Your ♡bamaCare!!! Fail of the Day [Brunch Edition]

Another day, another fail, another union turns against ♡bamaCare!!!:

Culinary Workers Union Local 226 is pushing about a dozen of its employers to contribute more money to its health insurance fund to cover rising Obamacare costs. Currently, employers pay 100% of the premiums.

Union workers picketed outside the Stratosphere over the weekend, ahead of a March 20 vote that would give the union the right to call a strike.

At issue are Obamacare fees and mandates that have greatly increased the health insurance fund’s expenses in recent years. What’s angering the local, along with many unions nationwide, is that the fund doesn’t qualify for federal subsidies to cover low-income workers that for-profit insurers do. The union fund wants these subsidies to help offset the added costs.

Those subsidies, which go directly to insurers, help lower-income Americans purchase insurance on the individual market through state and federal exchanges. But since union plans are considered employer-sponsored plans, there is no federal money to subsidize its members.

You’d think Professor Wiggleroom would wave his magic waiver wand, but as I said yesterday, private sector unions no longer hold enough clout to wag the Democrat dog.
