Turns out there’s no free lunch, even if you’re among those lucky few dining at the Harvard Faculty Club.
The New York Times is feasting on the delicious uproar created by Harvard professors who are now outraged to be hit with higher health care costs as a result of ObamaCare. I hardly know where to start on this one. Perhaps with the fact that the article appears in the New York Times? I will let that one go for the moment.
Here’s what’s clear: Health care costs at Harvard are going up. Immediately. And they are rising directly as a result of ObamaCare.

Hoisted on their own petard.As well as the rest of us.
The true nature of the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010” finally hits home. As it provides neither “patient protection” nor “affordable care”, only the part about “2010” in its title seems to reflect anything of the real world.
And at that, the “Cadillac” level of benefits provided are far more than most families have been able to obtain through the Obamacare exchange policies. These people got hit with a $250 deductible, and they thought that they got got (to use the vernacular) “shafted”? How abut the families subsisting on about a tenth of their overly lavish salaries being hit with a deductible that was $2,500 to $4,000? And now find out they are NOT getting a subsidy?
I detect a distinct lack of empathy.
And it’s only the beginning. Obamacare is designed to eventually destroy all private insurance plans and turn all health care delivery over to the state. Single payer will be the law of the land if Obamacare is not repealed completely. this is what Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the rats always had in store for America. It’s the reason they’ve always had to lie about the law and are still telling big fat whoppers.
That the faculty of Harvard was too dumb to realize this is quite telling of the state of academia these days. And if they had any good sense or shame it would embarrass the hell out of them.
Oh the irony!
Harvard faculty is not “outraged over healthcare hikes”, they are outraged that someone else isn’t paying for it.
Excellent point. The welfare mentality strikes again.
LOOK for Harvard to get an “EXCEPTION”...
The elites in power better hope I don’t get sick and told I won’t be treated because of my age and will be allowed to die. I will not go peacefully. Anyone else with me?
They’re faced with $250 deductibles. Oh the horror!!
The Harvard faculty has finally reached the point of “finding out” what was in that monstrous piece of legislation.
Sorry profs... it’s already law... and it doesn’t exempt you. Sucks to be treated like one of the lowly “little people,” doesn’t it?
Good!! Typical liberals, they support something as great as long as it doesn’t apply to them.
Happy to see they finally caught up to understanding what those dumb people in the Tea Party knew five years ago.....
LOL
Yes. I have already announced that I refuse to attend the mandory “end of life” seminars mandated in ACA. Let them jail me. I refuse to attend anything the Fed governments make mandatory. I’m simply not going to do it. They can shove their Obamacare death panels up their arses. I will not comply.
