Obamacare or ObamaCant


In a recent article, The Cruel Things President Obama IsDoing To The Labor Market , by John C. Goodman, president and Kellye Wright Fellow in Health Care at the National Center for Policy Analysis, Dallas, TX, is a research fellow at The Independent Institute, Oakland, CA, and author, most recently, of “Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis” (2012, Independent Institute). This article is written to anyone wanting to be employed, employees, and employers. “Bottom line: employment opportunities are being curtailed by the imposition of ObamaCare.” Goodman has written a very clear cut article on the effects of Obamacare intertwined with raising the minimum wage, by increasing the minimum wage, this would cause a decline in job opportunities for young skilled workers. Goodman’s argument has supported evidence from the budget office and the IRS on how much this could cost us. I think in presenting this argument with the unaware people, will shock many, and because we are unaware what these “great” changes will do, we react so quickly with emotion rather than try and understand the cons and pros. I think this argument can really make me rethink what and who to believe in, when “they(political figures)” want to help the “people(you and me).” It makes you think is this a conspiracy, do I trust "them". It affects low income families, anyone unemployed and wasn’t this Obama’s “thing” to help create more jobs…. I don’t know where I stand on Obamacare because I pay for my own medical insurance but Goodman lays out a very important issue that no one really knows about or doesn’t want to know…..
