Yesterday's action of repealing the health care reform, cynically called the Job-Killing Health Care Act by my friends on the other side of the aisle, is definitely an ironic misnomer--job killing--when the health reform is poised to create 4 million new jobs. The number of jobs created by repeal? Zero. So we're not about protecting jobs on the other side of the aisle. We are about protecting insurance companies' bottom line.
The speaker addresses the repeal of health care reform and its impact on job creation.
