"Why is one-fifth of all Obamacare waiver recipients in Nancy Peolosi's district?"

With that opening line of the following link as an attention-grabber, read the rest of it here:

Check out the paragraph in the above link about REI's exemption from Obamacare. Listen, isn't it about time to admit that the GOP may have been onto something when they said this approach to health care 'reform' wouldn't work? How much more proof do you need than nearly 1,400 exemptions for the very people who wanted this reform in the first place? Good Grief Folks! I feel like I'm in some kind of alternate Bizzaro-style universe.

When is it going to register with those who supported the Dems' health care reform that some 1,400 exemptions, mostly to union workers, are a collective testament to the reform's failure to produce the claimed results?

While I'm at it, I'm going to remind you of one of the biggest disconnects in legislative history. Prior to the passage of Obama's health care reform, Americans were totally up in arms about the rising costs of health care. The 'reform' The People wanted was lower health care costs. The reform they got was anything BUT control of the costs. In fact, it's proving so costly that nearly 1,400 exemptions have been given, mostly to unions who had everything to do with getting it passed in the first place. I'd laugh at the irony if it weren't so frustrating and irritating.
