Last week, the Congressional Budget Office released a report discussing the ramifications of Obamacare. The report revealed that the work-hour equivalent of approximately 2.5 million jobs would disappear from the workforce, thanks to Obamacare, in a voluntary process in which employees would simply dump out of their jobs, knowing they could get health care through expanded Medicaid and federal subsidies they would lose by working.
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., an ideological leftist thought leader, spun the report as a massive positive for Obamacare: "The single mom, who's raising three kids (and) has to keep a job because of health care, can now spend some time raising those kids. That's a family value." And Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., celebrated the report as a defeat for the dreaded condition known as "job lock" -- the situation in which you have to stick at a job you don't like for the benefits. "We have the CBO report," Reid stated, "which rightfully says, that people shouldn't have job lock. If they -- we live in a country where there should be free agency. People can do what they want." But, of course, people can only do what they want by taxing other Americans, borrowing from foreign creditors, and burdening future generations with unsustainable debt. And unfortunately, Schumer's proclamation that the greatest beneficiaries of Obamacare will be single mothers turns out to be false: One of the studies relied upon by the CBO stated that those who benefit from the end of job lock are disproportionately white, single and of work age. http://www.truthrevolt.org/commentary/shapiro-why-democrats-hate-work |

I wonder if irony works as well as liberal tears for gun lubrication. |

So women are scolded for working and not staying home with the kids but when they find a way to make it work they are called lazy. Going on fucking welfare is "finding a way to make it work"? Here we go I have to mark this moment this is the first time I have heard this called "welfare". That is a nice way to refer to an insurance plan that while paid for is also subsidized. |

Leaving work, earning no income, receiving benefits, sounds like welfare to me. Also, since she is no longer working what other benefits will the rest of her neighbors be paying for? That she would be forced to leave a job because of a poorly constructed law that was sold on a pack of lies is unconscionable. As someone who was raised by a single mother bringing up 5 kids and working full time hours I do have some background in this. Not sure where you are getting the whole "scolded for going to work thing". Most here support those who do what they can to pull their weight. |
