It is not just the man on the street who is worried his health insurance premiums will skyrocket next year when the full load of the Affordable Care Act’s provisions go into effect. Dozens of lawmakers and their aides are so worried their health insurance will reach unmanageable levels that they are thinking about retiring early, or even just quitting. Obamacare’s mandates will cause their government-subsidized premiums to disappear at the end of this year.

Boo f$$kin hoo. Next time read a bill before you support it.

Hard to say what is the bigger irony: the idea there are brains to drain on Capitol Hill or the fact those brains wrote and approved this legislative abortion.

I pray they are hurt worst of all by obozocare.

Good. It’s time the parasites had to get REAL jobs.

Oh wait, the parasites destroyed private enterprise. Oh well, they’ll just have to get by on food stamps.

[Olog-hai]

Do they fear it enough to repeal it? Doesn’t look that way, does it.

The original "Brain Drain" occurred in UK when socialized medicine went into effect there. That's why you can't find an English-speaking doctor anywhere in England and people die of thirst lying in hospital beds.

Don't care...Kama, Baby. Life is tough,deal with it.

[rockinqsranch]

Curious as to what sort of minds with what sort of agendas will be replacing them.

They’re all talk. They just make noises but don’t dare cross the line.

True, and there's a revolving door between govt and companies that exist to serve govt. That's why many of the wealthiest counties in the US are in the beltway region. Most of these folks that leave will get significant raises.

So at least there was one good thing about Obamacare?

What's the down side? Sounds like win-win-win-win to the N^th to me.

[factoryrat]

No it won't, all of the doctors will be replaced with low cost immigrants through the upcoming amnesty program. Better brush up on your foreign languages if you want to understand what your doctor tells you, and hope your pharmacist gets it right.

[Bobalu]

I like your tagline :-)

[headstamp 2]

So it was OK for the rabble but not the sainted ones in DC?

Cry me a river. Welcome to my world you lying hacks.

[DoughtyOne]

Lead to a brain drain?

You mean they do believe in trickle down... from the Obama White House?

[Mygirlsmom]

What did the five fingers of REALITY say to the face of Congress?

SLAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
