Lol You must have missed the post where I said I'm no conservative; but their policies overall are way better than any liberal democratic(now going socialist it seems). You all must be listening to way too many crazed, fear mongering media sources where as there is no story or action at all taken upon gay marriage or any of it. If we didn't have to get married for the K-1 we wouldn't have. We don't need the marriage, that's just legal stuff.

 

And as for the Dem or GOP state.. well I'm glad to live in a red state that isn't how ever many millions in debt as Cali is nor deals with that homelessness and yet uses tax payer money to protect illegal aliens (even criminal ones). Also people here in this state  tend to be a bit more in actual reality than living in la-la land like them.

You are making no damn sense jumping from LGBt right to California’s deficit 😳😳, you the one watching too much craziness , you should stop watching Faux news and read breitbart. Last time I checked California has a budget surplus  California Gov.Jerry Brown signed his last budget, a $201 billion plan with a surplus of almost $9 billion compared with a large deficit he inherited back in 2011 and according to S&P Global Ratings, the Golden State has enjoyed "one of the strongest credit recoveries that we have seen among all the 50 states." Anyway that’s is not the damn point I was trying to make , you purposely dodged mixing California’s deficit with sanctuary city laws when I was only talking about gay’s right under the democrat and gop especially the evangelical and crazy pastor that Trump likes so much who think you are a sinner😳

My biggest concern with this policy is the retroactive aspect if it is enforced that way. If, as a legal immigrant who has been here on two different visas and is now currently adjusting to permanent resident, and who was added onto my husband's Obamacare after checking with our lawyer that doing so was 100% legal and would not be considered a public charge, I would then have to get off Obamacare and pay for other insurance, yes, it would be extremely difficult, expensive, and stressful. But I would, in the interest of keeping my nose clean as an immigrant, do the difficult, expensive, and stressful thing, as I have always done while being an immigrant. It is what it is. But to retroactively say that I now can't apply for residency or citizenship, even if I were to get off Obamacare if this new rule goes into effect, for following the law and legally having the mandatory healthcare, is absolutely absurd. 

 

Can anyone speak, ideally logically and without inflammatory language, as to the likelihood of the retroactive aspect of this being legally passed? 

It isn't likely that it will get passed retroactively. The fight would be huge, and we're gearing up for elections.

You miss the periods at the end of my sentences and that I separate the topics by questions you asked. So not dodging anything; but trying to make yourself sound "good" by trying to call all people on the right side anti-gay or whatever is ignorant when just as many people on the left dislike gays too so. Plus, I don't care or give a **** what anyone thinks cause it's none of their business. I don't need to go to any pride parade or whatever nonsense it is, don't need a rainbow flag, none of it. So if trying to persuade someone because of your view of the other side is how you "win" over people, this is why a lot of people can't stand their own democratic party anymore. It's gone from conversation and debates to "With us or against us" and people are running away from it and the left side.

Better than Hillary who tries to support the fake #MeToo movement but was besties for years with Weinstein and took thousands of dollars in contributions from him and didn't know he was a predator? Bet that money won't get returned. Or for the matter remains married to a guy cheated on her in the oval office, and has several other claims of rape/sexual misconduct against him? Yea great role models on that side over there you got too. Trump slept with a porn star, what a shocker, like we didn't see that one coming. Think that actually earned him some points with a lot of people. Just saying, no ones "perfect" so take the blame where it lies equally and stop acting like one side is worse than the other. So there's your nonsense right back at you. 

 

And now I'm out of this thread for the day... hopefully. probably will drag me back though.

There are actually a lot of Americans out of work, whether from being forced out or whatever in the past... These people aren't counted with the unemployment numbers because they don't take it... but these people could get back into the work force if companies offered training and pay which they don't. The amount of people available could fill a majority of the spots.

 

Plus, immigration isn't going to stop; but a merit base system for it would be optimal. Sorry if that comes off as "racist", i know that is everyone's favorite cry these days. Clearly I can't be from my husband but yea... that argument would be useless.

 

Dang... I got drug back into this stupid thread again.

Are you sure you understand how unemployment is calculated? It's not people being on unemployment, it's people looking for a job that don't have one. Or do you mean people who just gave up on job hunting altogether? Then try either don't need a job or they're on welfare...

You're talking about Melania, right? 

Oh that's good. Blame it on the wife for her husband's actions. It's not like it's totally complicated to find out that your husband has cheated on you after he becomes president and any sort of divorce would absolutely ruin you AND your teenage child.

Having just seen the NBC article, I am also concerned. When I signed my AOS spouse and myself up for health insurance, Coverage California asked for our combined household income (my spouse is waiting for EAD so I estimated his at $0), and they advised us that we qualified for premium assistance tax credit...  now I’m wondering if I should just revert to paying the full premium, or whether my spouse will be blacklisted as a “public charge” for getting health insurance under the ACA...

No.

 

What I was saying is that placing blame on the wives for their husband's action is a very crappy thing to do.
