The ACA depends on Millennials picking up the tab as they
already are for other entitlements….There are all sorts of time bombs
embedded within Obamacare. Will we force
doctors to treat the millions of new Medicaid patients who are signing up for
services that can be only partially reimbursed? How exactly will the IRS
collect penalties from millions of off-the-books youth who choose not to buy
coverage?
Of the newly insured who chose not to buy health insurance in the
past, how many will follow through on their initial signups with steady monthly
premium payments? If many don’t, how will we collect what they owe? Will all
those who lost their coverage have enough money to buy the costlier Obamacare
replacement plan?......
Identity politics rejects ending illegal immigration and
reforming legal immigration…..We are
fast approaching what promises to be the year of “comprehensive immigration
reform.” In the manner of the “Affordable Care Act,” it will not be
comprehensive nor will it reform immigration.
All
sorts of new trends have emerged in the American Southwest to address the fact
that federal immigration law does not really apply to those who arrived here
illegally from Mexico or Latin America. In-state tuition discounts at public
universities are now customarily extended to those without citizenship — in
effect, privileging the foreign national over the U.S.-citizen student from out
of state who helps subsidize the cost. Cities establish sanctuary zones that
protect illegal immigrants from the enforcement of federal immigration laws —
and the taxpayer picks up the additional tab in social services. Imagine what
might happen should a city declare in similar fashion that it was exempt from
enforcing federal gun-control laws…….
