[quote=joec]As expected, some people are leaving jobs that they never even wanted with ACA moving forward. Also, stated, some people who don’t have any job may take some of these “decent/crappy” jobs with healthcare from people who didn’t want them to begin with or wanted to retire, etc… A more proper alignment and better use of work resources overall to have people working who actually wants to be there.

The CBO has explained that those with low incomes would have more financial resources due to the expansion of Medicaid and subsidies to purchase health insurance, which would “encourage some people to work fewer hours or to withdraw from the labor market.”

Plus, the CBO said, some workers nearing retirement will retire earlier than normal because the law provides more protections for health insurance, such as limiting how much more companies can charge older people and requiring the coverage of preexisting conditions.

Ok, for #2, I see as a retiree why this would be good. They worked, and retired…Ok I get that..
However, regarding #1, how is #1 a good thing by having people choosing not to work and depending more on social benefits???? Seriously?
And with #1 and #2, who is going to pay more for this?? Younger people???
