I guess Republicans & cons just can't help themselves from lying their asses off about everything the do. Why is that? They always get caught up in their lies, so why do they do it? Makes no good sense.
WASHINGTON — Despite what Republicans say, the health-care law isn't necessarily a job killer, experts say.
Republicans have titled their effort to overturn the law the "Repealing the Job-Killing Health Care Law Act," and that's their favorite talking point against it. The House will start debate on repeal Tuesday and probably vote Wednesday.
Saying the law is a job killer doesn't necessarily make it one, however, and independent experts say such a conclusion is at least premature, if not unfounded.
"The claim has no justification," said Micah Weinberg, a senior research fellow at the centrist New America Foundation's Health Policy Program.
Because the law contains dual mandates that most individuals must obtain health insurance and most employers must offer it by 2014, "the effect on employment is probably zero or close to it," said Amitabh Chandra, a professor of public policy at Harvard University.
