So, now Obama's responsible for other people's choices?

.... Ahhh, when the policies are enacted into law and have a deleterious effect, then, ya - I might suggest that the person/group that forced the policy must assume some degree of responsibility

So much for the much-vaunted "personal responsibility."


How many households in the US are collecting welfare and food stamps again?

Amazing how that whole every action has an equal and opposite reaction thingy works
Amazing how many people try to apply physics concepts to socioeconomic problems. They don't apply.

Do you feel the same about the other licensure requirements and other restrictions doctors operate under? Or only the ones passed by the Obama administration?

Far too many.

Economics has it's own set of rules that mirror the sentiment I expressed earlier... Reach back to your Econ 201 and you might recall the phrase "The Marginal Propensity to...." That's one example of the cause/effect relationship as it relates to both supply and demand sides of the equation

At the time they were instituted, sure.... But that's yesterday's news, we are dealing in the here and now and the opportunity that Obamacare delivered certain pressures is a realistic suggestion. Actions in response to that pressure are not unexpected

There are reactions. They are not equal and opposite. They are almost always unequal, and never directly opposite. "Opposite" isn't really a valid term in a system as complex as socioeconomics.

If it were as simple and rigid as physics, there would be no inflation, and no fluctuation in prices except as a direct reflection of supply. Any two of an item would always cost exactly the same.

Have you ever observed that in the real world?

Seriously? You think that licensure of doctors was a bad idea when it was instituted?
