The Obama administration now says a special system of exchanges designed to make it easier for small businesses to provide insurance will be delayed an entire year -- to 2015.
"Lots of small businesses struggle with providing insurance for their workers so this was supposed to facilitate it and make it easier for small business to do this," said Jim Capretta of the Ethics and Public Policy Center. "It was a huge portion of the sale job. When they passed the law in 2010 there were many senators and members of Congress who were saying 'I am doing this because it's going to help small businesses.'"
The exchanges were designed to give workers a range of choices supported by dollars from their employers. But now they will have only one choice until 2015, which could mean they can't shop for insurance that includes their current providers. Capretta said the administration is "way" behind schedule.

Chief Justice Roberts, in upholding Obamacare last summer, declared that "OBAMACARE IS A TAX", and is therefore constitutional.
But apparently, Roberts never got the memo in law school that ALL TAX LEGISLATION MUST ORIGINATE IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, according to the Origination Clause of the U.S. Constitution.
Since Obamacare originated in the Senate, NOT in the House, it is therefore UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Roberts and the other four Justices who upheld Obamacare have, as Ricky Ricardo used to tell Lucy, "got a lot of 'splaining to do."
Or, to quote another famous bard from years gone by, it looks like Roberts & Company have been "hoisted by their own petard."
