Today's thought:
The left like to highlight the fact that Romney was for the healthcare mandate (Mass) before he was against it (USA). The left also like to tell us about how Mass was 47th in job creation during Romney's term as governor.
But how about looking at these two facts together:
Romney did indeed successfully implement healthcare in Mass, but it was followed by very lackluster job growth numbers. Obama also successfully implemented healthcare at the national level and he too produced dismal, Romney like, employment numbers but on a nationwide scale. Coincidence? Maybe. But lets also consider the fact that Bill Clinton tried to implement healthcare early in his term but failed miserably. What happened to the economy after Clinton's failed attempt; IT BOOMED.
There is a lesson to be learned here. When you shift gigantic sums of money from the private sector to the government, the private sector suffers. It seems so obvious that even a child could understand and yet the political left, well.......
