Democratic 2020 Presidential Primary Thread

I looked at Humana's financials and it looks like they are generating about a 3% net income on average over the past 3 years. What's laughable is Warren or other dems thinking they are gonna cut costs by having the gubmint take over administering claims.etc... -

The Dem platform of open borders, free stuff and more government controls for many things gives us all several reasons to question the mental aptitude of the candidates. -
Not many look better in their casket but he likely will.

He can run counter to everything your side is pitching and he'll have a decent platform. -
Greed, stupidity and/or failure to scrutinize what they were buying. The buyers set the market willingly buying high LTV deals from many mediocre credit borrowers often without scrutinizing the underlying credits. Mortgage finance companies and banks filled that demand. Without those loan buyers and insurers willing to write coverage at the same levels of risk, the market never gets stupid or gets a lot less stupid.

A much larger contributor was loose credit practices. When you can write a bunch of loans, flip them for a quick profit to buyers such as but not limited to Fannie and Freddie who were very willing buyers who accepted a lot of mediocre credit, you create a big potential problem. The loan buyers at the time set the market. Without the secondary market or with a smaller and more discerning secondary market, we probably wouldn't have had as large a meltdown. Let's not forget that suggestions of oversight during the Bush 43 years were ignored by pols. If banks more often held loans in their own portfolios, things would not have been so loose.

It's a very tough business and I think GM's and coaches (and fans) might expect too much from 22-25 year olds playing what might be the toughest position in all of sports. Not many QB's in their first 1-3 years in the NFL deliver at the level that is hoped or expected. IMO this is exacerbated in a pass happy league that runs the ball less than it once did.

Rep. Elijah Cummings has passed away

. "I hope that my retirement will be viewed in the larger perspective of my record." Conyers you stooge, you had no retirement unless we consider what little you did for several terms in office. -
The Deep State War Heats Up :ph34r:

Pelosi is like the senior manager in the company that's been employed for 30 years that brings nothing to the table that you work around because nothing gets done otherwise and working with that person is so unpleasant. -
Gameday Thread Eagles @ Bills 1st Half
keepthefaith replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Certainly not deep in your own territory with a QB that has a history of fumbles when you have a good stable of backs.
