The most recent count on "waivers" from Obamacare is 1,372. That is, 1,372 businesses, state and local governments, labor unions and insurers have been exempted by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius from the requirements mandated by Obamacare for at least one year.
These 1,372 entities cover 3,095,593 individuals. More than half of those individuals are in plans issued by labor unions, the Democrat party’s biggest political ally. Union members make up just 12 percent of all employees but have received 50.3 percent of Obamacare waivers.
Recently, Obama’s HHS Secretary granted 38 waivers to higher-end restaurants, nightclubs, spas and hotels in former Speaker Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco congressional district.
Apparently, in Obama’s administration how much you suffer under the federal government’s mandates depends on who you know.
