Why does Obama continue to delay the employer mandate?

Wants to keep the midterms semi fair for Republicans, once the great ACA fully kicks in the Dems will just be so popular they won't even have elections anymore.

And how will/can it be improved in the meantime? Does anybody on the left really care if it improves?


















No and no.

Not a lefty, but isn't Obama creating two separate classes? One who has regular pre ACA insurance and who pays one amount and keeps thrif plan and Drs. and another class who gets a plan they may not want, a super sized plan with new Drs . At an entirely different rate.

It seems like he is fostering a system of health insurance segregation.

You could also say, "does anyone on the right want this to succeed?"
No

Bout time republicans began to figure out they're screwed. We have a president that's accomplished virtually nothing outside of an unfavorable ACA and the republicans are still a worse alternative.

Obviously sarcasm on your part yet so remarkably true.

You won't get the true answer. They will not admit it is for purely political desperation. The left know they have committed suicide were the ACA allowed to go into law as planned.

I'm a liberal and i don't like the ACA at all, albeit for very different reasons than conservatives.

ACA is crony capitalism at its worst. This is all one big handout to the insurance companies.

It is quite possible, if not entirely likely, that Obamacare will not get fully implemented in Obama's presidency. Think about that for a moment.

In his defense, 7yrs isn't enough time to convince the American people to eat a bag of dog shite.

It's difficult to be on board with something that is a really, really bad idea.


Has nothing to do with succeed/fail.

Just curious (because I believe you are for universal health care), is there another developed country comparable to our population that has universal health care? This is an honest question. I don't know. I'm not trying to set up a gotcha moment.

I would personally love if more doctors stop accepting insurance, removed the bureaucracy and restored the doctor/patient relationship.

No...at least nothing that is even close to par with reference to the standard of care. There is a reason why dignitaries from around the world fly to Harbor View in Seattle and HHS in New York for procedures.
