Make hospitals put their prices up front.

In case you haven’t noticed.

Yet again.

In large part because we cripple their economy.

Because employers are adding jobs, but reducing hours – equivalent to 500,000 jobs lost.

And the costs just keep on climbing.

Ineffective, and bureaucratic.

Businesses that can afford to are leaving Argentina.

They receive hate mail from liberals, and get slandered in the media.

But only by ditching the unions. Which is about what I thought would happen.

By vowing to go green.

Hey, the first order approximation of what’s actually environmentally friendly is what makes the most economic sense.

The economy sucks so bad, the government has decided to change how it measures growth, in a way that will make everything seem 3% bigger.

Maybe. Let’s see if they’re any better at extrapolating themselves from it than any other country.

NZ Deficit down 0.6 Billion than December projections, because they’ve kept spending flat.

Fedex, Home Depot, Subway…and it’s because of the regulation and tax environment.

The productivity gains she’s touting weren’t among the unskilled workers making minimum wage. So no, they shouldn’t be earning $22 an hour.

No surprise: remove the graft and messed up government accounting. But the goal of the sequester to Democrats is to make the cuts as painful as possible to the public to preserve the bureaucracy and graft.

It isn’t a good one.

The eerie similarities between 1936 and today.

No surprise. Is there anything it can’t do?
