  • Try explaining that to the typical Republican party voter, though. All they know is “Obamacare BAD!” because that’s the message that has been pumped into their brains non-stop for the last 10 years. When you actually start explaining the specific things that the ACA established they’ll say, “Oh yeah, that seems like a really good thing, we should do that!” They don’t understand that ACA and Obamacare are the same thing.

    We are inundated with these sort of low-information voters who don’t understand how their representatives are literally screwing them over while blaming the other side for all their woes.




  • An emulsion like mayonnaise is not a pure fat, though. It’s a mixture of different fats (both saturated and poly-unsaturated) and water. The mixture is stabilized by emulsifying agents like lecithin that interact with both the fats and the water. When all theses ingredients are blended together with enough force they create an arrangement that is semi-solid at room temperature, yes. But you can’t compare that fairly to a pure fat. If you try, you’re missing the point.

    That said, mayo is a great replacement for butter in some situations. Try spreading a little on bread before toasting it in a hot skillet.
