The United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers is reportedly the first union to officially call for repeal of the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare. The health care law is prompting some serious buyer’s remorse in Big Labor, which worked hard on behalf of the administration to pass it:
The union’s statement can be found here. The full text is below:
United Union of Roofers, Waterproofers and Allied Workers International President Kinsey M. Robinson issued the following statement today calling for a repeal or complete reform of President Obama’s Affordable Care Act (ACA):
“Our Union and its members have supported President Obama and his Administration for both of his terms in office.
To the roofers; Remember when we Republicans, Libertarians, and other independents were shouting from the rooftops a resounding "NO" to Obamacare because we had all read the bill and were quoting line and page WHY it was a bad bill? Remember when you were calling us racist Obamahaters? Remember when your fearless cheerleader said, "We have to pass the bill to see what is in it"? And remember you all ran up and immediately voted FOR it right after hearing that line of ignorance? We all tried, but you are the ones who failed. You failed yourselves, and your fellow Countrymen. Now, eat that.
Obamacare is not about health care. Its about fines, penalties and additional taxes. How can you improve a system that treats someone with no health insurance and then they don't have to pay. Only our government would think they can improve that. They want Obamacare to be so confusing that finally everybody just says let the government take over. And then they have their single payor system. God help us.
Obamacare is the largest bailout (of the insurance industry) we've seen to date. It make AIG look like pocketchange. They need to suck it up, live with it and hopefully learn from their ignorance.
Then they should be closed down for supporting obamacare in the first place.
