This is an incredible story. An amendment was put on Obamacare so that
federal government employees would be treated like other citizens. Now
there's tremendous
pressure to "fix" this problem, because if it isn't a lot of these
employees are planning on leaving before the end of the year.
To put
this in perspective, a local construction company told us today they
were dropping employee health insurance on January 1. No one is
suggesting a fix for that.
Apparently it's okay for non-government workers to suffer, but not okay
for the government workers.
The fear: Government-subsidized premiums will disappear at the end of the year under a provision in the health care law that nudges aides and lawmakers onto the government health care exchanges, which could make their benefits exorbitantly expensive.
