Parsimony – Obama Overhaul
In “Parse-imony” I break down current news stories with my pithy, running commentary…
First the headline…
Obama pulls plug on part of health overhaul law
…and now the story:
WASHINGTON – (AP) — The Obama administration says it is unable to go forward with a major program in the president’s signature health care overhaul law — a new long-term care insurance plan. [broken promises]
Officials said Friday the long-term care program has critical design flaws that can’t be fixed to make it financially self-sustaining. [Perhaps had they spent a little time doin some cipherin they could have figured this stuff out ahead of time. It is hard to believe that the White House’s fiscal projections were flawed.]
