He is responsible for the amount Medicare pays to doctors dropping by 21%. Let me tell you, it has been hard enough to find a doctor willing to take Medicare/Medicaid insurance. A drop of 21% in payments will make it impossible.

He is ending loans to small business. With the economy in the state it is in, small businesses need to be encouraged. With the loan programs now expired, it will be more difficult for small businesses to find money.
Still gotta pay for it somehow... MAybe we should force banks to loan them some? Hell we own a couple now don't we?
