The increase in taxes that UHC would require would pretty much negate any advantages where economic growth is concerned. Unless they are talking about some really draconian rationing of medical care, which people are not going to stand for.
Don't believe that. We're paying the penalty, and expanding. The effect is just not that large. 2% spread out among all employees. Hell, we've had larger increases nearly every year before Obama was even elected.
