The release of the House GOP budget by Rep. Paul Ryan has sparked a
resurgence of false and misleading claims about the Affordable Care Act,
which the budget seeks to largely repeal. On the Sunday talk shows,
Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the head of the Democratic National
Committee, and Sen. Ron Johnson, a Republican from Wisconsin, each
distorted the facts regarding revenues raised in the health care law.
And Ryan wrongly said the law would take money away from Medicare and
ration benefits for seniors.
Johnson said there’s “$1 trillion in middle-income tax increases …
in Obamacare.” But the new revenue generated by the Affordable Care Act
falls mostly on high-income taxpayers, employers who fail to provide
health care to their employees, and health care companies, such as drug
manufacturers, medical device manufacturers and insurance providers.
Wasserman Schultz said “there are not $1 trillion in taxes in
Obamacare,” calling Johnson’s claim “completely untrue.” That’s wrong.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office says repealing the law will
“reduce revenues by $1 trillion between 2013 and 2022,” meaning it will
cost taxpayers that much if the law remains on the books.
Ryan said the law’s reductions in the growth of Medicare spending
amounted to “money that was taken from Medicare.” But the Treasury has
to give Medicare the money credited to its trust fund — the money can’t
be taken away.
Ryan also repeated a popular talking point when he said that a
15-member “rationing” board would “determine what kind of benefits
people get.” But the board, tasked with recommending ways to slow the
growth of Medicare spending, can’t restrict benefits, according to the
Affordable Care Act.

". . . Robert Murray, the chief executive of Ohio-based coal provider Murray Energy Corporation's "PRAYER" . . .
“The American people have made their choice. They have decided that America must change its course, away from the principals of our Founders. And, away from the idea of individual freedom and individual responsibility. Away from capitalism, economic responsibility, and personal acceptance.”
He concluded by asking God for forgiveness for the layoff decisions.
“Lord, please forgive me and anyone with me in Murray Energy Corporation for the decisions that we are now forced to make to preserve the very existence of any of the enterprises that you have helped us build. We ask for your guidance in this drastic time with the drastic decisions that will be made to have any hope of our survival as an American business enterprise.”
Several companies made headlines before the presidential election Tuesday for insinuating that they would fire workers if Romney was not elected. . . "
. . . and delivery us from our conscience, social responsibility, and any other worthwhile humanity-related attribute for thine is the boardroom, forever and ever HEYYYY MANNN!!!!!!
