Stunner… Dems Wrong Again – Obamacare Didn’t Stimulate Job Creation, It Killed It

During the Health Care Summit in 2010 Nancy Pelosi, the worst House speaker in US history, claimed that passing Obamacare would create 400,000 jobs “almost immediately.”

Unfortunately for us, Pelosi was wrong about this too.

Private sector job creation has ground almost to a halt since Obama and Pelosi rammed through O-care.
The Heritage Foundation reported, via HotAir:

Private-sector job creation initially recovered from the recession at a normal rate, leading to predictions last year of a “Recovery Summer.” Since April 2010, however, net private-sector job creation has stalled. Within two months of the passage of Obamacare, the job market stopped improving. This suggests that businesses are not exaggerating when they tell pollsters that the new health care law is holding back hiring. The law significantly raises business costs and creates considerable uncertainty about the future. To encourage hiring, Congress should repeal Obamacare.

What a horrible ignorant woman.

I doubt that commie Pelosi gives a d*** about the private sector; ObamaCare is designed to “create” tens of thousands of gummit jobs, and those are the only jobs she cares about.

Surely you’re not surprised. From the Party that thinks you can tax & spend your way to prosperity. That raising taxes creates jobs. That can’t get their head around the fact that “revenues” as a %GDP are down because of unemployment and the uncertainty businesses face. They keep conflating revenue and taxes. So the obvious solution – raise taxes.

They’ll never figure out how to implement the monstrosity. They should’ve dealt with only those who aren’t covered. Instead they create a beaurocratic nightmare for businesses with predictable results of unintended consequences just like “shovel-ready” jobs not being “shovel-ready.”

I don’t think the idea of that clusterfark of a plan was to actually provide health care. It was more to bankrupt the country and punish us.

Just received this stunning revelation from a post over at the “Belmont Club”

http://pajamasmedia.com/richardfernandez/2011/07/19/and-i-think-its-going-to-rain-today/#comments

Somebody took the time to actually read all of Bamacare!

Here’s a summary:

One of my close friends had some down time this year. Used it to find and READ the 2,000 page bill commonly called “Obamacare,” and made copious notes. Several things he observed:

(1) The %$&@!!s who published the document deliberately made it UNSEARCHABLE — there are NO internal hyperlinks, nor built-in text search functions.

(2) Definitions and descriptions of complex new regulations and structures such as panels, commissions, and other authorities, are deliberately presented in bits and pieces, with many terms and qualifications defined by obscure references to other legislation, pending bills, or regulations. Links do not exist, only the legal TITLES of the referenced sources. If you want to know what the Obamacare bill has established, you have to go find and read scores of completely separate documents, which must each be located inependently.

(3) Of those bureaucracies and commissions that CAN be understood from the text included in the bill, it is clear that the intent is to create numerous new “authorities” which are given un-restricted power to set, then INTERPRET AND APPLY regulations without any oversight or moderation by Congress WHATSOEVER. IN many instances, a commission or SINGLE ADMINISTRATOR is empowered to decide on the treatment or application or request by a citizen, and the administrator’s decision is defined by the Obamacare legislation as FINAL; not subject to review or appeal by any other body or authority whatsoever.

My friend made the comment that with such provisions in Obamacare and in many other bills the Dems have put up for votes and passed, they are simply setting in place a SHADOW GOVERNMENT like that of the European Union. That is, they’re creating a government which completely by-passes the elected one defined by our trampled Constitution — run by faceless bureaucrats appointed without the public knowing who they are, much less having any recourse from their decisions. The encyclopedic stacks of regulations issued monthly by the EU have become legendary. We will have the same avalanche, which allows the Demons to hide ANYTHING.

When you have a constant firehose of regulations on every conceivable aspect of human activity, contradictions are not a problem for the “rulers” — they are put in intentionally, so as to allow the tormenters to be able to cite whichever regulation supports their every conceivable decision. Inconsistency can therefor NEVER be the basis of complaint.

The nation we love is in the thrall of MONSTERS.

We can complain all we want and it won’t make a hill of beans. The Trust Fund Socialists that control our Puppet President are already rich, elitist boors no one wants to listen to. They have noting but contempt for common, everyday Americans while they also to expect us to, as John Forbes (Kohn) Kerry likes to say “Do you know who I am?”

Yeah, I do and the end of the line is around the corner.

This country needs a return to citizen-legislators and get rid of the pollution known and ‘Professional Politicians’.

Someone was ahead of the curve going all the way back to October 2010: Anyone notice that the economy flatlined the minute after ObamaCare was signed into law? I opined back then: “I claim, based on the US Department of Labor data that ObamaCare is likely the causal factor for causing the stagnation that we have now. And just wait until the inflation kicks in from the overspending, borrowing and printing of money by this regime. It’ll make the stagflation of the Carter era seem like Utopia. Obama is focused only on his liberal agenda, not on jobs.”
