		<description>August J. Pollak: It is very American to want to help our fellow countryman.  I believe in my government especially our men and women in our military, firefighters and police.  You, not so much.  Lets face it the previous administration did nothing, they have no ideas (except start two wars of choice that are bankrupting our country with all the “war profiteering” contracts to Halliburton) well you and I will just have to agree to not agree.  I did not believe any of the Republican rhetoric before the last election and I do not believe them now.  I do not believe that your sentiments are in line with the majority, I read all your comments, very odd, very troll like.</description>

		<description>&quot;I have plenty to stand on. Oliver asked us to cool it so since it’s his blog, I will honor it.&quot;

God you&#039;re a freaking coward.

&quot;But let’s table this since OW asked us&quot;

God you&#039;re a freaking coward.

Like I said Dennis, the first rule of being a bitch-ass punk like yourself is to not make promises you can&#039;t keep.  I was actually the one who tried to play things cool after you made the offer then backed out of it, but you continued to make personal attacks against me and my profession.

You reap what you sow.  And you&#039;ve been sowing a lot of cowardly bullshit during your tenure here.  Expect to be held accountable for it.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Unemployed people don’t have much money.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That can be true or it may not be.  People with money may choose not to work.  Jaim, it&#039;s not about you not making much or making a whole lot, or paying a lot of taxes or not paying much at all.  It&#039;s you not paying any and then demanding someone kiss your ass because you say they owe you that for federal assistance they received.  You love to call me your favorite middle school name of punk-ass bitch, but Jaim, that is being the quintessential punk-ass bitch.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Anyways, since you bitched out when I accepted your offer to fly home and beat your ass in front of your family, you really don’t have much of a leg to stand on.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I have plenty to stand on. Oliver asked us to cool it so since it&#039;s his blog, I will honor it.  You come now or in the next week or so and I&#039;ll pay.  I won&#039;t pay you if your hakwon is already paying for it, which it likely is, and when you were already coming anyway.  That&#039;s kid-stuff, Jaim.  But let&#039;s table this since OW asked us to and we&#039;ll talk in Dec.  My fam won&#039;t be coming along, but you&#039;re welcome to follow me home afterwards if you&#039;d like.  I&#039;ve got a few books I&#039;d love to have you take a look at and I&#039;d be glad to show you the homestead and hopefully give you some inspiration about what hard work and good family life is all about. 

People can change, Jaim.  It&#039;s not too late.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;You bitch about wing-nuts like me because you want more of my money.&lt;/i&gt;

Yes, that&#039;s it. It&#039;s not the pointless wars, it&#039;s not depriving gays of rights to fuel your undeserved sense of self-worth, it&#039;s not wanting to punish women for liking sex, nope, it&#039;s just the money.

&lt;i&gt;Jaim, people in Korea don’t think you’re even a professional. Anyone who can speak English will do.&lt;/i&gt;

What the hell would YOU know about Korea. Just because you have an irrational hatred of foreigners, doesn&#039;t mean everyone else does.</description>

		<description>&quot;You bitch about wing-nuts like me because you want more of my money.&quot;

Unemployed people don&#039;t have much money.

&quot;You said you left America because you didn’t like the America as it was, and now you live in a country that doesn’t give a shit about what you do.&quot;

America was a pretty fucked up place under Bush.  And I like to travel, so it was a win-win.

Anyways, since you bitched out when I accepted your offer to fly home and beat your ass in front of your family, you really don&#039;t have much of a leg to stand on.

Carry on, little Dennis the coward.  Carry on.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t work on Sunday and you didn&#039;t pay any taxes, Jaim.

You want to claim you only took stock gains last year and you let your dog stocks sit and fester.

The likelihood of that is infinitesimally small.

You bitch about wing-nuts like me because you want more of my money.

Jaim, people in Korea don&#039;t think you&#039;re even a professional.  Anyone who can speak English will do.

You said you left America because you didn&#039;t like the America as it was, and now you live in a country that doesn&#039;t give a shit about what you do.

No wonder you&#039;re miserable.  I probably would be too.

