What Happened to the 400,000 Jobs Pelosi Promised after Healthcare ‘Reform’ Passed?
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | SusanAnne Hiller

Posted on 08/17/2010 5:24:49 PM PDT by TruthHound

Back in February 2010, Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi promised the American people that approximately 400,000 jobs would be created due to the passage of the healthcare bill.

Remember Pelosi promised this:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi at the health summit: “It’s about jobs. In it’s life, it [the health bill] will create 4 million jobs — 400,000 jobs almost immediately.”

Well, it’s almost November and the economy still hasn’t gotten any better and we have no evidence of those jobs being created.

I hope the RNC has taken note of that fact and will run with it as a prelude to the elections.

Maybe it’s because they use machines to dig and fill graves these days?

I’m sure Biden (bite me) is out looking for them. He’s one helluva sleuth you know.

I’d put up that “Find Speaker Pelosi” lips picture, but Admin Mod would just delete it again for the umpteenth time...

Hiring to start in 2014 but will take 25 years to employ all of the 400,000.

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi at the health summit: “It’s about jobs. In it’s life, it [the health bill] will create 4 million jobs — 400,000 jobs almost immediately.”

The government agencies responsible for hiring 400,000 jobs in the government sector has been a little slow getting off the ground.

Who buries anyone any more?

It’s a waste of good real estate!

Cook and dump!

Many of those Sallie Mae jobs are here in Indiana.

It’s payback for having a Republican governor (Mitch Daniels) and a high profile Dem critic in Congress (Mike Pence).

The Baraqqis have taken the “Chicago Way” and perfected it on a national level.

We live in Bizarro Land!!!! I remember a time when this witch was whining about unemployment being 5% and bitchin’ because ONLY 250,000+ jobs were being CREATED a month!!!

I also remember her saying that those HC jobs would be IMMEDIATE....I guess the MSM has long term memory problems.

400,000 hires by the Government, all SEIU Union membership required.....that’s where they create lifetime non-productive numbers to claim “new jobs”, and to add to the funding via the Unions to the DNC. A viscious circle, and gold-plated benefits, un-limited wage increases, free medical benefits, and there’s not a thing taxpayers can do to stop it (the support from the RATS dependent voters and voter fraud assure the perpetuity of this system).

You have a sick mind which, unfortunately, appears to fit our current, and upcoming, situation.

Of course, mine’s no better, so it’s good to have company.

Well, “we have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it”. BARF.

She neglected to mention it would be 400,000 Indian, Filipino and Mexican doctors, nurses and medical technicians. It’s called Medical Tourism.

Neither my or my wife's families have had funerals in over 50 years, we don't believe in them!

They are a useless pagan ritual that does nothing but waste money.

As far as i’m concerned if the government didn't intervene they can dump me in the local landfill when I croak.
