in looking at the cookbook, it s beautiful because you ve got a lot of traditional italian recipes, just your family version of it. everything looks delicious. it s beautiful. and it tells the story which is really important to us because food has a story. like we could be warring on a sunday, nobody getting along. you put that food in front of us and nothing matters. everything goes out the window. for at least three hours. the only time it s quiet is while we re eating. and when you re around the family table, it s important because you are a family. but then again, you are a family. we are a family. so you re all mob wives. you re all related to somebody we re all related to somebody who is somebody, who is somebody. now you re related to the somebody. special ingredient. what do you do that s different here? a little more garlic? a lot more cheese and butter. butter. is this gluten free?
yeah. free agents. but a lot of people don t feel they re trapped in a job. they re proud of the fact they have a job that gives their family benefits. they don t feel trapped in a job. that s part of the pluses and minuses. you got to work. there is a philosophy here that s being woven into the conversation and earlier you were speaking to a fellow manhattan institute and he said, this is really what s happening. obamacare and the subsidies are discouraging people from staying in the work force. that s a problem with most of these welfare programs generally. the social security, disability payments, the same thing. the more you pay people not to work, the more you discourage people from seeking a job cause they make more money sitting on welfare payments and as a result, you have the smaller and smaller taxpayer base that s paying for all these benefits. so the bad news is obamacare could lead to the loss of over 2 million jobs. you ll hear more about it later today on the chan
listen, we know are watching tv this morning and we hope. because a lot of people aren t going to work, aren t going to school. we got a little bad news for you. remember we heard from the president and democrats that obamacare was going to save us machine with health care. we could keep our doctors if we wanted them and you would have more choices? that turned onto to be no, no and no. now the congressional budget office, which is nonpartisan, has projected that the affordable care act, which is not so affordable, will reduce the total number of hours americans work by the equivalent 26.3 million full-time jobs by the year 2021. they had thought maybe 800,000 jobs. but as it turns out, over 2 million jobs. so the theory is this could be good news, because a lot of people want to get benefits and that s why they stay with their job and may pick up another job. now that you can get affordable health care, theoretically.
either a new entrepreneurial opportunity or a new job that in which they could be more productive and they re choose to go spend more time with their family. you can get food stamps and then get your full fund financial aid for college. the crazy thing is, they had projected that close to a million people would they baked that into the recipe. now more than double that. brit hume, who has seen a lot of crazy things in his days in washington, d.c., says this is just flat out bad. here we have an economy struggling to really find its footing and get going on the robust recovery we ve all long been hoping for and here comes a program espoused by the president that at least at the lower income levels, it says will discourage work. that is not good news for the economy and i don t think it will be seen as good news by anybody. i really care for you so i m
it will be really, really hard. it takes people who really study these programs intensively to understand where the leverage points are to turn them around and turn the battleships around. it can be done. it will take a lot of courage from congress to take on these growing entitlements and resistant urge to spend the money. because it s so easy to characterize the other guy as not caring about the poor if you decide to curtail these programs and do something like the welfare reform like we saw in the clinton years. in your previous sect, you talked about this new cbo report, which is indicating that obamacare and the subsidies are discouraging people from staying in the work force. that s the problem with most of these entitlement programs in the first place. the more you pay people not to work, the more you discourage people from seeking a job cause they make more money sitting on a welfare payment. as a result, you have smaller and smaller taxpayer base that s paying for all t
