Obama Heralds 1.1M Private Sector Jobs Created Since Jan.

No I hated the business part of my gig. I liked...no loved making images.




You are linking a right wing blog. What does the bls say about it:lamo

Right wing blog? It was all over the Business news today, CNN, CNBC, Fox Business. Seems the MSM buried it though, wonder why? Stop with the bs and think for a change. 111 waivers!! Opting out of Obamacare!! Do you have that option? Why would all these businesses, many of whom are Obama supporters and unions, opt out of a program that you and others tout as being so great? Do some research, find out who opted out. Frustrating that you and others would continue to support this Administration and program in light of what is going on, guess burying your head makes it easier to accept.

So it was all over the mass media yet the mass media buried it? LOL:lamo

Haven't heard cable called the MSM before but as usual you divert from the real issue here. You cannot even be honest once as everything here is a game with you. Must be tough for someone with your ego to actually see how you have been duped by this empty suit in the WH and the corrupt Administration he has brought to D.C. You don't have to admit it as we know it.

Ahhh back to the rhetoric I see.
 
That coming from you... is about to open a rift in the space time continuum

Good, glad you jumped in, maybe you can explain why 111 entities were granted waivers out of Obamacare with many of them being unions and supporters of the President? Interesting that such a great program for the American people would cause constituents of the Democrat Party to opt out and be allowed to do so by Obama. Since this is such a wonderful program and will benefit us all, I just cannot imagine why something like this would be allowed to happen. I look forward to having an Obama supporter explain it to us
 
BTW how is Texas going to make up that 12 billion in matching funds for medicaid?

You ask questions as a diversion from answering questions. If TX opts out of Medicaid there won't be any need to offset the 12 billion in Federal funding because there won't be any Medicaid in this state to administer.

Now how about answering mine, what about those 111 entities that were granted waivers from the Obama Administration and have opted out of Obamacare? Don't they understand how great this program is for them and their employees? Guess the found out what was in the bill after it got passed. Explain that to us all? Did you get your waiver?

So what happens to the people that get medicaid now?

All you did was link to a right wing blog so Im not really sure what you are talking about.

If you are so concerned about it, why don't you contact the state govt?

Watch the video, it isn't a rightwing blog. Do some research for a change, you might just find out how you have been duped by this Administration. Tried to tell you and I get great pride out of saying, "see, I told you so!"

Speaking of dodging.....
 
So they are working with the system in a flexible manner. What's the big deal?

Now, what about the people in Texas already on medicare should Texas opt out of the medicare program and the 12 billion in matching funds?

LOL, yep, opting out is working with the system. So much for this wonderful program that was sold by Obama and bought by people like you. Did you get your waiver?

I answered your question what about answering mine now?
 
I answered your question what about answering mine now?

No, you didn't answer my question, if this healthcare program is so good why are the big contributors to the Obama Administration opting out? What do they know that the rest of us don't?

Obamacare was jammed down the throats of all Americans and we were told it was great for us all yet now 111 waivers have been granted and the number growing. Where is that transparency, where is that hope and change promised, where is that honesty promised by this Administration? This should be front page news for all to see but isn't and you continue to defend this Administration?

Why don't you try reading the article from the Time you posted?

Now it is your turn to answer a question

what about the people in Texas already on medicare should Texas opt out of the medicare program and the 12 billion in matching funds?

Or are going to go back into rhetoric mode?

111 entities are opting out of the Obamacare program that was sold on being the best thing for the American people. Check out the list of those opting out, mostly unions and other Obama supporters.

this should be headline news but is being buried. Guess you will defend this Administration regardless of how foolish it makes you look.

Wouldn't it be better worrying about why 111 entities and growing got a waiver from Obamacare instead of focusing on something else that hasn't happened yet and may not happen? All diversion which you do when backed into a corner and unable to defend your position.

So go start a newspaper:roll:
 
First of all, neither of you have a clue as to what kind of jobs were created during the Bush years but continue to buy the liberal rhetoric. All you need to do is go to BLS.gov to find out but that would take too much effort.

Then you tout the accomplishments of your Democrat Governor. Interesting that you give your Democrat Gov. credit for creating jobs but blame President Bush for not creating jobs so which is it? So apparently Bush lost jobs but your governor created them?

Look what i found at my now fav site.:2wave:

As usual, I disagree with a couple things and agree with a couple, first that the Democrats are indeed not blameless for the fiscal and health care blunder as they controlled the entire legislative process including a time when they had a filibuster proof Senate. I also believe the stimulus was very poorly constructed and since it was poorly constructed we don't know if it was too small or not. Reagan got us out of a worse recession at much lower the cost.

There is a major difference between a recession that resulted from curbing inflation, and a recession that rendered the global financial system insolvent without bailouts. China enacted a stimulus package that was nearly 10% of GDP, and they were not nearly as shaken as the US.

As for the healthcare bill, are you trying to tell me that this country needs the public option? Where are you going to find doctors and hospitals to participate? The public option takes incentive out of the process and thus will destroy the economy like it has in Europe. Most countries there are trying to undo decades of socialism. There is no way that the public option makes this country stronger economically.

Private insurance companies can easily compete with a public option because they have the ability to offer policies tailored to the individual, and from that they derive a great deal of value. As it stands, 62% of bankruptcies in the U.S. are health care related. Physical and mental health is a critical component to a productive workforce, and this extends beyond the job, e.g. employee dependents. The average cost of an independent health care plan for a family of 4 is around $16,000, and that excludes medical deductibles, out of pocket expenses, etc....

Our health care system operates on the basis of unsustainable price increases.
