...and was depressed all over again about the ObamaCare ruling.
This is definitely one of those issues upon which one can find any opinion one wants...and which defies rational analysis because of its complexity.
As far as I can tell, ObamaCare's impact on me personally, short term, will be tax increases – more money stolen from my pocket by the government and given to others in its inimitably inefficient manner. Longer term, I am very worried about the stifling effects of ObamaCare on medical research, innovation, and practitioner compensation. We currently lead the world on all these fronts, to the point where we dominate. What happens when we make it unprofitable (or much less profitable) for the businesses and individuals who currently turn the gears of this wonderful machine? They'll go elsewhere: either to other countries smart enough to take advantage of the bonanza we've handed them, or to other industries. Either way, innovation most likely gets reduced – or at least our access to it.
Sheesh.
We gotta repeal this pig!
