“Obamacare” won’t make it to the midterms. Wayyy too many pissed-off low-info voters (the Democrat base). Never has a political party done anything that more alienated its essential voters than the 100% Democrat “Obamacare” has. They’ll keep desperately spinning it, but it’s curtains.
Why is there a delay?
As a contingency.
On July 2 Obama announced a year delay for business with 50 or more employees.
Why? Because in March[1,2] he was briefed on a report warning of the potential for system failure that could make the health care exchanges inaccessible to consumers trying to buy insurance through them.
Most people have insurance through their employer.
By delaying the mandate for employers he minimized the number of persons effected by a non-functioning website.
His illegal delay decree ought to be declared by Congress as irrelevant, of no force, and DEMAND that the law be enforced. DO NOT GIVE OBAMA THE LUXURY OF TIME.
TIME IS NOT OUR ALLY - IT IS OBAMA'S!
He’s betting on the website being operational by the time the vast majority of people lose their employer provided insurance.
CEDING TIME TO OBAMA MEANS WE LOSE.
