Yep..what a deal.<br /><br />I really would like to see Republicans play like Obama: no compromises. The beauty of sequester is that it illustrates Barky's petulance: "Fine. No more White House tours."<br /><br />Spectacular backfire.MAX Redlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040240474444763721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17669835.post-59092955658900205702013-03-16T11:51:31.251-07:002013-03-16T11:51:31.251-07:00Max, I always laugh at "no-cost" come-on...Max, I always laugh at "no-cost" come-ons. Somebody has to pay. It just may not be the actual receiver. No-cost is great when it's done by volunteers since they bear the cost of the goods and services they give. $450/month is nowhere near low cost, let alone no-cost.<br /><br />What Republicans have going for them is that without major new funding, there isn't going to be enough to even minimally subsidize this money sink hole. So, like with sequester, no action is a loss for the Obama administration. And it will be interesting to see what liberal businesses do when Obamacare costs make PERS costs look extremely reasonable in comparison. I can hardly wait for the Oregonian editorial.<br /><br />Another get your chair and popcorn moment is coming.T.

No-cost flu shots are already part of their plan, and have been for several years. On the other hand, under their current set of plans, the relatively affordable "bronze" one leaves members exposed to thousands of out-of-pocket costs in addition to the $450 a month premiums.<br /><br />I doubt that taxpayers are going to be thrilled over the idea of picking up those costs.<br /><br />But, as nanny said, "We have to pass this bill so you can find out what's in it."MAX Redlinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040240474444763721noreply@blogger.com
