ObamaCare: Too Pricey For The Rich

One of President Obama’s most ardent liberal supporters has defected from ObamaCare.

Rep. Jared Polis, D-Boulder, told a Colorado health policy think tank that ObamaCare premiums will be too expensive for some of the wealthiest addresses in America – ski resorts like Breckenridge and Keystone.

He says he’s asking the feds to let them sit out the president’s national health system.

“We will be encouraging a waiver,” Polis told Health Policy Solutions in a story that ran today. “It will be difficult for Summit County residents to become insured. For the vast majority, it’s too high a price to pay.”

The resorts are in Summit County and Aspen is in a neighboring county, which Polis also represents. He has consistently voted in favor of ObamaCare.

comically ironic how all those that voted for it don't seem to want to "pay for it"


but it isn't nearly as funny and ironic as the senators lining up to vote for a one year delay...

had the [email protected]$$es just voted for it three weeks ago we could have avoided a shut down...

if I was the house I would offer to send up a bill right after they apologized to the American people for shutting down the government for spite and political reasons

Dems join call to delay ObamaCare mandate

Several Democratic senators are calling on the Obama administration to delay enforcement of the health care law's individual mandate

The Democratic dominoes began to fall quickly Wednesday, after Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., circulated a letter urging President Obama to extend enrollment beyond March 31, 2014.

Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., in a statement released late Wednesday, said: "I believe, given the technical issues, it makes sense to extend the time for people to sign up."

Shaheen and several moderate Democrats supporting her, including Pryor, are up for re-election in 2014, and no doubt taking note of the widespread discontent with the launch of HealthCare.gov.

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who is not up for election next year, is working on a bill that would delay the IRS penalty for one year for anyone who does not get insurance.

I wonder if they ever heard the saying... let them lay in the bed they made?
