Obama Care loophole

[SB Shock]

You can be exempt from Obama care based on "religious conscience". The exemption was put by Sen. Charles Schumer to placate his Amish constituents.

Marci A. Hamilton, who teaches at the University's Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, wrote at Findlaw.com in August, "If the government can tolerate a religious exemption, then it must do so evenhandedly among religious believers with the same beliefs. This is sheer favoritism for a certain class of religions, or even for one religion."

What about members of religions that object over funding abortions? Not trying to stir up a hornets nest but what's the difference?

I have been waiting for something to collapse this impending disaster, and I think it could be this......Every single person that doesn't want to pay for insurance just got an out.

There is no way they can allow 1 group an exemption and not another.

Now, I'm confident these idiots will push forward and just ignore that they lost the income from every self employed contractor in the country, hoping that we (taxpayers) will not notice until its too late and welfare checks have already gone out.

We're on the fast track to single payer health care, which is what the idealogues have wanted all along.

It's so scary that "idiocracy" could actually be prophetic.

They will loophole this to death, just like the tax system.

The president who claimed he wouldn't have any lobbyists on his staff and who claimed to put the proceedings on CSPAN and who claimed to be immune to special interests has lied on all accounts.

Now the unions are after him bigtime:

WASHINGTON - President Obama told labor leaders in a tense two-hour closed door tussle over whether to tax health care benefits that he backed the tax, which labor leaders vehemently oppose, but also supports efforts "to protect working men and women."

Their problem? Labor leaders say you can't have it both ways. Some now openly accuse Obama of doing that and violating one of his most important early promises in the health care debate: that if you like the coverage you have, you will be able to keep it.

Another lie.
