SEIU Drops 30,000 Peoples Health Insurance For Children?

I am confused here, I thought SEIU was for Obamacare? Did they not know they would need drop 30,000 peoples children because of the bill?

is dropping coverage for the children of more than 30,000 low-wage home attendants, union officials said. The union blamed financial problems it said were caused by the state?s health department and new national health-insurance requirements.

Quote:

The fund informed its members late last month that their dependents will no longer be covered as of Jan. 1, 2011. Currently about 6,000 children are covered by the benefit fund, some until age 23.

Quote:

?In addition, new federal health-care reform legislation requires plans with dependent coverage to expand that coverage up to age 26,? Behroozi wrote in a letter to members Oct. 22. ?Our limited resources are already stretched as far as possible, and meeting this new requirement would be financially impossible.?

Behroozi estimated that the fund faced a $15 million shortfall in 2011 and more in the following years for the coverage of workers? children.

If you drop it, they'll likely never do it again. If you leave it, you have infinite opportunities to fix it.

The problem was created by obstructionist fuckwits that would not let the public option pass. You know, the same option that every other developed nation has.

The world we live in is controlled by by very wealthy people who don't give a flying fuck about you or anyone you know. you only exist to hand them your money.

You want healthcare that doesn't have the ability to ruin you financially? TOUGH SHIT. How you loving that "free market" now?

Also, I read it for facts and found nothing but a bunch of hyperbole. Let me know when a non Rupert Murdoch publication (respectable) reports on it.

Hows those nations doing? The uk is cutting 40% of their government. Should we do the same?

How many reps vote for the bill and in what way did they stop the public option?

Joe Liberman was 1000% against the public option as was several other Democrat Senators who have big insurance companies in their states..
