now they can get quality affordable health care. First, they are on subsidy so they aren't making enough to do much other than stay home. Forget starting a business.

The ACA will allow 2.5 million to quit their jobs to either take other jobs, start businesses or stay at home. Because now they can get quality affordable health care. That in itself should be clear as to how much better it is than the extortion going on before. But in addition, when people quit jobs that opens up a spot for an unemployed person, plus when people quit to start businesses it creates jobs. So the ACA create jobs, not reduce them. That will reduce the unemployment rate and save people money for their health care. That is about one of the biggest fairy tales I've ever heard. No one. Not CBO. Not any competent analyst of think tank. NO ONE. Has claimed the ACA would create jobs and it is as close to being economically impossible as anything I've ever heard.
