Heritage.org posted an article this morning about the current state of the implementation of Obamacare. Obamacare is only partially implemented right now, next year more of the program begins to take effect. However, already there are some problems with Obamacare that Congressmen on both sides of the aisle are trying to address. The Community Living Assistance Services and Supports (CLASS) Act, which provided long-term care assistance has already been scrapped because it was not financially possible.

The latest problem Obamacare has encountered is the medical device tax, which took effect January 1 of this year.

The article reports:

A group of 18 Senators, including such outspoken Democrats as Al Franken (MN), John Kerry (MA), Charles Schumer (NY), and Debbie Stabenow (MI), asked Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) to delay the tax, which falls on every item used in medical treatments, from stents to syringes, IV tubes, and prosthetics.

…Even Democratic governors are unsure about this law. Many governors are weighing the costs of setting up a state health exchange and expanding their already troubled Medicaid programs. The nation’s governors, like the U.S. Congress, are figuring out that Obamacare is an unworkable monstrosity.

Now that we have passed the bill, we are beginning to find out what was in it.
