YOU CAN KEEP KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD, BUT BASICALLY, NOBODY WANTS IT: Government Blinks Again on Obamacare. “The IRS emphasizes that this is a one-time-only deal, just for 2014. But I’m not sure if you should believe that. This emphasizes one of the problems we’ve spoken about a lot in this space: The political will to impose the costs of the Affordable Care Act is a lot less strong than the will to distribute the benefits. At every turn, when it has come time to actually make people bear the price, the government has blinked. The employer mandate was delayed, cuts to Medicare Advantage were delayed, deadlines to purchase insurance were pushed back, and now the need to repay excess subsidies has been eased.”
ObamaCare — the policy that’s so popular, it never takes effect until after the next election!
