Boehner says: As Americans across the country ask where are the jobs?, the last thing middle-class families and small businesses need from Washington is more taxes and more regulation. But thats exactly what they will get under the massive government takeover of health care President Obama recently signed into law. This week I received a note from Ken Cohen, President of Cohen Brothers, a small business in Middletown. Ken is concerned about reporting requirements in the new law that will place an enormous tax-filing burden on all small businesses to report payments of more than $600 for everything from raw materials to office supplies to the IRS. This new requirement represents an additional paperwork burden for small businesses already struggling to keep up with a never ending stream of government regulation. And this is only going to make it harder for small businesses to create jobs at a time when Washington ought to be making job creation easier for them. Republicans stood with the American people in opposition to a government takeover of our health care system. Now were fighting to repeal this job-killing bill and replace it with common-sense solutions to lower health care costs for middle-class families and help small businesses create jobs.

Both Democrat and Republican elected officials have been wrecking our great nation for the past 40 years. They are both leading this country off of a cliff; except for themselves and their wealthy friends.

@MoridanX i would certainly like to see people with HC. but i do not if the cost is more gov.’t intrusion and it is accomplished through means such as this unamerican bill. THAT cost is too high. people have forgotten what they have a right to, and universal HC is not one of them. in america, you work if you want to succeed, you work really hard and you can go places. if you want something besides life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, then you have to work for it.

@MoridanX freedom to live? i am not taking away their freedom to live. your response makes no sense. everyone has the freedom to live. but to sign into law legislature that says you must buy health care or pay a fine is wrong. to tell companies that they must provide health care is wrong. health care is something you should be able to choose to buy or not to buy. i have nothing against HC or people that need it, but this bill isnt the way to do it

I can’t wait to boot out the Democrats in these next elections, I don’t see how they even got voted in, they don’t even care about what the American people have to say.

@MrRustyt2011 You mean your freedom to keep an extra 500 dollars.

Right now, Medicaid & Medicare can’t cover all of the healthcare needs of those individuals who have coverage. The government cannot tax us enough to cover the needs of everyone, and the rationing will begin. Where will they “draw the line” at the expense of some lives over others? Don’t think it will happen? It already does, and it hasn’t even begun yet.

@MoridanX health care is important, but we cannot give it to everyone at the price of our freedom

i lost my boner after watching this video. health-care for everyone is important because the price of one life cannot be measured in money.

The tax system is pretty bad when Congressmen and even the Secretary of the Treasury and former head of the NY Fed can’t even do their taxes correctly.
