Looks like partisan raging. It's not like the administration or congress only did one thing. The House passed over 400 bills (most didn't make it to the Senate)

Looks like partisan raging. It's not like the administration or congress only did one thing. The House passed over 400 bills (most didn't make it to the Senate), and the Senate still got quite a few things done.
- tptacek 16y ago"But the President tried his best" is not a valid answer to "health care may be a bigger issue than access to capital".
- mkr-hn 16y agoThe thing in the first set of quotes is not something I said.
- tptacek 16y agoNope, not directly.
- mkr-hn 16y agoThen be direct and say what you mean since I don't know what you're trying to say.
- tptacek 16y agoIs health care not a problem for startups? If it in fact is, then answer this question: what does it matter how many other things the administration got done? How does that make it less of a problem?
- mkr-hn 16y agoI guess it depends on what you thought of the health care reform bill. In my mind it's already taken care of, and things will improve as the provisions take effect. I would prefer it all come in to effect immediately, but I understand there are business and regulatory systems that need to be developed in advance of implementation.
- tptacek 16y agoYou didn't answer my question. Would you, please?
- mkr-hn 16y agoWe must be talking about different things. I'm not involved or interested in that line of discussion. The only important part of the post that sparked this was "Looks like partisan raging."
