Exactly what the RAT party wanted. This was never about health care, NEVER.

Been saying that for two years now. BUT what do we have running the GOP led House? This moron -
Boehner: House Will Fund Obamacare in CR; Won't Risk 'Shutting Down the Government'
So afraid of the media and his own shadow that he will allow Obamacare to become as firmly entrenched as SS and Medicare all the while holding "Pretend Votes" to repeal the Act knowing it will never even get to a vote in the RAT?WH run Senate. Truly despicable as a GOP leader.

It’s all about margin.
Remember the Reagan Revolution was a change in MARGINAL rates, meaning it encouraged that “extra effort”.
This raises the bar the opposite way, makes “less effort” worth more bennies.

What is this “could” stuff?...I would posit that this effect, perhaps even more, has already occurred.

OK. So what's the big deal?
We'll simply replace them at their jobs by some of the 30 million new low skilled, uneducated "immigrants" who will work for peanuts. It's the kind of deal where everybody wins!

the notion that people start looking for work when they lose insurance from some govt entity is fine and good. It makes no sense whatsoever that people looking for work somehow leads to jobs. It certainly will be the case with Ocare since theres plenty of empirical evidence it has retarded hiring but people searching for jobs does not foster job growth.
Besides comparing the labor market of the 1990’s to that of today is not quite appropriate and i’m being kind.

“Exactly what the RAT party wanted.”
Maybe, but the ‘Stupid Party’ was mighty complicit in this as well. In fact, since the Roberts’ decision, I heven’t seen a whole lot of pushback from th Pubbies either. Too busy pushing amnesty I guess.

Obama has already put that many people out of work and onto welfare, called extended unemployment and food stamps. Everyone who is working two jobs to scrape by when one job used to get them ahead can thank Obama. Obamacare is the straw that breaks the camels back, and the vultures on the left can’t wait for it to happen.

Pass it to see what’s in it. When Pelosi said that and the retards still voted for obama, it proves they have no idea what’s going on.
This is all designed to brink the country down. obama, and all who pull his strings, no you can’t tax someone who’s not working.

With this monstrosity you can not be middle income and survive it. You either need to be rich or you need to cut your income back to poverty level so that you don’t have to pay for it. If you do have to pay for it(or the fine in a few years) then it can take you from getting by to being so poor that you can’t possibly pay your bills.
