No shock here. If the federal government passes enough mandates, and the states can't print money, soon there is no money for the poor.
"Obama administration officials said Friday that the state-based “high-risk pools” set up under the 2010 health-care law will be closed to new applicants as soon as Saturday and no later than March 2, depending on the state." reported in Washington Post today.
The plan is set up to fail--whether intentional or not. The wait to get in the high risk pool means the people are desperately sick by the time they get coverage, and very expensive to treat, thus depleting the money for those waiting. Bad, bad plan that only a massive bureaucracy could come up with.
And ultimately, it is the same plan for the rest of us. Doctors are quitting rather than go along with the insane regulations—the documents to support this massive bill run to thousands of pages. 13,000 pages as of October 12 and 18 pages to define a full time employee. There aren’t enough to meet the Obamacare guidelines and new doctors probably won’t materialize. By the time we get to see a doctor, we’ll be too sick for effective treatment.
The government will add more snoops and IRS agents than doctors or nurses.
