I'm curious if you could name the actual policy that exists or legislation passed that is the problem?
FYI< I'm a political junky and quite aware of the actual laws and regulations that really exist, NOT made up rhetoric.
Pleas be specific and show cause and effect via facts, thanks
sure thing, you should stop by the politics board bro...were always looking for new blood in there and you seem like you are pretty level headed so you would probably bring some good points of view.
the health care bill, finreg, toying with letting the bush tax cuts expire etc...
Ill just go into the health care bill for now since thats the most relevant piece of legislation but I can go into the others as well later.
The massive bill that we had to "pass before we will know whats in it" has done nothing but stagnate the economy. This bill has single handedly injected more instability into the future operating costs businesses than anything in recent history. Companies do not have a good handle on their future expected costs for their employees. They do know however that their costs will rise, do you know that even part time workers will be effected by this bill?
this bill requires that you add up your part time hours for all part time workers and divide by 40 to get the equivilant number of full time workers and you have to pay the penalty for that number...is that not bull shit?
This bill is also going to increase the premiums of insurance. An insurance company works by spreading the risk of their pool over many ppl. This bill allows you to not carry insurance, pay a fee(which is small in comparison to insurance premiums) and when you get sick go buy insurance and force the company to pay for your medical bills...
what do you think the insurance company is going to do to help compensate for the new added risk? they are going to raise their rates on the existing customer base....
businesses work by planning, to do so you need to know your expected revenue and your expected expenses...if you dont know how much its going to cost you to take on a certain project b/c you dont know what your cost for personel will be youre going to be much less inclined to take that project on.
I went to a seminar a while back on the health care bill given by an insurance company here in houston. I think i still have the hand outs, I can send them to you if I do.
