Applying the Market Test to Political Arguments to see if they are true or pre-text.
Argument #1: Obamneycare is going to ration doctor pay and significantly bring it down. Is this true?
Look at the current pay for doctors in Massachusetts. Has it declined a lot in relation to the median salary since 2004? Is doctor pay in a downward trend? Is doctor pay lower relatively to doctor pay in other states? The answer to all of these questions is no. Myth Debunked!
Argument #2: Obamneycare is going to ruin the health care industry and make it worse on everybody so that they'll be a complete government take over of health care. Is this true?
How are the stocks doing for health insurance companies like Aetna and hospital stocks like Health Management Associations going? Well, they are not collapsing. In fact, no articles are usually written about their performance post-Obamacare including those on right-wing blogs. Myth Debunked!
Disclaimer: Now, I don't know much about Obamneycare, it could ruin the world?...unlikely. As a normal person, I haven't read the law and am not planning on doing so.
