DemocratCare will reduce full time employment

[Doug]

According to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the Democrat Care law, AKA the Affordable Care Act, will convince over 2 million people to switch from full time work to part time work because the subsidies for healthcare increase as income goes down. This is in addition to those who will be forced into part time work by employers who don't want to provide healthcare.
This will, of course, increase the national debt and reduce economic growth.
Welcome to the downward spiral.

Health-care law will prompt over 2 million to quit jobs or cut hours, a CBO report says - The Washington Post

I hate the ACA as much as anyone, but to this point, no one has come up with any thoughts on what to do about it. What I have heard so far are horror stories and theories on how things are going to get worse. Someone give me some legitimate input on how to kill that thing and I am in!

Unfortunately, we have to change the content of congress and the white house to do that.
The Republicans have several plans to replace and/or alter Democare to make it workable.

We have to get rid of the in the nation.
Your image is about the only way of doing it.
Way too many people have the 'entitlement mentality' that the .gov should give them everything.

This conclusion from the CBO (which is typically rosey with its forecasts) is patently obvious to anyone with a working knowledge of economics.

People have been deluded into thinking that ideology can overcome reality. It doesn't work for either side of the isle.

There are plenty of alternatives that have been proposed.

Also, the White House is fighting to make this good news... saying that people will no longer be trapped, or stuck working long hours.

Because somehow people working less is good for the country.
