Obamacare Is Falling Apart Before Our Eyes
Obamacare madness, Christmas edition.
4:31 PM, Dec 20, 2013 • By JAMES C. CAPRETTA
The wrecking ball swung again toward the crumbling Obamacare edifice yesterday. Ironically, it continues to be the Obama administration that is operating the heavy machinery.
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius announced, in the form of a letter to Democratic senators, that Obamacare’s individual mandate tax will be waived in 2014 for persons who had their policies canceled in 2013 due to Obamacare.
At this point, after months of on-the-fly pronouncements, delays, and exemptions (often announced, not coincidentally, in the days just before a major national holiday), perhaps nothing should surprise us anymore about Obamacare’s disastrous rollout. But yesterday’s announcement is still startling because of what it says about the state of the president’s signature domestic legislation. The law is falling apart before our eyes.

My favorite analysis is the WSJ’s on the president’s postponing all dates and deadlines: “Obama repeals Obamacare”
My second favorite is the analysis that says “The President has does everything Ted Cruz asked him to do.”
obama is not the only one . the village services are too. I talked to one of the workers to day doing leaves and asked them what is going on with the leaf pick up this year, the worker said they have not been replacing workers when they retire. the driver of the truck said that the d p w had 27 workers in 1995 in 2000 they had 20 in 2005 they had 15. now we are down to 6 , and in the past two years the village had help from fe ma witch gave the village 15 workers for free of charge. the driver said they made 15,bucks a hr for 40hr’s a week.so that is 80hrs of pay 1.200 every two weeks.and at 26,pays in a year it is 31.200 a year. x two years is 62.400 bucks yeah and x that by 15 workers is about a mill , and they worked over time too.if you do the numbers thats big money the village saved. and now they are gone and the village just laid off 10 part timer workers too.in the past few months we had a good 5 workers retire and now we are real low in staff. the council needs to know to hire workers. in the police and fire dept’s they put one a few new workers. it’s bull shit,, the mayor and council do not know all that is going on. they need to talk to the workers for the right info. because a few are bull shiting them. if the mayor and council would like the right info set up a meeting with the workers only. no top managers.what do they have to louse.it’s time. no wonder we hear of top managers looking to run. well, well,
and it’s not heather. it’s # 2 and # 3 need to go.# 2 is making # 1 look real bad.
