LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- The White House has approved a deal that will exempt members of Congress and their staff from some of the provisions of the Affordable Care Act, Politico reported late Thursday. Under the law, popularly referred to as Obamacare, lawmakers and their aides were required to source health insurance "created" by the law or offered through one of its exchanges, and without the subsidies they currently enjoy, the members of Congress would have faced thousands of dollars in additional premium payments each year, the report said. However, the Office of Personnel Management now plans to rule that the government can continue to make a contribution to the health-care premiums of the lawmakers and their staff, it said, citing unnamed congressional sources and a White House official.

I would like to challenge anyone to explain how Obamacare is a good legislation when some of the very people that voted for it will be exempt from it?

If that doesn't give you a hint as to how terrible that health care reform is, then nothing will wake you up.

So these idiots wrote into the law that they could no longer have subsidies for health insurance (which sounds like the equivalent of a contribution by an employer to an employee for a group plan)?

If they were dumb enough to do that then they should have to live with it

Uncle Sam never moves this fast on anthing so this means that they know full well that Obamacare is a disaster. Further, the intent isn't for free healthcare for the masses, its so leftist douchbags get to decide who lives and dies and increase those that depend on the government. Obamacare is just a vehicle for it. I also love how the douchbag n chief refers to Obamacare as "obamacare" when he talks about it. The ego on this guy.....

1.   Where did you get the idea that the insurance being made available was free
2.   Where did you get the idea that "leftists" want to decide who lives and dies.   Do you have any idea how crazy that sounds
