Well, the Democrats own this bill. It’s amazing to think that not a single Republican, in either House or Senate, voted for this Frankenstein’s monster of a bill.

Politically, Democrata are stuck with all the blame when bad things happen because of their bill.

Again...the left's "unintended consequences" rears its ugly head...

I say to all businesses, either cancel all health benefits, or shut your doors over obamacare.

It's just a TAX...it's not healthcare in any sense.

I think they want to collect the taxes until 2014, using the money to promote their agenda, and then cancel or greatly reduce the "health care" part of the bill just before it's scheduled to take effect.

We are going to witness a spectacular implosion of Leftism and the dem party as the dominoes keep falling, their desire to WIN HCR at all costs caused them to write a stupid unworkable and destructive bill that doesn’t do anything at all to improve health care, only destroys it.

Popcorn time.

So why didn’t large and small business speak out?

Silence is consent.

They simply will pass the cost on....Makes me more picky about buying products from any business..

Businesses, in particular Caterpillar, said this would hurt them long before the vote took place. The Democrats just didn’t want to listen. Perhaps we should all send them Q-tips to clean their ears so they can HEAR us all better.

The dems don’t understand basic supply and demand. They flaunt this in this healthcare mess, they will be spectacularly wrong on their deficit predictions, jobs lost as a result of it, costs to taxpayers, the number of doctors that will quit and the lines to wait that will build.

I've been saying for sometime that in the long run, the best that could happen would be if the idiots did pass this thing. Let's remember, it was written by people who have never had a private sector job, don't understand capitalism, and therefore cannot see unintended consequences.

The passage of this bill is going to inflict noticeable pain, and in the end will spell the defeat of the Democratic Party at a minimum, and perhaps liberalism itself will be relegated to the trash can where it belongs.

I originally thought when Obama was elected with a majority of Democrats that they would pass a bunch of tax increases that would cause much pain. I thought that this might lead to electing a radical libertarian who would be forced to end things like social security and medicare, and make deep cuts to defense and infrastructure.

Then the financial implosion hit and I got sidelined along with everyone else into doom and gloom and the sideshow of the arm twisting to pass the agenda. We are looking at this totally the wrong way. For years, I've had to argue with liberals about why their policies won't work. Now they have a chance to actually implement them and the blind idiots will be forced to see their views were wrong in the face of overwhelming evidence. No that they will ever admit they were wrong of course. They'll just shift their views and pretend they believed us all along, because that's what liberals do.

So now, I'm going back to my original thoughts. I thought it would take another 25 to 30 years before people got around to realizing that SS and Medicare were unsustainable, but with the "stimulus" package and the health care reform package(2 trillion in spending over the next 10 years, by their own numbers), this means that Obama has basically killed SS. It cannot be saved, because before these bills were passed, the projection was that it would be broke in 2034, and that even then people would be paying 70=80% in taxes to support it. But now, we are going to those kind of tax rates in the next few years. And because they spent 1 trillion dollars already, they can't paper it over any more. What happens in the coming years when the projected income from the new taxes does not materialize and the 2 trillion(stimulus + health care) balloons into 3? When we have massive layoffs and such? Does Obama become a dictator? Nope, because he does not control the military or the people who own guns. So what will happen?

A massive libertarian taker over of the government, that's what. Not that I think it's going to be good, because they are going to have to cut everything, including things that are good, to make ends meet. We'll all suffer, but only silver lining I can think of is that eventually, the end of SS, medicare, and welfare will be blamed on Barak Obama.

Don’t we all just love the way the Obamedia keeps insisting that the ObieCare divide is strictly “along party lines” though?? Who knew that 2/3 of the country are Republican? How did Hussein get elected dictator then?
