"President Obama said repeatedly during the health-care debate that people who like their current coverage would be able to keep it. But an early draft of an administration regulation estimates that many employers will be forced to change their health plans under the new law."

"What we are getting here is a clear indication that most plans will have to change," said James Gelfand, health policy director for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. "From an employer's point of view, that's a bad thing. These changes, whether or not they're good for consumers, are most certainly accompanied by a cost."

What Obama said was technically true. What he conveniently left out is the old plans would likely have a tremendous increase in premium.

He's a douche politician.

I thought his entire reasoning for this plan was health care costs would decrease because we wouldn't be sharing the costs of uninsured ER visits and hospital stays?
