$20 Billion! Small Businesses: You Didn't Use It, So Now You Lose It!

Small Businesses you're losing again under Lipinski Approved ObamaCare!  It started in 2013 and has been estimated to carry forward until 2021.  What are we talking about?  Answer.  Any assistance in setting up insurance for you and your employees have been reduced by $20-Billion!

Official Text from the Congressional Budget Office:

"The combined effects of those changes over the 2012–2021 period are these: "...A decrease of $20 billion in the cost of tax credits for small employers." (Source: C.B.O. Report 'Updated Estimates for the Insurance Coverage Provisions of the Affordable Care Act,' March 2012, Page 6)."

"In the current estimates, CBO and JCT reduced the projected cost of small business tax credits to reflect preliminary tax data showing that small businesses have been slower to take advantage of the credits than originally estimated (C.B.O. Report, Page 8)."

Small businesses you have to understand that this Lipinski supported Obama Administration moves fast.  The Galen Institute, a non-profit health and tax policy research organization, reported that as of May 2014, 41 (that's forty-one) significant changes to ObamaCare have taken place (23 of them unilaterally – i.e. that is changes without Congressional action or approval).  The Lipinski supported Obama Administration has, and will continue to use, unconstitutional “executive power” to unilaterally change ObamaCare, and thereby affect how your business adapts to it, at any moment or time.  This is definitely unhealthy for your business or the economy!

The writing is on the wall for the unintended consequences of Obamacare.  Small businesses like mine will become a thing of the past.  Oh, it won't happen entirely overnight, but it will be with great rapidity.  Only you can stop the unintended consequences and elect people willing to stand up and dismantle the largest destruction of the foundation of our country, otherwise known as obamacare.

Remember the business exchange for employers is scheduled to open in November 2014.  Unfortunately, you may need a full-time employee, or an attorney, to keep tabs on the ever-increasing changes that Lipinski has allowed the President to perform on this monsterous program.  Small Business Owners, you wouldn't have to be dealing with these issues, but not for Dan Lipinski voting to keep ObamaCare over 10 TIMES.  Isn't it time to get back to focusing on your business?  If you choose to elect a pro-business and pro-jobs candidate, like Sharon Brannigan, you can do just that!
