RICHARD SIMMONS BIZARRE VIDEO TO INCREASE INTEREST AMONG YOUNG PEOPLE

/>There are no words to describe what happened Friday during a live event held by Covered California designed to increase interest among young people in the Affordable Care Act.</p> <p style= Actually… there are words: insane, perplexing, inexplicable, and psychologically scarring come to mind.

What was billed as a “live celebration of the 35 million Americans who now gain access to affordable health insurance under the Affordable Care Act,” the six and a half hour event rapidly — almost immediately — devolved into a celebration of the offbeat and eccentric. And it was fitness guru Richard Simmons who took us there.

Millennials, the state of California must suppose, are total idiots. There is no other way to explain why they would hold this manner of event in order to coax and cajole the young people necessary to ensure that the ACA remains financially viable to sign up for semi-affordable insurance.

At least you can get a quick laugh out of Simmons and his friend wildly gyrating. And do we really need a cause in order to enjoy that? Of course not.

I think it's OK for the OP to have an agenda, many posters do.

I thought the video (the parts that I watched) were very odd and in some places in poor taste to say the least, and cost a LOT of money to produce, frankly it looked like there was no producer......

When I watched that video it made me sick to watch it. Bad taste to the max.

Did the Tax Payers pay for that junk?
