My company has a good health care plan for retirees. You get to keep everything you had as an employee -- but it will cost you more money than as an employee. So, for years I've saved up, intending to take advantage of this.

I was notified this week that the company will likely kill that retiree health plan due to the costs of Obamacare. The Company simply can't afford to put money towards my health care, as well as take on the extra burden of paying for the health care of others that don't work for the Company, as Obama is mandating. Something has to give -- and since I can't penalize my Company for dropping me, but Obama's IRS agents can penalize the Company for not paying for non-employees, then I'm the one that's going to be dropped.

Welcome to Socialism, Obama-style.
