About Those Waivers

After penning this post about the latest Obamacrap waiver for states, it occurred to me this is not really a gift.

States may be given a pass from participating in Obamacrap if they come up with a plan that meets the same criteria for coverage and affordability.

But what is the target for defining affordable?

In spite of what has been promised, there is nothing in Obamacrap that will reduce the cost of health care, or health insurance. So if the states set up a plan and the premiums increase over current levels (which they will), what is the repercussion to the states?

Question number two is this.

Even if all 57 states are granted a waiver from Obamacrap, does that mean all the new taxes contained in the bill are still in play?

My guess would be yes.
