Sheep Game: USpol Edition

Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Sat Jun 27, 2020 4:34 pm

Hello, I'm stealing this game from Knightmare491 who did a fantastic job running the last game. This time there are 16 questions, and they are all about the 2020 US Presidential Election!

Your goal is to answer not what you think is objectively the most

correct

answer, but instead the answer that you think the most other people will also answer. You get one point per person who answers with the same answer as you.

Spoiler: Here are the questions...

So just fill out THIS GOOGLE FORM with your answers. Good luck!

When going for a person I ruled you do have to get the specific name. On non-person questions there's a bit more leeway as demonstrated here:

5) If Donald Trump retains the presidency and the Republicans take back control of both the House and Senate, this will be the first bill Trump signs into law, in one to three words.

No. The two are INCREDIBLY different.

Post Post #69 (isolation #23) » Thu Jul 16, 2020 7:36 pm

The short version is that Obamacare expanded the current system to enroll more people, cover more things, and lower premiums, but it's still the old system of private health insurance mostly paid for by employers. Medicare For All is closer to a single-payer system where there would be no premiums or deductibles, and private insurance would only cover services not covered under MFA.
