So now that this is actually going to be happening, suddenly the Right thinks that this is bad idea, eh?

...it isn't happening, and it isn't going to happen. That's the bad idea.

That is a totally false and perverted interoperation of what the CBO report actually said.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/05/media-cbo-obamacare-report_n_4730216.html

BTW, some twenty years ago, the Heritage Foundation, a highly respected Conservative think-tank, authored a study which argued for mandatory health insurance for American NOT tied to there place of employment and one of the reasons given for why this was important it that it would allow people move from job to job easier so that they're skills and preferences could be better utilized as well as for people leaving the workforce altogether since they would no longer feel that they had to have jobs they didn't like jus because it was only way that they could get health care. That this would promote more people starting their own companies or working part time thus allowing more women to return to taking care of their families.

So now that this is actually going to be happening, suddenly the Right thinks that this is bad idea, eh? Just another example of when it was someone on the Right who was for something it was perfectly all right, but as soon as Obama or some other 'liberal' started to support it, suddenly it's the worst thing that could possibly happen to America. Well you can't have it both ways. If it was a good idea when it was a Conservative goal, how is it now a bad idea just because it's finally coming about during the tenure of a Democratic president?
