Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

I don’t recall signing up for living in a dystopian sci-fi novel.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

You would normally have to try pretty hard to self-incriminate this badly.

Petty moves from a petty man.

He wakes up lying, and he lies all day.

This country desperately needs a functioning fourth estate.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Weird. Rome has an American Pope and America has a Russian President.

You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.

So fucking stupid, and still doing a tremendous amount of damage.

So very ready.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

    What does silver load mean?

    edit google is my friend. Insurance companies will put the extra cost for insurance into the silver plans. It is this type of situation that will cause some to look at the gold plans, I believe that is what David said in the past.

    Today show is at least making clear Trump is responsible for CSR.

    Trump = Fucking Moronic Asshole (FMA)

    Other FMAs:

    Chris Cilliza: “But her emails…..”

    Dr. Jill Stein: “Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy is much scarier than Donald Trump’s, who does not want to go to war with Russia.”

    The entire Republican Party.

    All 63 million voters, who voted for the FMA in charge because he was “white,” a “man,” and a “business man who would run the Government like a business.”

    What does “Reserve” mean? Looking at MA. Yeah. I’m parochial.

    The “no CSR strategy” States, does that mean they have nothing in place as of publication or ‘these States have no plans to do anything about this clusterfuck’?

    @Tom Levenson: Reserve means that the state told insurers to file as if CSR would be paid but they had a plan in place to go to another option if they were not paid.

    Massachusetts’ plan A was to file a 1332 waiver that would pay the state the CSR funds directly and the state would then pay the insurers. If that is not approved by Sunday, they will Silver Load.

    @AnonPhenom: It usually means that the actuarial memos said “We’re assuming CSR will be paid in full and on time”

    David,
    Great graph, I would guess you are getting a ton of traffic! Quick question- for Indiana, you said to “See link” in the notes. Where is the link?

    David, thank you.
    I see Colorado is doing a “Broad Metal Load.” Does that mean spreading the cost over all of the plans?

    @Austin Lehman: The link is in the notes field of the Google Doc linked just above the map.
