Conservative America is forced to fund propaganda against itself.

The left has managed to tax us conservatives in order to pay for think tanks called universities, radio propaganda called National Public Radio, television propaganda called Public Broadcasting, endless television advertising by Public Service Unions while at the same time deploying government agencies such as the IRS to muzzle conservative organs of opinion.

The left uses tax dollars to gin up studies to rig CBO reports upon which it bases legislation to obtain more tax dollars from a deceived public. It will soon fashion regulations designed to enable them in time to censor the Internet.

Jonathan Gruber is but a metaphor for the whole stinking spoils system.

YOU CAN GET RICH OFF OF PROMOTING SOCIALIST BOONDOGGLES!!!

Idiots and crooks love to brag how they scored thousands in crime and fraud but its usually done in some dive bar or at least after some drinking. Of course this thieving PhD is gonna brag and shoot his mouth off..... I am sure the gossip was hot n heavy among his acolytes and colleagues about all the millions he was raking in

His undoing and hopefully 0Kare's undoing

Well. Of course he did. He’s not stupid

Of course anyone who seeks to destroy this country for ideological or selfish purposes is by nature stupid, but not in the short term

And there will be hell to pay

And he’s not having a good time at the moment, with his $5.9 m. So how stupid is that? And stupid is getting filmed like that

But I’m not MIT.

Four U.S. states and the federal government (read taxpayers) have padded Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber's wallet to the tune of $5.9 million since 2000, including millions connected to his work on the Affordable Care Act.

We need investigations---to see how our tax dollars changed hands---and landed into Gruber's pockets. The disdainful, preening Gruber was paid tax dollars to spin his web of lies...and to reiterate his contempt for taxpayers who are footing the bills.

Even more disturbing is the massive, multi-billion-dollar slush fund the self-serving Gruber hid from "stupid" Americans in Obamacare. Gruber made dam sure it was kept hidden from us stupid taxpayers.

=========================================

The Untraceable $8 Billion ObamaCare PR Budget---truly govt fraud at its finest. Egged on by Pelosi, Democrats slavishly voted for Obamacare by an historic straignt-party line vote. But not one Democrat told Americans about Obamacare's Section 4002---which mandates an $8B untraceable fund to "promote" Obamacare (apparently b/c Boobamba had so little confidence in his signature legislation).

THE PAYOFF--WHO GETS THE MONEY? In 2010 Taxpayers are extorted $500 million, in 2011, $750 million, 2012, $1 billion, 2013, $1.25 billion, 2014, $1.5 billion, and, in 2015 and on, $2 billion

<><> Where is all that money going?

<><> Was cashing-in the incentive in getting the thing passed?

==================================================

Taxpayers demand to know ---- why Gruber/Obama/Pelosi didnt reveal that Obamacare contains a multi-billion dollar slush fund?

Exactly who is cashing in?

The sound of wire-transfers to offshore banks is almost palbable.

=========================================================

Maybe Gruber can write a new comic book entitled:

HOW TO BE A MILLIONAIRE BY HIDING A MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR SLUSH FUND IN FEDERAL LEGISLATION

As a legal question, is it possible to recover some of this $5.9 million, as the contractor has now admitted that he supplied fraudulent work to the government? And that he lied to the Congress, to the CBO, to the Media and to the American People expressly to get a piece of legislation passed? How is that not fraud?

The ‘Gruber Microsimulation Model’ is what he sold to the White House. It helped Obama’s team anticipate what the influential Congressional Budget Office (CBO) would say about various features of the final plan – and whether their costs would officially be considered ‘taxes.’

...

I wonder if he had a separate model for Supreme Court.

This is just another example of the two critical ways we need to look at anything liberals are involved in:

1. Cui Bono or who benefits ,when bs surrounds and covers up or shrouds their overt or covert actions with any activity with libs in control of where money and power can be gained.

2. Follow the money after #1.

6 Grubergate videos so far make Nixon’s little missing tape minutes look like a sniffle in preschool.

First You Tube link to Gruber bragging about lying to stupid American Voters about ObozoCare.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G790p0LcgbI

Second Grubergate Video link to Gruber bragging about how stupid American voters are/were to pass ObozoCare.

http://hotair.com/archives/2014/11/12/gruber-video-2-no-really-american-voters-are-stupid/

Third Video from Herr Gruber on stupid Americans wanting Obozocare.

http://weaselzippers.us/205230-three-strikes-third-video-of-obamacare-architect-jonathan-gruber-calling-americans-stupid/

Fourth Grubergate video from Herr Gruber re stupid Americans.

http://www.c-span.org/video/?292478-1/health-care-reform

Remember zero Republicans in Congress voted for ObozoCare. Every stupid rat in Congress voted for it without reading the bill or caring what was in it.

Fifth Grubergate video from Herr Gruber re stupid Americans, Fifth Video Emerges, Showing Gruber Mocking Man Worried About Obamacare

And he earned every penny.

Let’s say he received $6 million. If he billed hourly at a rate of $500 per hour, that’s 12,000 hours; if he billed at an hourly rate of $1000/hr, that’s 6,0000 hours of work.

Now, there are only about 2,000 billable working hours in a year (40 hours/week, 50 weeks).

So, either:
- Mr. Gruber did little else, and this was his main job for a number of years, or
- His hourly rate was astronomically higher,
- Or, (most likely) he engaged in a lot of double and triple billing, re-selling the same model with variations to multiple government entities and states.

I haven’t seen any other comments along these lines, so I thought I’d raise this.

There is now in the USA language/lexicon a new word, i.e. gruber. The word gruber means ‘telling a deliberate lie that is not/cannot be apparent to decent/truthful expression’. Grubers like to show off in high surroundings such as political venues and universities.
