Full title: IRS Employees Union Is 'Very Concerned' About Being Required To Enroll In Obamacare's Health Insurance Exchanges

In the private sector, many workers are concerned about losing their employer-sponsored health insurance coverage, and being dumped into Obamacare’s subsidized insurance exchanges. Two weeks ago, representatives of three large labor unions fired off a harsh letter to Democratic leaders in Congress, complaining that Obamacare would “shatter…our hard-earned health benefits” and create “nightmare scenarios” for their members. Today, we learn that the National Treasury Employees Union—the union that includes employees of the Internal Revenue Service—is asking its members to write letters to their Congressmen, stating that they are “very concerned” about legislative efforts requiring IRS and Treasury employees to enroll in the Obamacare exchanges.

“I am a federal employee and one of your constituents,” the letter begins. “I am very concerned about legislation that has been introduced by Congressman Dave Camp to push federal employees out of the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) and into the insurance exchanges established under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).”

IRS employees find themselves in an unpleasant “situation”, a word found between s#it and syphilis in the dictionary. They have my sympathy, a word also found between s#it and syphilis in the dictionary.

So, that’s it then....

Since obamacare exempts members of congress and the religion of peace, it is an invalid law. A law applies to everyone, or is invalid.

I guess when you are king, you can make laws that only apply to those you want to cripple financially or want to jail because they oppose this communist take over of the US. I don’t think I’m alone on this but I sense this administration’s ploy is to divide in order to conquer with hope of inciting a hot revolution to justify the unleashing of their well armed goons onto the American people.

The IRS is going to bully and force the rest of us to take ObamaCare but they're too good for it?

That's special...

And the Unions want out too... what's next? Blacks think it's not good enough for them either? Guess every democrat group will get a pass.

Why weren’t they concerned nine months ago when they could have done something to stop it?

What would it take to give all government employees Obamacare and pay them all minimum wage?
