ObamaCare Will ‘Hit the Fan’
Says a Democrat.
Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA) actually voted against ObamaCare in 2010, and now he’s warning that the law’s delayed provisions mean the health care system’s troubles are “going to hit the fan.” In fact, he says, “There are parts of ObamaCare, or the Affordable Care Act, that were postponed because they are unpalatable.” For example, he points to the tax on so-called “Cadillac” plans that goes into effect in a few years, noting that it will be “the first time in this country’s history that we have actually taxed health care.” All of it spells disaster for Democrats this fall, he predicts: “We will lose seats in the House. I am fairly certain of that based on the poll numbers that are coming out from the more experienced pollsters down there, and I think we may lose the Senate.” Here’s hoping he’s right.
