"Which way is up?" reporting makes a big-time appearance in this Washington Post article
telling us that Obamacare will create a boom in jobs since workers will
have to be hired to steer people through the system. The article
reports:
"About 7,000 to 9,000 new customer service agents will be needed to man phones and Web chats for the marketplace, called an exchange, the federal government will run for more than half of the states, a spokesman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said. Additional agents will be needed for exchanges run by the states themselves."
The next paragraph raises the stakes to:
"Altogether, tens of thousands of people could be hired over the next several years to set up and support the online marketplaces, according to some estimates."
