HOW DEMOCRATS SEE THE ELECTION CYCLE
America now has a government that views work as a "trap" and celebrates those who "escape" it.
That is the upshot of last week’s remarkable exchange over ObamaCare.
It began when the head of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office reported that the interplay of taxes and subsidies in the law “creates a disincentive for people to work.”
The report predicted the mix would lead to fewer hours worked, costing the equivalent of nearly 2.5 million jobs.
In response, Obama’s spokesman pleaded guilty — with pride and pleasure.
“Opportunity created by affordable, quality health insurance allows families in America to make a decision about how they will work, or if they will work,” Jay Carney said.
Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi applauded the law for freeing people from “job-lock.”
