A logistical nightmare — caused by idealogues who do not know the definition of logistics.

Logistics makes things work. They throw monkey wrenches into the works, and somehow STILL expect things to work?!?

they were blindsided

Don't you just love it when someone commits you to do something, without asking you first?

Insurance Companies were given a license to steal called Obamacare exchanges. They were doing good at it too. The Obama changed the rules.

He has no right to change the rules but he did, and no one will buck him because he is black and they don’t want to be called racist.

These insurance companies better be careful. Obamacare is whatever Obama says it is, and it’s enforced by Obama’s IRS.

The Insurance Industry can follow the Law of the Land until it is legally repealed or amended.

He didn't commit them to do anything. That's the thing about this "fix" - it's not intended to fix anything, but rather to shift the blame. All this "fix" is intended to do is to allow 0bama to say "I allowed insurance companies to sell these policies - if they choose not to, that's their fault, not mine."

They can, but then they alienate their policyholders who want the old policies and have just heard Obama tell them (again) that they can keep their old policies.

OTOH, renewing the old policies is an administrative nightmare.

Obama has put the ins. cos. in a no-win situation. Their best way out would be for the state insurance commissioners to not allow the old policy renewals, as the WA commissioner did.

Correct, it wasn’t “commit,” it’s more like when someone says, “I’m sure MUDDOG wouldn’t mind coming over and doing such-and-such for you.”
