Was health care reform right to do AFTER the Recover Act? Absolutely.
Why? Because the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has it's own revenue stream and creates jobs. The law has not caused DEFICIT spending, in reality, it's revenue stream has assisted in rebolstering the USA Treasury.
In California alone the ACA is estimated to have started 100,000 new jobs.
A new study by the Bay Area Council Economic Institute (click here) suggests that if the Supreme Court strikes down the Affordable Care Act, it may have a negative impact on the California economy.

The study, The Economic Impact of the Affordable Care Act on California. concludes that the federal health care law would create almost 100,000 new jobs across California and boost economic output by $4.4 billion. The biggest expected job gains occur in Southern California, with almost 58,000 new jobs, followed by the Sacramento Valley with almost 13,500 new jobs, the Bay Area with 7,600 jobs, San Diego County with almost 6,500 jobs and the remaining 10,000 jobs spread throughout other counties.
“In the debate over the federal health care law, this study shows there has been more heat than light when it comes to understanding economic and jobs impacts,” said Jon Haveman, study co-author and chief economist for the Bay Area Council Economic Institute, the research arm of the Bay Area Council. “By focusing on expanding health insurance coverage, making our health care system more efficient and making our workforce healthier, we can realize important employment and economic gains.”...
There was a 'wise guy' comment made on one of the blogs stating, "The ACA hasn't created anymore professions except the people working with the public to assist in the choice of health care plans." All of that is DOUBLE talk.
Immediately upon implementation of course there weren't any new PROFESSIONS and there isn't going to be new PROFESSIONS. What occurred after the ACE was implemented was a job creation of people teaching the public about the choices in health care under the ACA.
But, the PROFESSIONS in health care won't increase, the numbers within EVERY health care profession will increase. Adding new members to health care plans will drive a demand for health care and it is that demand that will increase jobs of every health care profession.
This is not rocket science. The ACA is self-sustaining. The new law really isn't that new. Massachusetts had a start up health care for all program long before the federal program was begun. Not only that, but, the law when first voted on AFTER the Recovery Act, was already written. It had been researched and written long before THE DEBATE ever ensued.
The reason this dialogue exists is because of morons that no nothing about the process this law endured before it was introduced to the US House in 2009 and those that are scared of having a President in chronic VETO mode when the US House and Senate vote 55, 56, 57 and 58 times to repeal the ACA over the next two years. The next two years with the Republican majorities will be a joke. The entire country knows that. The next session of Congress will be nothing but rhetorical leading up to the 2016 elections.
I thought McConnell might have enough respect for the country to seek a good relationship with President Obama, but, with the Democrats suffering from PTSD and squealing like little pigs on their way to castration the Republicans will take advantage of their numbers in government for the 2016 federal elections. The Republicans like squealing piglets, don't the Democrats know that?
In Iowa, it is their favorite pastime.
