You’d think if they can recall and fix 1.9 million priuses they can repeal a friggin law.

Just something simple: The Affordable Care Act, is entirely and completely repealed. It is declared cancelled, and considered null and void.

The best thing about owning a Prius is how loud and clear the radio can play NPR. Really remarkable. You can hear the snobbish condescension like you were right there in Trader Joe’s with them.
