Harvard Can't Tolerate What it Asked For on Obamacare

By Michael Reagan

That loud flapping noise residents of Cambridge, Mass. are now experiencing is the sound of the chickens coming home to roost in Harvard Yard. For years, know it all faculty members from Harvard have journeyed to Washington, D.C. to tell the rest of us how to live.

Most of the time their income and prestige insulated them from the deleterious effects of their l*****t policies — which the rest of us had to endure. That was before the advent of Obamacare.

Harvard faculty helped alumnus Obama craft the Affordable Care Act. They advised. They wrote. They cheered. Now that they are experiencing Obamacare they’ve decided goose sauce doesn’t suit professor Gander after all.

The New York Times reports the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences has “v**ed overwhelmingly to oppose changes that would require them and thousands of other Harvard employees to pay more for health care.”

Who would have thought? With a single v**e Harvard elitists join rednecks, Walmart shoppers, Tea Party members, and Republicans in opposing Obamacare’s meddling in health care.

According to Forbes magazine the bulk of the complaints are regarding changes in faculty health insurance coverage designed to bring Harvard’s plan into compliance with Obamacare so it doesn’t trigger the “Cadillac tax” which is designed to punish and prevent the lavish health plans showered on corporate buccaneers, greedy capitalists and — as it turns out — Harvard faculty members.

Forbes summarizes, “The Cadillac tax is a 40 percent surcharge on health-insurance spending above $27,500 for a family or $10,200 for an individual, and most institutions, including Harvard, are not willing to pay it.”

The biggest changes for the Harvard plan are the new yearly deductible — $250 for an individual and $750 for a family — with a co–pay of $20 for a doctor’s visit. Even with the new deductible the faculty — full professors make nearly $200,000 a year and assistant professors come in at $100,000 — is doing better than the rest of America where the Kaiser Family Foundation reports the average yearly deductible for an individual was $1,200, which is $450 more than the cheapskates at Harvard now pay.

The Times quoted Prof. Mary D. Lewis, a leader of the whiners, who contends the “benefit changes were tantamount to a pay cut. ‘Moreover,’ she said, ‘this pay cut will be timed to come at precisely the moment when you are sick, stressed or facing the challenges of being a new parent.’”

Gee Mary, tell that to the thousands of workers that had their hours cut so they wouldn’t cross the 30 hour per week threshold that invokes Obamacare.

This controversy in the faculty lounge demonstrates once again the hypocrisy of the Left:

Fighting ine******y is all well and good for the rest of the nation, but Harvard had no idea eventually the poultry would come home.

LOVE IT!!!!!!! A great way to start a day! There are few things more satisfying than for chickens to come home to nest in self-perceived elitists' nests.

I've often wondered what it takes to make certain people THINK they are special and above the fray. It is truly fun to goose them from time to time. :lol: :lol:

I think it was more by crook in the way of threats, either on the lives of those v****g or on their loved ones. I have no proof, but has anyone heard anything out of Michele Bachmann lately. She used to be a huge thorn in the side to libs. But not since the monkey took office. Think the hierarchy of muzzies in the WH may have had their fingers in that pie? Anybody remember what Oliver North said about them? Anyone remember the precautions and expense he went to to keep his family safe? Just saying!

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

You mean once all the attacking of her "nonprofit business enterprise" and all her supposed religious preferences etc?? Not a bit..They attacked her pretty good and she bowed out..Was it skeltons in her closet as they alluded or just more character assignation??? I don't know..She did seem to go off the deep end after it all though~~~

No, I do not remember what Oliver North said, would you tell me please??

I can't find the quote from Oliver North but I can find one from Marco Polo who said, "The militant muslim is the person who beheads the infidel, while the moderate muslim holds the feet of the victim." Oliver North's comment expressed the determination and hatred behind the muslims that made them so dangerous. North also spent $16,000 on a fence surrounding his residence to keep his family more safe from them; all due to their vengeful nature and definite follow through. The muzzie doesn't care how long it takes to get even (or justice in his mind): he will do it! That is why it is so important for us to know the enemy and what stops them - and they are easily stopped with pigs - anything pig! Blood, fat, meat, grease, bacon, etc.
