The Obama administration has now unwittingly admitted it’s
willing to play politics with the so-called Obama Care insurance plan. All for the
sake of the 2014 mid-term elections that many predict would have been a death sentence
for a lot of democrats who support Obama’s
claim to fame.
But, the Obama Boys to the rescue. Just in time.
Billed as a “major
concession to business groups”, the Obama administration has unexpectedly
announced a one-year delay implementing part of the plan,
until after the 2014 elections, a requirement that companies provide
coverage for their workers or face fines.
You've got to be kidding me, right?
Even liberal
news organizations admit this may help the administration politically, taking
the wind out of the sails of Republicans who had planned to use Obama Care against
democrats next year. "The employer requirements are among the most complex parts
of the health care law, which its proponents say is designed to expand coverage
for uninsured Americans", writes the Raleigh News and Observer.But, at what cost? That, of course, remains the big question. Is there anyone, any-one, who can explain the details of this big plan? Is there anyone who understands Obama Care?
"We have
heard concerns about the complexity of the requirements and the need for more
time to implement them effectively," Treasury Assistant Secretary Mark
Mazur said in a blog post. "We have listened to your feedback and we are
taking action."
If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with BS. The Obama philosophy, on steroids.
I wonder if the now-jubilant business owners, those who had no idea how they were going to deal with the forces behind Obama Care, will remember this when they start writing campaign checks to the Democratic Party next year. My money says the big business gurus will not see what's really going on.
They are as short sighted as 51% of America's voters, now members of the Ostrich Party.
