]]> Comment on No one should die because they lack access to affordable health care. by Noel http://www.jmichaelroach.com/politics/no-one-should-die-because-they-lack-access-to-affordable-health-care/comment-page-1#comment-1460 Noel Tue, 16 Mar 2010 12:17:27 +0000 http://www.jmichaelroach.com/?p=84#comment-1460 Who is your dear friend that wrote the initial crap above? I will undermine his/her entire argument by addressing one point, the comment that, "My sister died due to lack of access to affordable health care." That is 110% BS. 110% of anyone, American citizen or not can go to any hopital, night or day, and receive FREE healthcare. FREE being defined as paid for by the 50% of Americans that actually pay taxes and purchase their own insurance either by self funding or through their payroll reduction (deduction if they pay or portion or reduction if the company pays and then does not actually give them the raise they would have gotten). No one, including the poor (sad, not financially poor) person noted above or the one Obama chose to exploit yesterday were too poor (financially) to obtain healthcare. They (and their pathetic (pathetic) families, for not taking care of them) were too dumb or too lazy to go get healthcare. Who is your dear friend that wrote the initial crap above?

The problem with statist is that they spend their lives looking for white swans and are great at ignoring the existance of black swans (which of course, would refute the basis of their lives). That's why facts, logic and reason have no place in the world of statist. Telling this to a statist is like a speaking Chinese to an illiterate hillbilly……..all they’d hear is blah, blah, blah.

]]> Comment on Publicis and Google: Should digital be easier to buy? by bg http://www.jmichaelroach.com/branding/publicis-google/comment-page-1#comment-12 bg Sun, 09 Mar 2008 04:54:25 +0000 http://www.jmichaelroach.com/branding/publicis-google#comment-12 I think too, many clients are still unsure and uneducated as to what digital really means. Is that viral? A paid search campaign? Repurposed content from their offline efforts but now in microsite form? Many brands will take a lousy banner ad and run it all over and think they somehow got value from it, just because it ran on Yahoo! AND it got clicks. The media agency tells the brand these are the sites you want to be on, and the brand follows along. I think too, many clients are still unsure and uneducated as to what digital really means.
