Opinion: Morning Bits- washingtonpost: Yowser. About the president’s insistence that Obamacare implementation is not a train wreck, as Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.) claimed: “By saying that the health care law was already delivering so many great benefits to 85 percent of the country and they don’t even know it, Obama was just reinforcing Baucus’s point. Beyond that, it’s false for Obama to suggest that implementation of the law next year won’t affect anybody other than those who are currently uninsured. In reality, new taxes kick in next year along with the individual mandate, changes to Medicare, fines on businesses that do not offer health insurance, new insurance regulations that will drive up the cost of premiums, along with a myriad of other provisions with wide-ranging impact.” But great answer, otherwise.
