Is stupidity Invisible?

America's Obamacare, I harp on that a bit much I know but, it's so stupid on the face of it. It's supposed to make health care more affordable by making everybody buy health insurance. But, insurance companies have to take in more in premiums than they pay out in benefits or they would go out of business. So, a person will pay more for healthcare in the long run because they are not only paying for the health service but for the insurance company too. Stupid! Did no one think of this at the beginning?

Another example: The cost of refrigeration tripled in the US with the introduction of THE CLEAN AIR ACT section 608 and the Montreal Protocol which is a law intended to protect the Ozone layer from destruction by CFC refrigerant gasses such as R-11 and R-12. But, did anyone think to ask . "What Ozone layer?" .3-.4 parts per million of Ozone is a layer?

What the heck is ozone anyway? It's kind of a perverted oxygen molecule. Instead of having two atoms of oxygen in the molecule it has three. It is supposed to protect the earth from the sun's ultraviolet radiation. How does it do that? I'm so glad that you asked. When the UV light hits it, the ozone breaks apart thus removing some of the energy. How did we get ozone in the first place? The same thing (or just about) happens when you subject plain old oxygen to UV. It breaks apart and sometimes forms ozone.
DAHHHH.....
