"I don’t think the employer mandate will go into effect”
Former WH press secretary Robert Gibbs, speaking to a crowd in Colorado yesterday.
Holee shit.
In February, the Obama Administration announced the second delay to the mandate, which requires certain businesses to either offer their full-time employees insurance or pay penalties.
Under the most recently announced delay, employers with between 50 and 99 employees have until January 2016 to offer health insurance or pay a fine. Companies with over 100 employees must offer insurance or pay a fine of $2,000 per worker by January 2015. Those with fewer than 50 employees are not subject to the penalty.
Gibbs argued that most employers with more than 100 workers already offer health insurance, and that only a relatively small number of companies have between 50 and 99 employees.

Of course they offered it, just as so many individuals had health insurance. That was not the problem. The problem is that the policies which were acceptable to the users, did not meet the Obamacare criteria like infant nursing coverage fr 60 year old women.
If any of these policies which are unacceptable change by even one detail they are un-grandfathered and cancelled by the govt and as we all know the new non ‘bad-apple’ coverage will remove disposable income from employees BECAUSE THE NEW POLICIES WILL COST MORE.
And it is the political fallout from that which Robert Gibbs is predicting the administration will seek to avoid.
Every action and non action by this administration now merely creates a more and more cynical voting population.
