DIRECT RESULT OF OBAMACARE SOCIALIZED MEDICINE: Stryker to cut 5% of workforce

Healthcare rationing, sub-quality care, and shortages. I told you so. It happens every single time, no exceptions, and how some of you are actually insane enough to believe “it’ll be different this time” defies intelligence.

Stryker, the Kalamazoo-based maker of artificial hips and knees, will cut 5% of its global workforce by the end of next year to reduce costs in the face of new fees on device makers required by the U.S. health care law.

The job cuts will reduce annual pretax operating costs by more than $100 million beginning in 2013, when the medical-device excise tax is scheduled to take effect, Stryker said Thursday in a statement. Stryker had more than 20,000 employees as of Dec. 31, according to Bloomberg News data.

So not only is ObamaCare, Socialized Medicine, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) or whatever you want to call that socialist bullshit making health services third world, it’s also costing jobs. Remember, this is a Democrat only law. They did it, not one Republican voted in favor of it.

And once again, what entity is creating this mess? That’s right, your precious big government. Sticking its nose where it does not belong. It happens every single time, why some of you don’t get that, well, it defies intelligence.

Democrat Rep. Shelley Berkley Comes Clean On ObamaCare Socialized Medicine

I know it’s terrible. My husband’s a doctor. He hates it too. But if I don’t vote for it, she [former Speaker, now Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi] will punish me

via The Gateway Pundit:

“I supported a democratic Congresswoman named Shelley Berkley. I called her during Obamacare. I said Shelley what are you doing, how do you do this? This is killing the unions and all of those that are supplying health care to our employees. And she said to me quote, and this is not hearsay. Shelley said to me, and she’s running for the senate, “Steve I know it’s terrible. My husband’s a doctor. He hates it too. But if I don’t vote for it, she will punish me.” She being Nancy Pelosi. I said, “Shelley every politician who has sold out their constituency has had a lame, terrible rationalization like the one you just gave me. Don’t ever call me again.” …That’s politics in America today. And, if any businessman or any working person doesn’t understand that this is a turning point in American history, Then I’m afraid that we’re going to get what we deserve.”
