Wow. There goes a big reason for “Gay Marriage” - the queers were trying to get their “spouses” on these Cadillac insurance policies that Universities and others were offering.
To err is human. But to really FUBAR requires government intervention.
FUBO!!
My mailman said that because my spouse has her own car I can not loger buy the car insurance plan I want
Wow - I can see where it would be cool to have all kind of other people deciding what insurance I need
I don’t know much about this admittedly.
But tell me, doesn’t this mean that these people will have to pay for two insurance policies instead of one?
UPS did this the other day, Delta is threatening to do this, how many others will pass this around?
It would seem that in some case the people whose wives can get insurance from their own employers would perhaps be better off to just quit working. Paying for two costly insurance policies in a family is going to be rough.
This Obamacare BS is starting to get rough.
The Affordable Care Act certainly achieved its goal of eliminating affordable care.
They can now claim victory in the War on Affordable Care.
Well, he sure is transforming America.
Next, the world.
Oh wait..
Arab Spring uhhh Summer Blisters
I feel sorry for the UVA employees who did not vote for 0bama. Those who did vote for 0bama got what they asked for.
I don’t know much about politics at the University of Virginia, but most of academia happily did their part to put the arrogant racist commie poser in office - twice.
I would be surprised if the majority at this university are any different.
So I say: “Reap what you sowed.”
It always bother me the Liberal hypocrisy. Whenever they talk about how rich should pay more, ITS ALWAYS MEANS EVERYONE ELSE but themselves
I hate Obamacare as much as the other person, but I honestly don’t know what the problem is here. Why should any company provide spousal benefits to someone who has benefits available from another job or source? Microsoft did this several years ago as a cost cutting measure before Obama was even elected. They were paying millions for non-employees who had benefits available at their current job.
First UPS, now UVA changes the health care it provides to employees due to 0bamacare mandates. As a person pointed out to me, 0bama said “your” i.e. individual, not “your spouses” health care.
“And this is why democrats wanted it because they think it will lead to single payer/socialized medicine. “
The reality is that a large number of liberals are very simplistic in their world view, and were clueless about what it was they were trying to do with health care. To them, the fact that supporting it made them ‘progressive’, and ‘European-like’ was a big draw. I wish it wasn’t that ridiculous, but it actually is.
The University System of Ga just did the same thing. It covers 31 colleges and universities in the state of Ga.
Some more “change”
How the heck does the insurance company, or the university for that matter, know where the spouse works, or IF the spouse works?
I’m glad these know it all libs are finally getting their way. :)
They are covering spouses not covered elsewhere (they don’t have to) only, which seems to be discriminatory.
Anybody living in Virginia who even dares to think about voting for Terry McAuliffe- the man who helped Obamacare become a reality- deserves whatever misery is coming down the pike if he wins.
