ORIGINAL: Phydeaux http://video.foxnews.com/v/2698265826001/cavuto-mr-president-we-at-fox-news-are-not-the-problem/?intcmp=obnetwork Did FOX News fully, completely, and without question, without inserting any political viewpoint or agenda.....EXPLAIN....the Affordable Care Act to its viewers over the last three years? From cover to cover? No? If you have been watching FOX News and listening to conservative talk radio hosts about this bill, you would have a large amount of useless information. Has FOX News explained the exchanges to its viewers? Explain how they work, how the laws effects citizens and advice on how to navigate the law? Have they tried to show what to watch out for in scammers that will take advantage of unsuspecting citizens trying to follow in good faith with the law? How does one determine if they could get a decent plan at a reduce cost? The ACA is not forcing employers to withhold hiring or limit hours of existing employees; that's employers using the ACA as an excuse not to be a good citizen. Further, its employers that have not gotten good information to make informed business decisions. Employers would do well not incur the wrath of their employees; as these are the people that make the company money. Happy and healthy employees generally make a company MORE money. A good business person is one that takes responsibility for those that work for them. But then, good business person doesn't get their information from FOX News.... Has FOX News explained....WHY....the Republicans/Tea Party want the ACA defunded? The law works whether its funded or not. You know, that's something FOX News fails to mention quite frequently. They want you to believe that if its defunded, the ACA goes away. No, the defunding part simply hurts YOU the citizen in the long run. If your required by the law to pick up a plan in your local exchange area, the funding of the bill LOWERS your monthly bill depending on a number of factors. So if the Republicans defeat the ACA, you'll get to pay MORE. Does FOX News mention that? That would have a direct impact on your monthly budget, wouldn't it? You want to pay more for health care? Support your local Republican/Tea Party member in Congress. Has FOX News pointed that out as well, when talking about the ACA? No? Why not? Defunding Obamacare is the first step in getting it repealed. Do you have citations showing that the employers citing Obamacare as the reason for their hiring/firing decisions are only scapegoating Obamacare?
