bad, but Carson clearly does.

    "Lives" meant their "way of life". Thought that was pretty clear. That's why it was in "quotations". Livelihood would have been better stated. I'm from a one stoplight town in eastern oklahoma and I saw it.

    Slavery worse than all those other things. All those other things worse than obamacare. How hard is that?

    Somewhere between 26,000 and 45,000 people died each year due to not having access to health insurance. Extending them insurance is much worse than slavery? Right.

    Do you hate computers, calculators, and cell phones? Things are always changing, but that doesn't make it bad.

    Yes. Exactly. We're all about killing people. I'm glad you figured us out.

    'Cept they are using it...
    Everything progressives do is aimed at weakening democracy, capitalism and the social and cultural institutions that support those things...... They are about subjugating people and being a ruling class.

    Poor communicator again. "died" implied before ACA. While implied, it was unclear on my part.
