BUT all Federal Employees (Judges, Congress, Exec. Branch) should have to go through the exchanges for their coverage vs. having a number of private insurance options. Get this little amendment passed and Obamacare will be dead by legislation within 6 months.
Dead, dead, dead.
“If a federal employee has health care, and contributes, say, $400 per month toward the premium (normal premium sharing as in the public sector), I don’t think it should be more than $400 per month for them after Obamacare;”
No. Federal employees should pay whatever the open-ended cost will be, just like the great unwashed taxpayers that actually pay for it all.
While I agree that it SHOULD be stopped, I have no reason to believe that it WILL be stopped, so everybody should enjoy the fruits of socialism equally, until the wheels fall off.
