So if they are going to make sure everyone has great health insurance — Why would they penalize anyone who has a really good plan?
Duh, unless they don’t want people having really good health coverage.

They should be happy to support the redistribution policies of their candidate. What they didn’t figure on was redistribution included them too.
Poor mental midgets (no offense to midgets intended)

Now there's a trick even Carter couldn't do: turning the Holly-weird effete against a Demo-rat Pres__ent!

The vocal limosine liberals could care less about this. The ones I’d like to see broke and penniless will be undamaged. This is about support staff, minor players. But the liberals too, so screw them!

The Democrat’s plan was to go after the top end plans that they enjoyed when they were lawyers and corporate VP’s. They didn’t realize that unions insist on these company-paid Cadillac plans for their members.
Rich people can just slide back to catastrophic plans and get medical savings accounts. Unions cannot.

Oh please. They will still fund and support the Democrats no matter what. Just like the SEIU going to Mass-O-Taxes to support Coakley, while pretending to oppose taxes on “cadillac” health plans.

If libs wanted “to make sure that everyone had health insurance”,
they could pay for it themselves.
We all know that’s not the point of “healthcare reform”.

Maybe Streisand, Sarandon or Michael Moore will toss them a couple of bucks when they drive past them in their Rolls Royce...

Look for a “union member exemption” coming soon.

I doubt that is legal. Even using an income barrier would be problematic because union members make a lot of money.

It’s also probably not legal to force people to buy insurance,
nor is it legal to exempt Nebraska in perpetuity from medicare increases,
but they’ve written those things into the bill.

So instead tax “the rich”. Of course people who make $500K (or whatever tomorrow’s definition of “rich” will be) negotiated their high salaries with years of education, hard work, risk, blood, sweat and tears.

Public employee union thugs should be in the cross hairs as well.
