YOU'RE FROM A UNION? OKAY A WAIVER FOR YOU!!!

We're talking ObamaCare here. You know .. that wonderful "we've got to pass it so you can see what's in it" piece of legislation that is going to make our search for health care a no-brainer?
Now we're supposed to be a nation of law, right? The way I learned it was that in the United States the law applied to everyone; rich and poor - common citizen or legislator - everyone had an equal obligation to abide by the law. Well, that's not exactly the way it is working out for Obama's occupying forces.
Here's the way it works in ObamaWorld. Legislation is passed by the congress. It is then signed into the law by the president. At that point the law applies to everyone, right? Well ..... er .... no, actually. It seems that in ObamaWorld the law applies to whomever Obama thinks it should apply to ... and it doesn't apply to those Obama wants to skate free. That's the way we want it to work, right? The law is passed and goes on the books ... and then the president decides who has to obey and who doesn't.
As I said ... in this particular case the law is ObamaCare, and the ObamaCare provision that is causing the problems is the requirement that companies raise the minimum annual benefit included in "Mini-Med" low-cost health plans for seasonal, part time and low wage workers. McDonalds, for instance, was offering a Mini-med plan for it's low-wage and part time workers that would pay a maximum of $2000 a year in benefits for around $2.00 a day. ObamaCare would have required McDonalds to raise the minimum benefits level, so McDonalds let the word slip out that it was going to cancel the plan. Obama quickly stepped in and ordered a waiver for McDonalds. So, now we know that this law doesn't apply to McDonalds. Next up to the plate we find a branch of the American Federation of Teachers. They wanted a waiver too ... and Obama wasted no time saying yes. Nothing is out of the question when unions come calling at the White House.
In the meantime there are countless small businesses in this country who might like to be exempted from this law as well. Good luck. Perhaps if you would unionize your workforces you might get Obama's attention.
