Experts doubt claim that health care's a 'job killer'

McClatchy has the story:

Despite what Republicans say, the 2010 health care law isn't necessarily a job killer.

..."The claim has no justification," said Micah Weinberg, a senior research fellow at the centrist New America Foundation's Health Policy Program.

Since the law contains dual mandates that most individuals must obtain health insurance coverage and most employers must offer it by 2014, "the effect on employment is probably zero or close to it," said Amitabh Chandra, a professor of public policy at Harvard University.
