of ACA goes through? Has this been projected?
Remember the dripping piece of shit is a job creator.

(32,009 posts)I looked at the link and they give no methodology for their numbers. All they say is the source is the "author". Also it is not a "loss" of jobs it is a projected slowing of job growth -- which is a very murky number at best. I would much rather see an analysis from a neutral organization instead of an organization which is opposed to the bill.

(17,863 posts)Was 400,000 nurses equivalent per year. This money exists no other place. Nursing schools (including my daughter's) have been ramping up graduation rates. Someone needs to turn off the spigot. Also those comments about not majoring in History but major in Nursing instead - well that plan did not work either.
The only argument that could be made is that there is an unreasonable amount of healthcare consumption. That seems to be ridiculous on its race. Go to any nursing home or hospital floor and see the inadequate staffing.

I'd say the industry will take a a large hit if this isn't stopped.
