On Tuesday, the White House announced that it would delay implementing PPACA’s requirement that large employers provide their employees with health insurance.
Democrats portrayed this decision as evidence of legislations’s flexibility, arguing it showed the Administration’s commitment to work with the private sector to improve the regulations. Republicans rejected this framing, calling the maneuver a “a cynical political ploy to delay the coming train wreck associated with Obamacare until after the 2014 elections.”
The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
