The Obama Administration are really a bunch of bastards and their recent behavior with respect to the Affordable Care Act clearly demonstrates this! This past week they postponed the commencement of the employer penalty in the ACA for employers not offering qualified health insurance to its employees until the beginning of 2016 for employers with 50 to 99 employees. They are clearly ignoring the ACA law here, the President's duty is to obey and enforce the law and Barack Obama time and again violates this duty. The ACA clearly says that the employer penalty is to begin on January 1 2014 and he had already postponed it to 2015 now he is extending it for another year for medium size employers and even with respect to large employers he isn't following the law. For large employers pursuant to the ACA they should be covering their employees dependents come January 1 2014 (2015 if you factor in Obama's one year postponement) but the Obama administration has ruled employers don't actually have to do this until 2016 as long as they begin the process in 2015 so employers could do as little as conduct a survey in 2015 asking how many dependents if at all each employee wants to add to their health insurance plan and the employer is compliant; the Obama administration contrary to the ACA time mandates says employers don't have to actually provide qualified health insurance to their employees in 2015 until that employer begins its annual health insurance plan for 2015 the ACA says January 1 is the deadline - America could see prudent employers end their annual plan at the end of November 2014 and begin their new one December 1 2014 so that they will not have to pay the higher health insurance expense for eleven months of 2015! The Obama Administration is really bad because they are doing this delay to hide the negative effects of the ACA on America's employers they know this law adds a significant expense to America's employers which will hurt job creation and hurt wage growth by America's employers but instead of coming out and saying we have a problem here with the economic burden this law puts on America's employers we have to roll back some of the law's insurance mandates they try to hide the problem. It is shocking how ruthless, cunning and how bad the Obama administration is here. With all these recent ACA employer mandate postponement decisions the Obama Administration is delaying the predictable wave of employers dropping their health insurance plans that would have otherwise occurred this summer and fall if Jan. 1 2015 was the commencement date until after the 2014 mid-term elections because during this summer/early fall time period employer human resource managers and top executives have to decide whether to continue offering health insurance to their employees for the 2015 year and these postponements mean that these employers won't see the full costs of the ACA mandates for 2015. Further the Obama administration's essential postponement of the ACA law for the employer mandate until 2016 which is what is going on here means that the full negative economic effects of this law, the dropping of health insurance plans by employers the not replacing of employees that retire or leave for benefit expense reasons, won't be seen until the next President's administration, meaning future Presidential Administrations will have to clean up the huge societal mess brought on by Obamacare! The Obama Administration officials know all of this they know they are mitigating the ACA harm by postponing enforcement and they know that they are not following the ACA law in doing this and yet they are still doing it, this should make every responsible person mad with Barack Obama! What is also important to note is that the American people are smart and many of them know and more will know what the Obama Administration is doing with its cunningness here! What is really unfortunate is that America doesn't have a person of great character in the White House at the present time! The ACA act has a lot of good about it it stops health insurance company abuses like dropping enrollees from their plan when the enrollees get sick it helps people buy health insurance that otherwise would never be able to afford it, etc. and I can understand how President Obama let it become law, but elements of it are catastrophic for America it jacked up the price of employer sponsored health insurance for employers causing them to dramatic cut back on job creation and keep many employees on part-time employment. Where is your character Mr. President that you don't even try to stop this catastrophe on America. The American people know you can't reform the law yourself you need Congress to pass a reform law but character means trying even if you don't succeed why don't you come out and say the obvious truth that the ACA mandates on health insurance plans are too costly America needs to roll them back and I will sign legislation that rolls back unaffordable unnecessary mandates like making preventive care free it is sufficient that it be excluded from the deductible, like treating psychiatric treatments equivalent to non-psychiatric treatments it is sufficient plans only reasonably cover psychiatric treatment if a person is suicidal or cannot function with their psychiatric illness, like covering dental treatments even the dental industry was shocked when that was included in the law, etc.. I would like to ask President Barack Obama and Secretary Kathleen Sebelius each to answer the following question and I would like a commitment from them that they would answer it honestly and this is the question I would ask them how can you say the ACA is good for the economy and at the same time be making extraordinary efforts to delay its implementation which these postponements of the employer mandate required by the ACA do? Many people believe that Barack Obama and liberal Democrats have as their ultimate plan moving American to a single payer government health insurance system and the enactment of ACA role in this plan is to cause a cascading of employers dropping their health insurance which will put many Americans into the ACA entitlement program which helps people pay for health insurance. These liberal democrats thinking is that this single payer system will be just like Medicare which is a great system but it will be for all Americans not just Americans who are senior citizens. There is two major flaws in these liberal democrats thinking which is Medicare only provides a great health care system for seniors because of the private health care system; the Medicare system is a price controlled system meaning that the fees it pays medical care providers are fixed by Medicare and this is the crucial point these fees are not high enough to pay for the system seniors enjoy today private health insurance providers for the vast majority of services pay higher fees to hospital, doctors and other health care providers. The private health insurance system essentially subsidizes the Medicare system if liberal democrats get their way and essentially do away with the private health insurance system and America is left with a large Medicare type system America's health care system will deteriorate to a significantly less quality system because there will not be the money available to pay for the higher quality system. Secondly, in a single payer government system the government is the payer the government pays the claims this would be a humongous expense for the U.S. government where is the government going to get this amount of money the only place would be to tax employers and employees and they would have to be big ones, the American people would never accept this long term they would recognize that a big bureaucratic government cannot efficiently and effectively manage America's health care dollars and they would demand such a system be ended!
