If Obamacare is so wonderful, why do companies get exemptions?

Careful Galen, this link is to a video of Fox News. Hate for you to get a rash.

Come on Congress, just defund this abomination then Repeal after a Bag of Rocks is elected our next POTUS in 2012.

Um, companies have to apply for exemptions. That doesn't mean they're gonna get it but in
this case 111 companies got it. It also comes at the hands of defeat in the mid terms. Had
it been the other way around, we wouldn't be reading this.

It has to do with the law that private insurers have to pay for 85% of a companies health package.
This is the govt's attempt to finish off private insurers and make it state owned and run health
care to the letter.

I posted a link where McDonalds was dropping coverage for over 30,000 employees
if they didn't get the waiver because their insurer couldn't afford that 85%. Their insurer
had no comment. It's a lot easier said than done.

Looks like McDonald's insurer was one of the ones that got it - BCS.

Because Obamacare is about making the everyman pay, not the big coorporate types. They get exemptions because they are allowed to get richer and richer while the middle class and small businesses are eliminated.

It's all part of the plan, duh...

It's an assasination, done covertly out in the open...
