Will Obama's health care bill jump start the economy?

It seems his health care bill got Brown elected, which will hopefully stop his healthcare bill. Which caused a little sense of balance of power in congress which will give the free market a chance, which will give jobs a chance. So, by forcing health care, and hopefully failing, His Health Care reform attempt that alienated even the bluest state, might have saved our economy, by creating a balnce of power.

Update:

Drinker, while I agree with your statement. You didnt read everything I wrote. My point is, health care reform creation, caused Mass to elect a Rep as Senator, which probably saved us from a big mistake.

    It might do. There are two bills ready to pass. With the election, only one has a chance of passing now.

    I do not understand why so many Americans have fallen for lies about healthcare in the USA, abroad and also the planned reforms [1]. I mean, if the healthcare system in the USA is so good, why have no other nations taken it up? Could it be due to the following facts?

    FACT - the USA spends more on healthcare PER PERSON than any other nation on the planet [2].

    FACT - the US has higher death rates for kids under five than western European countries with universal health coverage [3].

    Or if the US healthcare system is run so well, why not run the fire service like the healthcare system? [4]

    Maybe that is because in the USA, insurance companies push up costs, buy politicians and refuse to pay claims that people pay for [5]. (Look up Wendell Potter on YouTube to hear more if the link below is too long.)

    Obama wants to make insurance cheaper, stop insurance companies from refusing health coverage to those with pre-existing conditions, and make sure they pay out when they are meant to [6], a system similar to that which works in Taiwan [7]. He debated this before he was elected [8].

    Is it right that a dead American four year old would have had a better chance of life if they were born in Canada, Cuba, Germany and so many other industrialised nations with universal healthcare?

    If you think my arguments are wrong, e-mail me with proof. But if you can not, let Obama try to help America. If he fails, vote him out in 2012.

    It would not Obama is a gloomy failure annoyed Ohioans are beginning off to blame President Barack Obama for the state's economic problems, in accordance to a statewide ballot launched immediately. Obama's approval score is in a loose-fall in Ohio, seen by utilising many political observers to be the main needed swing state in a presidential election. a clean survey by utilising the Quinnipiac college Polling Institute exhibits that purely 40 9 p.c. of the state's electorate approve of how Obama is dealing along with his interest, 13 factors decrease than the sixty two p.c. who gave Obama a thumbs up in a could 6 Quinnipiac ballot of Ohioans.

    The Brown win could derail the Obama Care bill...

    Note the following from CNBC: Brown's upset with 52 percent of the vote in heavily Democratic Massachusetts raised the specter of large losses for Democrats across the country in November and left Democrats scrambling to find answers.

    This could also derail Cap & Trade which like the Obama Care crapola would hurt business and employment...

    this is not about health care. Don't be decieved into thinking this is about THAT !

    AMERICA spoke last night. IT wasn't democrats and it wasn't independents and it wasn't republicans..but AMERICANS who finally had enough with bribes, deceit, arrogance, not being heard, having choices taken from them...but more importantly....it was about the PROGRESSIVES that took over our government!

    This is not about the differences of democrats and republicans...this is about THE FAR LEFT PROGRESSIVES that are so full of hubris they thought AMERICA would not fight back. THEY ARE WRONG!

    If you listened to the voters last night after electios night...you could have heard what this was about...it was important. 3/4ths of them voted for OBAMA...and yet they voted for Brown. It was POLITICS and PROGRESSIVES...not the democrats they voted against. Did anyone listen to them?

    It had NOTHING to do with health care...it was the POLICIES of this administration ...it was being TOLD what was good for them...and not having a choice themselves. It was about POWER and CONTROL of the GOVERNMENT and not the PEOPLE..and the people just stood up and said....WE ARE THE ONES IN POWER...NOT YOU!

    Make no mistake....this is about the PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT in this country....not party warfare!

    It wasn't the citizens of Mass...but the AMERICAN PEOPLE that spoke. The INDEPENDENTS (democrats) of Mass that said last night they voted for BOZO...but do not want secrecy, deceit, bribes, partisanship, and LIES! DOES ANYONE LISTEN to the voters after they vote? They TELL you why they vote as they do. IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHY..not just that it happened.

    3/4ths of the DEMOCRATS that voted for OBAMA said last night.... ..the country is too far left and it isn't ONLY about health care...but the POLITICS that got it where it is.

    THEY ARE SAYING NO TO PROGRESSIVES....not the democratic party. Do you NOT understand what was REALLY AT STAKE HERE? Are you so BLIND to think only TWO PARTIES were at war here?

    MOST of AMERICA wants smaller government, smaller taxes, better jobs and better responsiblity and defense for our country. They are TIRED of being a laughing stock and taken down a road where there is no return. We had a chance to TURN BACK and take a step back and Independents and AMERICANS in Mass had courage and strength to say.....IT STOPS HERE!

    UNDERSTAND...this is not a war between two parties. THIS IS A WAR FOR AMERICA....and as dramatic as it sounds....you can live in denial all you want....but most of AMERICA gets it.

    Want some information to read about what he is really doing? THIS IS FACT AND BACKED UP BY VIDEO OF ACTUALLY HEARINGS.....

    Obama Depopulation Policy Exposed

    Panelists warn of the revival of eugenics under Obama’s modern healthcare through the denial of care to millions who would be judged ‘not fit to live’, just as in Nazi Germany.

    Historian Anton Chaitkin also alleges that Ezekiel Emanuel, brother of Rahm Emanuel, in working with Obama, has also called for the Hippocratic oath to be ‘junked.’

    THIS IS HIS AGENDA...... READ IT...IT IS TRUE !

    this tells you what we have lost...

    http://freedomwatchonfox.com/the-constit%E2%80%A6

    You should watch this by Judge Napolitano! It is how we have allowed power to get our government by the neck and how we have lost rights and freedoms and how our constitution is at risk now.

    We are losing so much even today. The right to be heard, the right to be represented, the right to speak, the right to choose.......and most of that is from THIS ADMINISTRATION! We are losing more in this last year than in a decade!

    Watch this....and understand...where we were...where we are and how we got here. VERY INTERESTING!

    Increasing costs to business will never jump start the economy.
