“Analysts suggest that the total first-quarter hit to S&P 500 firms will be $4.5 billion. “

Sounds a bit low to me. ATT alone was one billion.

So, Big Business.... How’s those campaign dollars working out for you? Most large corps give money to both Dems and Repubs hoping to gain a little influence and stave off the wolves. Doesn’t work work Marxists, though.

This is how the b*stards will play the game - offer a counterpoint, however ludicrous, to every criticism for the lickspittle media to run with.

I'm surprised they haven't taken it to this extreme before now.

It wont matter though. Soon the destruction caused by this pretend president's policies with be painfully obvious to everyone.

And I do mean painfully.

It’s understandable some of these Dims would be upset that businesses are pointing out the negative impact Obamacare will have. The Dims, including Obama, most likely had/have no clue what the impact of the monstrosity they passed will have throughout the economy.

Waxman and Stupak ask for company documents including accounting analyses and the internal emails of all "senior company officials" related to the projected costs of ObamaCare

But...but...Stupak is a MODERATE Democrat! I'm shocked!

This is intimidation, plain and simple.

The various companies should tell congress to go to hell.

Is there nothing that the states can do to protect their businesses from this?

If true they need to show up with charts and show them.

At every turn, Democrats demonstrate their inability to understand the Bill of Rights. Methinks they are going to get a needed lesson if they pursue this...

The Democrat thugs in Congress get away with this because the MSM protect them. If Republicans did the same thing to, say, Apple, just try to imagine how the corrupt MSM would scream bloody murder.

Are private companies required to turn over any documents to Congress? This is a witch hunt if I ever saw one.

When the producers stop producing there is nothing to tax.
With no taxes the Dems crumble. They can’t exist without your money. Hide your capital and let their system fail.
