More Obamacare waivers
No real surprise here… As of the end of March the Obama administration has now granted a total of 1168 waivers from the requirements of Obamacare. This represents an increase of 129 waivers since the end of February.
All told, we now have some 2.93 million people whom our government has “helped” keep their insurance.
Waivers are only granted if,
the plan [i.e., the company, the union, the state] certifies that a waiver is necessary to prevent either a large increase in premiums or a significant decrease in access to coverage.
Funny, I thought Obamacare was supposed to decrease premiums and increase access to coverage.
Maybe I missed something.

Unreal. I must still be asleep.
No, our so called representatives were asleep, bamboozled or bullied into passing this POS legislation.
At least the market for (political) band aids will skyrocket!

Waivers for the politically connected, maybe?
Well, I hope yoga remains a covered expense…..
that way I can put my head between my legs and kiss my a__ 'goodbye".
Jeez!? Another thing pols are exempted from (because they are naturally able to put their whole heads up there…..)!?? 😉
