Obamacare Creates Thousands of New Jobs

Congressman Lee Terry (Republican, Nebraska 2nd District) emailed me a list of all of the 159 new ways that Section 10221, page 2173 of House Resolution 3590 which deemed that Senate Bill 1790 was passed with certain amendments creates jobs. I'm only putting up the first 10 amazing new ways it creates jobs- the full list is here or here or here:

1. Grant program for consumer assistance offices (Section 1002, p. 37)
2. Grant program for states to monitor premium increases (Section 1003, p. 42)
3. Committee to review administrative simplification standards (Section 1104, p. 71)
4. Demonstration program for state wellness programs (Section 1201, p. 93)
5. Grant program to establish state Exchanges (Section 1311(a), p. 130)
6. State American Health Benefit Exchanges (Section 1311(b), p. 131)
7. Exchange grants to establish consumer navigator programs (Section 1311(i), p. 150)
8. Grant program for state cooperatives (Section 1322, p. 169)
9. Advisory board for state cooperatives (Section 1322(b)(3), p. 173)
10. Private purchasing council for state cooperatives (Section 1322(d), p. 177)

My personal favorites are these new boards, agencies, and commissions that Obamacare creates. I'm not saying that what these do are not important or worthy, but I would question whether or not they are more worthy of tax dollars than national defense, fiscal responsibility (debt that my children and grandchildren are going to have to pay interest on even though they don't receive these services now), or any of the proper and limited and constitutional responsibilities of our national government:
