I think there's a key quote from President Obama in the report published by the Ways & Means Committee. When demonstrating that the POTUS changed his pledge that people would be able to keep their health insurance, he was reported to have said..."some of the provisions that got snuck in might have violated (my) pledge."

With all the stuff that lobbyists and political opponents were stuffing into the Rube Goldberg of a bill at the last minute, do you think for a moment that one of Obama's political opponents might have inserted the time bomb language that has the results described in the House report? After all, few if any members of Congress actually read the bill before passing it...that much we know for sure. I know I believe that's a distinct possibility.

But even if the report is correct and something like one-third of all the people with employer provided health insurance lose it, I guess I might ask...so what?

The opponents of what's called ObamaCare have sued to get it overturned. The Supreme Court will rule on the question in a month or so. There's a good chance that the whole thing will be overturned, throwing tens of millions of people back onto the rolls of the totally uninsured.

So what's the difference whether the uninsured get there because of some possible political shenanigans leading to an economic decision made by their employer? Or people lose their coverage because of a politically-driven lawsuit? Either way, it throws our complete healthcare system into a huge mess, worse than it was before ObamaCare. The problem can only be fixed by some thoughtful discussion and compromise, leading to legislation that will replace ObamaCare. The alternative would be leaving tens of millions of Americans uninsured, so Congress really must do something. Right?

Who wants to rely on Congress to fix any problem like this? This Congress? This problem? Don't count me in.
