Obamacare call center employees will not be offered healthcare benefits

July 26, 2013

   The last two Obamacare updates are ripe with irony (or better yet, hypocrisy) as earlier tonight we found out that even though the IRS is morphing into the Obamacare gestapo, and will be charged with putting their boots on the necks of those in non-compliance with the Affordable Healthcare Act, their union is moving to ensure that IRS employees do not have to join Obamacare.

  As hypocritical as that story is it is followed on its heals by another story which just might be even more hypocritical: The Obama regime is setting up a 24 hour call center to help people with questions about the healthcare reform law, but even though the jobs were advertised as being full time positions many of them will actually be part time positions.

  What this means is that while these people are employed by the Obama regime to help people understand the healthcare reform law they will not be provided with healthcare themselves.

  Many companies are cutting the hours of their full time employees down to part time in order to avoid the healthcare law and cut costs, and now it appears as if Barack Obama is doing the same with those whom he employs.

    This is looking more and more like a Three Stooges movie.

    They need people to pay in to the system-while not utilizing the system. At a certain point this thing has to collapse onto itself. Looking at the bright side.

      There is no way this is sustainable and you have to think they know that. This was part of the plan all along in order to get single-payer.

        With the luck we have, those of us that are still earning a bit more than it takes to live (how dare us live frugally), will have that taken from us in the form of more taxes. Why not? What will we do about it? If nothing else, they will give the workers a name of someone that can not pay for their healthcare and make us personally responsible for their bills. Sounds stupid, but look who we are talking about! I would not put it past them to pull off something along these lines. At this point, anything goes for them, they HAVE to make this work, desperate people do desperate things to save face.

        I do not doubt it one bit Lou. Somebody is going to have to pay for this and if it isn’t the working people who will it be?

    I continually stand in awe at the ability of this administration to talk out of both sides of their mouth. The hypocrisy is astounding.

    That piece of shit pisses me off more and more EVERY DAY! I can not wait for January 2017! I want to see him have a heart attack, or a plane crash, or a successful assassination attempt, or some other thing that will put an END to his realm. I don’t give a shit what anyone else thinks, Joe Biden would be a breath of fresh air compared to that bastard!

    Now, would you like to hear what I really think? heh heh
