I don’t read this as permanent just that they want to recoup the shortfall they were promised. If they were promised it they should get it paid. I don’t know if they are debating the amounts or the calculations or if the HHS is simply refusing to honor the commitment.
Just another headache over this debacle of a law that did not get anyone health care it only gave us mandatory health insurance premiums. Now they want to try again? I am amazed anyone still wants government to try again to get involved in healthcare. They cannot run the DMV. They cannot run the schools. They cannot run the border. They cannot run the HUD housing. The war on Drugs, the war on Poverty, the war on illiteracy are we “winning”?
The House has accomplished nothing but political attacks since the Dems took over, and Congress little even with the GOP in charge of it all. Why anyone would want th government to manage anything anymore is beyond me.
If a man disabled with a hangnail is promised disability and then the caseworker reneges, does he have a case?
A promise from a politician is meaningless. I manage a CMS financed contract, $100Million to a big IT company. My boss can cancel that contract with any or no excuse given.
