Waivers Shmavers ...


Waivers Shmavers

 


WYSIWYG

The Obamissariat's Friday document dump contained the final list of Obamacare waivers.  There will continue to be waivers granted, but the Direktor will no longer name them.  This in accordance with the Administration's  Most Open Government Ever policy.

"Friday marks the last time HHS will have to update the total number of waivers, putting to rest a recurring political firestorm."

 Here's what else we've learned.
  • Obamacare is so flexible that members of Congress are exempt. Congress has a waiver.
  • All told, 1,231 companies applied for and received waivers from the law’s restrictions on annual benefit caps
  • The 96 denied waivers were to companies that supported the GOP and or said something bad about the Obamacare.
  • When added together, the healthcare waivers excuse about 4 million people, or about 3 percent of the population, from having to participate, HHS said.
  • Labor unions representing 543,812 workers received waivers
  • Private employers with a total of 69,813 employees, many of whom work for small businesses, were granted waivers.”
Waivers Shmavers
  • All waivers expire in 2014. Too late then, schmucks.
In fairness. an Administration supporter explains their  position.

You hate filled republicans who think this is going to get repealed are NUTS!!! Democrats are making huge strides all across the nation in local elections, and more Americans than ever are demanding ECONOMIC JUSTICE, HEALTHCARE JUSTICE, and OVERALL FAIRNESS in our society. Its time for a re-balancing of our nation's wealth, even if the top 1%, rich republican elitists don't think so.

The top tax rate needs to be taken to 60% for those getting anything more than $100k (which is DOUBLE what the average family of 4 in America gets)…with the help of global "occupy" movements, us Democrats will re-take the house in 2012, and push through REAL reform!!!BY TaxtheRich! on 01/06/2012 at 17:12

Two mistakes there, Tim.
First, it's not IF but WHEN.
Second, they're called "idiots" because they are incapable of learning that they are idiots.

Excuse me while I wrap my head in duct tape, as I feel it is about to explode, and I wish to prevent collateral damage.
