THE NARRATIVE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS


Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen. -George Orwell

92.3% OF FED WORKERS DON'T WANT OBAMACARE



Shocker: New Survey Finds Nearly Every Federal Employee Rejects ObamaCare
A new survey of 2,500 federal employees and retirees found that 92.3 percent believe federal workers should keep their current health insurance and not be forced into ObamaCare.  Only 2.9 percent say they should become part of the new health insurance exchanges.
I suspect a similar percentage of private sector employees would also like to keep their coverage, but most won't get that option.  What I'd like to know is how many of those federal employees so eager to avoid ObamaCare themselves supported forcing everyone else in it.
There's more.  The survey, conducted by FedSmith.com, "an information portal for sources of information impacting the federal community and those interested in the Federal Government's activities," found that 96.1 percent think federal retirees should be able to stay with their retirement health insurance.  Only 3.9 percent think they should get "Medicare in lieu of their current option."
To put it simply: Federal employees and retirees almost unanimously prefer to stay in their generous taxpayer-funded health insurance program, known as the Federal Employees Health Benefit Plan (FEHBP), rather than being dumped into liberalism's two greatest monuments to government-run health insurance, ObamaCare and Medicare.
Speaks volumes, doesn't it?
