New Rules (For ACA Posts)

[freshwest]

22. It would provide something to discuss, other than crying. There is no education in such posts.

No one can make an intelligent answer to support or argue without some information. It'd be like saying, 'XYZ stole the election in 2012' and no link to prove it. Just one big whine fest, or taunting or mocking each other.

It's why people are asking for an ACA group at DU for factual information. The most helpful reply to a few threads were about going to a Kaiser website to see comparisons.

We may be experiencing an influx of trolls trying to break the resolve of Democrats and others for the President's holding firm on the budget, which no matter what the GOP says, is about the ACA.

When one posts on the ACA, without helpful knowledge you run the risk of being seen as not supporting the unity of Democrats against the GOP and this damnable hostage taking circus.

People are being hurt now thorugh the Sequester, shutdown and pending debt ceiling crash and all because the GOP is trying to thwart the will of the voters, Congress and the Supreme Court on the ACA. Cruz has come out and others have, saying in code language, that it will caise Americans to reject Reagaonomics plan of governnance, fleecing the people for the rich, or letting them get by with no government taxes and regulations, which hurt so many people.

All of this may be used in the political lens and these posts may be from people who are anarchist, Paulite or whatever. Some of them sound like RW emails.

You will not succeed in making any rules, you are just bringing out the Libertarians to fight with you when you do so. But we need to think about the motive and philosophy behind unlinked stories that are negative.

EOM.
