the President has repeatedly stated that he would not raise taxes for individuals earning less than $200,000 and married couples earning less than $250,000.
This highlights a concern I have. The President and congressional Democrats clearly went out of their way during the legislative debate to hide the fact that this is a tax.
The law's new mandates and regulations are standing in the way of job creation at a time when unemployment remains high and our economy desperately needs more jobs.
We ultimately need to bring competition and market forces into the Medicare program in order to reduce costs.
