The Obama administration announced another delay Monday in the requirement on businesses to provide health coverage to workers, giving some employers a reprieve next year while phasing in the mandate for others.
The administration had already delayed the implementation of the so-called employer mandate by a year, initially pushing the requirements off until 2015 -- past the midterm elections. In a concession to business, though, Treasury Department officials announced Monday that the administration would not enforce the rules across the board next year.
Instead, the administration will let employers with 50 to 99 employees off the hook in 2015. They'll be required to report on how many workers are covered but will have until 2016 before being required to cover full-time staff or pay a penalty.
Because it's terrible. Because it's robbing people of their healthcare and/or the lower prices they've been paying for it. Because the promises were broken. Because people are furious. Because it's a secret plan to force us all into single-payer while funneling money back to foreign campaign donors. Because the website is an identity market instead of an insurance market. If you like your identity you can keep it. If you don't here are some new identities for you to pick from. Because it's an outdated idea that has failed and failed again. Because it's a requirement to buy a private product. Tax to death the people who can barely afford it and use that money to pay for those too lazy to do it themselves. And because it's going to get people killed.
