I wouldn't count on employers hiring many more people with the uncertainty of the ACA. The CBO has estimated about 2.5 million job loss and will probably leave an estimated 31 million uninsured. A new 29-30 hr work week.This, being tauted as the new, desirable normal. Single mothers will *finally* be able to quit a job without fear of losing their healthcare for their children, more people being *freed* of those undesirable jobs and able to stay home and cook meals at home and raise their children. Ah yes, they'll have government subsidized healthcare but no jobs, More welfare state, more debt, more borrowing, more *quantitative easing*, more government dependency, more regulation, less freedom. I didn't like the TM movement because somebody was always telling me what I *should or shouldn't do*. Now the federal government is becoming the same way, LOL! BTW I don't see the economy getting any better otherwise why would a political party that created this mess be screaming about *income inequality*?

If the interest rates remain low, there's a good chance that the employers will borrow more money to increase their sales. As such, they also will hire more people to provide services to their customers. If the economy gets better, the Fed should reduce its purchases of government bonds to prevent the rise of inflation. So far, the balancing act appears to be working.
