I wish people wouldn't be so rude to those who lose out under the ACA.

371. A discussion?

This is not the way to initiate a discussion.

I posted a response to the OP with an explanation as to why I had my opinion. You countered with the unlikely projection that the ACA would "equalize health care for all". I pointed out one way your prediction was unreasonable given the real-life observation of what has happened with decades of Medicare. Instead of responding to the actual substance of the post, you call out another sentence in order to change the topic demanding that I explain myself to you without doing the same for your own assertions.

This is the type of behavior that wears out the sincere person because you require them to take the time to explain themselves and back it up while you don't do the same. Not only that, you do so with snide and condescending language like, "I'm afraid you will need to clarify your reply." That is not talking to someone as an equal. Need to? Need to clarify to whom?
