If so, why were businesses closing well before anyone knew what an Obama was?
Never said I was sure, it was just a suggestion, but once again the liberals have to jump to the defense of this failed president, so now we get a third term of Jimmy Carter...

"with full implementation of Obamacare just around the corner lots of places are opting to close down rather than pay for healthcare." is not a suggestion, it is a declarative sentence blatantly implying that Sweetwater is opting to close down rather than pay for healthcare. If it truly was just a suggestion you would use "It may be..." or "It is possible..." or something similar but you didn't because that wasn't your intention.

Still waiting on a cogent response to the question, if Obamacare is the cause of all these businesses closing down what was causing so many businesses to close down in the decades and decades before anyone heard of an Obama? So far I'm getting you're a "liberal" as if I care, nevermind I voted for Gary Johnson this past election.

You need to go back to your government school and learn how to read, that is entirely a suggestion.....

Doesn't say that Sweetwater in particular is closing it is just a suggestion as to why they may be closing....

I voted for Gary as well, but that doesn't change the fact that Obamacare is a job killer and Gary wanted to kill it quicker than Romney did....

You made a declarative statement, you don't have to explicitly state Sweetwater because it clear as day your intentions.

Still not answering the question: if Obamacare is the cause of all these businesses closing down what was causing so many businesses to close down in the decades and decades before anyone heard of an Obama?

Just like you found stories of owners claiming Obamacare caused them to close, I can find small business owners fine with Obamacare. In fact one study found that the majority of small business owners support Obamacare. Small Business Majority | Small Business Owners

Several studies have already debunked the assumption that the health care reform law will negatively impact the economy by discouraging small business owners from hiring. In fact, there is no evidence to suggest that Obamacare will require small businesses to provide expensive health care plans that they can’t afford. In fact, so far over a quarter-million small businesses have claimed Obamacare tax deductions for providing health insurance to their employees, so it makes me wonder what other variables are causing those 3 businesses to close.
