Bombshell: CBO Says ObamaCare Will Cost Equivalent of 2.3M Jobs

Third topic in three hours on this. They should be merged.

And there is a moratorium on "bombshell". It's been overdone like so many cries of wolf.
 
More evidence that commie programs produce results that are the exact opposite from their stated intent. Great job commies, great job.
 
That's a good thing for families. Moms don't have be slaves to corporations to get health care.

Translation: Now people don't have to earn what they get. They can be free riders on the backs of others.
 
Wonder what Jake will say in defense of Obama on this one...

My guess it has "you far right reactionary" somewhere in his response.
 
The CBO is little more than a political abacus used by both parties to mislead and misrepresent.

For instance- the Obamites promised us, with the full backing of the CBO!! that Obamacare would "cut the deficit". :rofl:

Now seriously folks, does anyone really believe that bullshit? Of course if you collect 10 years of revenue, and only provide 4 years of benefits it is possible....but not in the real world. :lol:

I am confident of only one thing when it comes to the CBO- someone is putting garbage in to get political garbage out.......
 

Fox Spin is fun!

On Tuesday, the agency released a more detailed estimate that includes how ordinary Americans would react to those changes by employers. Some would choose to keep Medicaid rather than take a job at reduced wages. Others, who typically do not work full-time, would delay returning to work in order to keep subsidies for private insurance that are provided under the law....

The reduction in employment from the health care law “includes some people choosing not to work at all and other people choosing to work fewer hours than they would have in the absence of the law,” the CBO said...


White House officials added that the CBO report also rebuts a key claim of Republicans — that the law has already had a significant impact on employment, including increasing the number of part-time workers.

..The estimated reduction stems almost entirely from a net decline in the amount of labor that workers choose to supply, rather than from a net drop in businesses’ demand for labor, so it will appear almost entirely as a reduction in labor force participation and in hours worked relative to what would have occurred otherwise rather than as an increase in unemployment (that is, more workers seeking but not finding jobs) or underemployment (such as part-time workers who would prefer to work more hours per week)...

It says workers are so attached to their healthcare that they will give up hours just to qualify for affordable plans
