[lbo-talk] Good point from National Review

[Max Sawicky]

This whole spiel never made any sense.  And who the fuck is Deroy
Murdock, if not some political hack.  The fear apparently is, you are
sitting there with employer provided insurance, some alternative shows
up (public option, different plan becomes available, either of which
are cheaper and crappier), and you get switched to something worse.

The terms of your implicit deal with the boss is you get some $$$ and
some benefits.  Absent some kind of explicit, legally-binding
contract, there is no more reason under ObamaCare to arbitrarily
reduce your compensation than before.  If bosses want some fig leaf
they can call health insurance and cram it down their workers'
throats, they can do it now.

As things stand, the boss can always drop one plan for something
cheaper, and worse, if his employees let him get away with it.  What
is different?