Higher taxes on us and a little more money given to you isn&#039;t going to solve your problems, Jaim.  Your dad paying your way through elite private school should&#039;ve already taught you that by now.  It&#039;s hard to let go of the teat, isn&#039;t it.  

The Millionaire Next Door.... it&#039;s all in there.  I&#039;m thinking of emailing the authors and telling them if they&#039;re going to write another sequel that I know of the perfect test case for them to write about.

It&#039;s not considered a conservative book either; you should buy it.</description>

Oliver, that&#039;s what you hate about Rush Limbaugh and Bill O&#039;Reilly.

There&#039;s not one wit of difference other than you believe you are on the right side of matters.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Just a sheer contempt for other human beings, and a total inability to engage in empathy.
--Lonely Jaim&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Jaim, we both have wives and children.  Families, Jaim.  You sit in an incredibly small living space on the other side of the world and lash out at Americans every morning when you wake up.  It&#039;s you who shows contempt on every post you write here.  We both work here and raise our families and pray with them and teach them and support them and interact with their friends and their friends&#039; families and our communities.  We engage in boatloads of empathy.  You have no clue what real empathy is.  I&#039;m not speaking for Jay but I&#039;m sure it&#039;s the case with him too that we both live empathy from the moment we wake up in the morning till the moment we fall asleep at night.  You pretty much sit there by yourself and write about people you hate- it&#039;s never anything other than that.

You ran away from even the possibility of all that to another country where you are quite obviously miserable.  So you blog and bash people back home.

That&#039;s your only sign of empathy, that you think you are bashing Americans who are on the wrong side and that&#039;s empathetic to the people on your side.  You don&#039;t even contribute financially to their plights, the expat exclusion of teaching abroad was quite enticing to you...no federal taxes, woohoo!.

Bravo, Jaim.  A real American hero you are.

This country needs more people like you.  

&quot;&lt;i&gt;Just a sheer contempt for other human beings, and a total inability to engage in empathy.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

What a complete asshole.</description>

<p>You ran away from even the possibility of all that to another country where you are quite obviously miserable.  So you blog and bash people back home.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s your only sign of empathy, that you think you are bashing Americans who are on the wrong side and that&#8217;s empathetic to the people on your side.  You don&#8217;t even contribute financially to their plights, the expat exclusion of teaching abroad was quite enticing to you&#8230;no federal taxes, woohoo!.</p>
<p>Bravo, Jaim.  A real American hero you are.</p>
<p>This country needs more people like you.  </p>
<p>&#8220;<i>Just a sheer contempt for other human beings, and a total inability to engage in empathy.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>What a complete asshole.</p>

		<description>I just want to say that August J. Pollack&#039;s take-down of yet another of Jay&#039;s bullshit talking-point/cut-n-paste jobs is the stuff of internet legend:

The story of the woman in Oregon is very sad, but what&#039;s worse is that the wing-nuts are trying to exploit the story of someone who was fucked over by the private insurance industry into a cautionary tale about how great the private insurance industry is.

Honestly, I don&#039;t know how wing-nuts like Jay and Dennis can sleep with themselves.  I imagine they&#039;re just highly dysfunctional personalities, bordering on sociopathic.  A lot of plain stupidity and ignorance must help them get through the night as well.  Just a sheer contempt for other human beings, and a total inability to engage in empathy.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I don’t know what you’re talking about, MOH. When I asked you yesterday to explain what I lied about, the reason you gave was something I didn’t even say. What lies are you talking about today? You never seem to explain your thoughts very well.&lt;/i&gt;

He&#039;s talking about the fact that you can opt out of the 5 year visits entirely. Moral of the story: Don&#039;t ask questions for the sake of asking.

&lt;i&gt;A dead client can’t keep paying premiums.&lt;/i&gt;

I wouldn&#039;t put it past them to try to find a loophole for that as well.</description>

		<description>@Jay:
&lt;em&gt;And let me say that if there was a proposal that said insurance plans had to be made clearer to understand for consumes, I would support it.&lt;/em&gt;

Good news! See Sec. 133 of the current House bill: Requiring Information Transparency and Plan Disclosure, Paragraph (2) Plain Language.</description>
