Here’s Larry Kud­low on what Obama-​​Care might mean in real, every­day terms:

By the way, a gov­ern­ment takeover of health care — which is essen­tially what Oba­macare rep­re­sents — will crip­ple one of our most pro­duc­tive job-​​creating sec­tors. Pri­vate health care pro­duced almost 700,000 new jobs in the last two ter­ri­ble years, all while over­all pay­rolls fell by 7.5 mil­lion. Think about that.

So while the gen­eral econ­omy was los­ing 7 12 mil­lion jobs, Pri­vate health care pro­duced nearly 34 million.

Voilà! We can’t have all those jobs, and a lot of them really well-​​paying, out­side our con­trol! Just how are we sup­posed to make sure income is prop­erly dis­trib­uted and every­thing mea­sures up to our idea of fair?

If you can’t con­trol peo­ple prop­erly why, any­thing can hap­pen. You might even get a police­man who, when try­ing to ques­tion a res­i­den­tial break-​​in sus­pect, expects that his ques­tions be answered clearly and promptly with­out the sus­pect yelling and call­ing him names! Now, what kind of a world would that be?

I know. Pretty grue­some to con­tem­plate such a world. It was tough on Kud­low, too. But just think about how many jobs there will be to save or cre­ate when these Health Care jobs go bye-​​bye under Obama-​​Care.
