| In part, yes. And we are also starting to see the affects of the current administration's policies, which are making things worse, not better. With well over 100 new regulations enacted since 2009, new start-up businesses (which mean new jobs) are way down, prohibiting any real relief in unemployment. Companies are declaring bankruptcy and fleeing the US market (see Suzuki USA Automotive and their reasons for doing so). Obamacare has not yet been fully implimented, but at the end of this year, when American citizens start paying an additional $2500 Obamacare tax (meaning if you received a $5000 this year, you will only get $2500 next year), as well as the estimated $1200 fine for the misdemeanor violations of not having insurance that will have to be paid by more than 6 million Americans (80% of which will be the working poor making less than $55,000), making them all criminals simply for not purchasing private healthcare insurance, things will start to get much, much worse. "We have to pass this bill before we can know what's in it". What a crock...and what a bunch of idiots for listening and going along. Right now Democrats are trying to find ways to delay the full implementation of Obamacare until after the 2014 elections, because they know that once it is fully implemented and the culprits responsible for foisting this travesty upon the American public are identified, they will all be out of jobs. Like I said....it will get worse. Much, much worse. |
