Don't be surprised that ObamaCare drives unemployment up. CNBC interviewed a restaurateur who fears the combination of workers comp, ObamaCare and sick time could bury her chain of restaurants she's sent the last 25 years building.

Madelyn Alfano has a chain or restaurants in the LA area and is President of the LA Chapter of the California Restaurant Association. She' especially worried about her part time employees who have second job.

"If we were to pay for the 400 employees, because the bill talks about part-timers--but for each two part-timers that makes that makes one full-timer--from what I gather, it would cost over $120,000 a month or $1.4 million a year. We didn't make that. We don't make that much money."

And sadly, unlike Obama, Madelyn can't just print more money. There are three short interviews with her and the bottom one is the saddest.

Whats frightening is professional idiots like Waxman are going to PERSECUTE any CEO that states what the MATH tells them the effects will be.

Its the modern day version of Galleleo being persecuted for saying the earth revolved around the sun.

Ironically, Waxman's bully boy bullshit will amplify the negative effects over time.

Point taken and not to get too far off topic, but Galileo wasn't persecuted for saying the earth revolved around the sun. He was persecuted for being an asshole. He moved from mathematical discussions into philosophical ones and became damn insulting about it.

In fact, he was hardly persecuted at all. He was given "house arrest" in a mansion for a while, and was still allowed to pursue his work.
