http://www.wnd.com/2013/10/democrat-ski-resorts-need-obamacare-waivers/A multimillionaire member of Congress is seeking an exemption or waiver from Obamacare for citizens of his upscale district — known for its pricy ski resorts — because he thinks they’re being forced to pay too much for health insurance.
In a letter to Colorado Insurance Commissioner Marguerite Salazar, Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., complains that the pricing for health coverage for residents of Summit County will be a minimum of $427.80 a month, while the same coverage in Boulder is $339.18 and in Denver $296.41.
“These high rates make it much more likely that Coloradans living in these areas will choose to forgo coverage entirely, choosing to pay the federal penalty rather than purchase health insurance,” the congressman, whose worth is estimated by Roll Call at about $66 million, said.
He bought into it. Demanded that everyone in the state be part of it except him and his. What an asshole!
