Got it.
"For years, Harvard’s experts on health economics and policy have advised presidents and Congress on how to provide health benefits to the nation at a reasonable cost. But those remedies will now be applied to the Harvard faculty, and the professors are in an uproar.
"For years, Harvard’s experts on health economics and policy have advised presidents and Congress on how to provide health benefits to the nation at a reasonable cost. But those remedies will now be applied to the Harvard faculty, and the professors are in an uproar.
Members
of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the heart of the 378-year-old
university, voted overwhelmingly in November to oppose changes that
would require them and thousands of other Harvard employees to pay more
for health care. The university says the increases are in part a result
of the Obama administration’s Affordable Care Act, which many Harvard
professors championed.
The
faculty vote came too late to stop the cost increases from taking
effect this month, and the anger on campus remains focused on questions
that are agitating many workplaces: How should the burden of health
costs be shared by employers and employees? If employees have to bear
more of the cost, will they skimp on medically necessary care, curtail
the use of less valuable services, or both?"
But in her view, there are drawbacks to the Harvard plan and others like
it that require consumers to pay a share of health care costs at the
time of service. “Consumer cost-sharing is a blunt instrument,”
Professor Rosenthal said. “It will save money, but we have strong
evidence that when faced with high out-of-pocket costs, consumers make
choices that do not appear to be in their best interests in terms of
health.”
"Richard F. Thomas...called the changes "deplorable, deeply
regressive, a sign of the corporatization of the university."
So. A law passed exclusively by the government, uniquely by one party without popular consent is the fault of...corporations?
My do I loathe progressives. Not because they're progressives but because they're such whiny, lying sacks of irrational shits.
This is why academics must never know where the guns are or form any type of policy around them.
The salty tears. Delicious.

Unfortunately for Harvard profs, karma is a pre-existing
condition not covered by Obamacare."
