Can’t be more specific but just got word that a medical group which was planning to expand into a new high tech field, met after the election and killed the expansion due to worries about aspects of Obamacare. So jobs, money, and new treatment facilities will now be lost.

and killed the expansion due to worries about aspects of Obamacare. So jobs, money, and new treatment facilities will now be lost.

And that is something that rarely makes the news or is difficult to grasp by the electorate. While we look at people who actually lose their jobs, we sometimes fail to comprehend or communicate the number of jobs that are never created in the first place.

It's easy to quantify a layoff. More difficult to quantify a job that was never created. The latter in many ways being even more damaging than the former.
