It’s the American work ethic that makes this country so great and prosperous, take that away and what do you get? France and its anemic .10% GDP growth.

Minnesota Democratic Rep. Keith Ellison defended Obamacare against the Congressional Budget Office’s finding that the law would push nearly two million workers out of the labor market by 2017 as employees decide either to work fewer hours or drop out of the job market.
Ellison told ABC’s “This Week” panel Sunday morning that it will lead to “working more reasonable hours.”
“Americans work way more than the average of industrialized countries around the world,” he said. ”What the Congressional Budget Office is saying, we’re going to discourage kids from being [in] latchkey. Have parents come home working reasonable hours. People can retire. People may be able to cook dinner rather than get takeout. The fact is is that if Americans can have more choices to open up a new business they have been wanting to start, this is a good thing.
