A good read about one liberal's Obamacare cancellation. Excerpt:
Last week the frustration of people like Peter and me—Obamacare supporters who lost their current plans—was heard by the White House, which promptly panicked. On Thursday, President Obama announced a policy change that would allow insurance companies like Regence to keep customers like me on the old Wood plan for one more year. To that I say: Hah! Thanks for nothing.
The idea that an insurer like Regence can, or will, spin on a dime and revive our ol’ $587 Woody within the next six weeks is absurd. It skews the market and undermines the entire premise of the Affordable Care Act – which is that by balancing the halt (allowing pre-existing conditions) and the hale (forcing robust young adults to get in the pool), the exchanges will over time produce a system that offers quality health care at a price my family can afford.
Our liberal finally wakes up when Obama's incompetence affects him personally. But apparently he still doesn't care that Obama and the Dems lied brazenly, lied about their lies, continue to lie, bullshit, and prevaricate, and that when pushed to the wall, Obama tampered 'extra-legally' as pundits delicately put it with what his team referred to as "settled law." But deeper than all this is the crazy assumption that central planning by incompetent bureaucrats can be made to work when experience abundantly teaches that it doesn't.
