Newspaper confirms Obamacare death panels
From The Wall Street Journal:
Signs of ObamaCare's failings mount daily, including soaring insurance costs, looming provider shortages and inadequate insurance exchanges. Yet the law's most disturbing feature may be the Independent Payment Advisory Board. The IPAB, sometimes called a "death panel," threatens both the Medicare program and the Constitution's separation of powers. At a time when many Americans have been unsettled by abuses at the Internal Revenue Service and Justice Department, the introduction of a powerful and largely unaccountable board into health care merits special scrutiny.Read the full story at the newspaper's website.

Pa. politicians stuff faces at public trough
THORNS to Pennsylvania legislators who continue to fleece beleaguered taxpayers with a practice known as per diems, a constitutionally-questionable system where lawmakers submit unvouchered expenses for meals and lodging on top of their generous salaries. An investigation by reporters Brad Bumsted and Mike Wereschagin of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review found that lawmakers increase their requests for reimbursement dramatically as the state fiscal year comes to a close each June. In other words, lawmakers want to make sure they don't leave any scraps behind as they empty the cupboards before heading on their annual three-month vacations. During a five-day period in 2012 when House leaders spent $64,000 on catered meals, legislators still claimed $105,000 in per diems, according to state records compiled by the Tribune-Review. In 2011, House leaders bought almost $23,000 in food over three days but members claimed nearly $60,000 in per diems, records show. How much catered food can these "public servants" possibly consume? "The bank gets robbed every day with these guys," Joe Poniewaz, 66, a retired Pittsburgh police officer, told the newspaper. If history is any guide, legislators will spend more money on themselves this month — about $400,000 — than any other in 2013, the newspaper reported. Pennsylvania legislators have a base salary of $83,802. That's twice as much as the average taxpayer is bringing home. And that's more than enough to cover their lavish meals without having to stick taxpayers with the bill.Roses to cleanup volunteers and local growers

Obamacare coverage may be unaffordable for low-wage workers
It's called the Affordable Care Act, but President Barack Obama’s health care law may turn out to be unaffordable for many low-wage workers, including employees at big chain restaurants, retail stores and hotels.Obamacare coverage may be unaffordable for low-wage workers
That might seem strange since the law requires medium-sized and large employers to offer "affordable" coverage or face fines.

Americans no longer trust Obama
Op-Ed: Mounting controversies are all about trustYou can trust me, Obama said back in 2008. And — for a while, at least — a good piece of the country did.
But with big promises often come big failures — and the potential for big hits to the one thing that can make or break a presidency: credibility.A series of mounting controversies is exposing both the risks of political promise-making and the limits of national-level governing while undercutting the core assurance Obama made from the outset: that he and his administration would behave differently.
