IRS employee union: We don’t want Obamacare
Washington Examiner ^ | July 25, 2013 | Joel Gehrke

Posted on 07/26/2013 8:38:03 AM PDT by Velveeta

IRS employees have a prominent role in Obamacare, but their union wants no part of the law.

National Treasury Employees Union officials are urging members to write their congressional representatives in opposition to receiving coverage through President Obama’s health care law.

The union leaders are providing members with a form letter to send to the congressmen that says “I am very concerned about legislation that has been introduced by Congressman Dave Camp to push federal employees out of the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program and into the insurance exchanges established under the Affordable Care Act.”

The SS guards wouldn’t have wanted the same health care as the concentration camp inmates either.

I predict a batch of new waivers coming in the Friday Evening Document Dump heading into Labor Day.

The IRS is the agency tasked with enforcing Obamacare. That would mean an increase in IRS employees with a corresponding increase in Union members. And the Union still doesn’t want it. Should tell you something about Obamacare.

My enrolled agent gnome tells me...

* The 16,000 new agents aren't for Obamacare, but for dependent fraud investigation given the code is complicated in this arena.
* That they don't want to be the enforcer of this mess...

We don’t want an IRS employee union...in fact we don’t want an IRS.

“This is NOT satire.”

I’m beginning to believe political satire, no longer exists.

Federal civil service retirees (also currently unaffected by Obamacare) want no part of it, either).

“The IRS is the agency tasked with enforcing Obamacare. That would mean an increase in IRS employees with a corresponding increase in Union members. And the Union still doesn’t want it. Should tell you something about Obamacare.”

Actually, that’s not what the union form letter says. It says that IRS employees should stay on the cushy Federal Employees health plan and NOT be forced into Obamacare. So far, it’s a twofer for the union. They get all those extra employees to torture normal Americans, those employees pay lots of union dues, AND none of the employees have to suffer under Obamacare themselves.

The union just wants to make sure it stays a twofer.

Well, can’t they just audit the hell out of all of the Dem congressmen who voted for it, in order to “convince” them to rethink it? :) They have a good track record of doing this sort of thing...

They realize that their fellow workers will be the enforcement arm and they don’t want to be subjected to dealing with scum!

They didn’t say that they did not want Obamacare at all, just that they don’t want to be forced to transition from their current federal system into Obamacare.

They still want you to be forced into it!
