Someone Should Start a Thread on the Obamacare "Bailout"...

Having not been born in OKC, but just choosing to reside in this great state I will say that being from OKC is the only thing Elizabeth Warren has going for her. No one.. and I mean NO ONE... here likes her. Well, maybe a few of the Cherokees she claims to be related to, but can't prove even though she claims Cherokee heritage.

 

I --- am --- typing --- this --- response --- slowly --- hoping --- you --- understand --- the --- concept.

If --- an --- employer --- hires --- a --- replacement ---- at --- the --- same --- number --- of --- working --- hours --- as --- the --- worker --- who --- volunatrily --- resigns --- or --- reassigns --- those --- lost --- work --- hours --- to --- established --- employees --- then --- the --- net --- effect --- on --- FTEs --- would --- equal --- ZERO.

Do you know what a FTE is?

 

It did not.


"CBO Director: Actually, Obamacare Will Reduce Unemployment"

 

Here is your quote. Please tell me how it does not say Obamacare will reduce employment. Before you try to redefine "reduce", I mean employment will be less with Obamacare than without Obamacare.

 

That is not how most people read his testimony;

Eddie Munster entered into politics?

Holy @#$%, this period of time really is messed-up!

Eh, no problem, he's small fish. Bigger fish will come along and eat 'im up, so-to-speak. It's just the way it works, everything needs food, right?

mmmmmmmm.....Munster...(licks lips)....anyone got a lemon? I bet it'll go real good with that chunk of crispy Christie sizzling away. Variety is the spice of life, after all. I promised myself I wouldn't eat much, and I won't, but there's so much variety....and so little time....eh, I'll work it off, no problem.

 

Was the following a typo?

The reduction in CBO's projections of hours worked represents a decline in the number of full-time-equivalent workers of about 2.0 million in 2017, rising to about 2.5 million in 2024. Although CBO projects that total employment (and compensation) will increase over the coming decade, that increase will be smaller than it would have been in the absence of the ACA.

The question I have is why did the CBO decide to provide the information based in FTEs? An employee whose average work week is 20 hours - well that equals only 1/2 an FTE. An employee whose average work week is 30 hours only equals 3/4 an FTE.

Were they trying to cover-up the fact that the actual number of employees who will voluntarily withdraw from the labor force due to Obamacare will be sigificantly greater than 2.5 million?

 

OOPS!!!!
