It Depends on What The Definition of ‘Affordable’ Is

The Democrat conquest of the Insurance market continues apace as the IRS has just released some more rules for the commoners to live by.   These ‘rules’ include the definition of ‘affordable’ as in “Patient Affordable Care Act,” and as it turns out…

Nearly 500,00 children, under Obamacare, will still lack health insurance because many poor families will not qualify to get government assistance to buy health insurance because of how Congress defined “affordable.” 

Under the IRS regulations released on Wednesday, families that cannot “afford the employer coverage that they are offered on the job will not be able to get financial assistance from the government to buy private health insurance on their own.”

So the Trillion dollar program we had to have to make sure people who needed insurance could get it…makes it impossible for people who need insurance to get it.  Nice.

So how long before we discover that they changed the definition of  ‘patient‘ and “care” …?
