A subject that I thought would have been made a key element in the work up to the healthcare bill seems to have remained below the media radar: namely pension healthcare promises that burden states, counties, cities, myriad governmental agencies, unions both governmental types as well as private industry (not an issue for federal obligations since the feds will simply print more money to resolve the problem, which of course will devalue the dollars in our pockets).

It would appear that many of the budgetary problems of these governments will just vanish when Obamacare takes hold and the always amiable taxpayer will take on the load. The generosity of unions to the Obama campaign appears to have been a good investment.
