So The ObamaTax Man has unilaterally decided to put the metaphoric brakes, at least temporarily, on the (Evil) Employer mandate:
"Businesses won’t be penalized next year if they fail to provide workers health insurance after the Obama administration decided to delay a key requirement under its signature 2010 health-care law."
So a couple of questions off the top of my head:
This was legislation he wanted passed, in fact rammed through, and which he signed, and he's only just now figuring out that it's a stink bomb?
Not the brightest light in the harbor, is he?
More to the point, it is the law, how can he just unilaterally suspend it?
Sheesh.
UPDATE: Mike has more:
"Keep in mind this is not the first time HHS was forced to interrupt the planned progress of ACA implementation. Just one example: new enrollment in the individual high-risk pools was stopped because HHS ran out of money (even though only a fraction of the expected population actually enrolled)"
