The More We Learn, The Worse It Gets ObamaCare Watch
"This week, we learned that the Obama administration is orchestrating a $125 million propaganda campaign to sell the recently enacted health-care law to the public.
That effort will be funded by labor unions and other groups from the Democratic political orbit.
It comes on top of the misleading government mailer sent to the nation’s seniors, at the expense of taxpayers, touting the supposed benefits of ObamaCare for the elderly.
On Tuesday, the president himself will join the fray again to make the sales pitch, this time promoting the colossal waste of taxpayer money associated with $250 per senior bribes to be issued this summer and fall."

"A Detroit News survey of Metro Detroit school districts reveals that many have contracts in which teachers pay absolutely nothing for their health care -- in contrast with private sector workers who have faced increasing co-pays and deductibles.
Teachers union officials have responded that teachers have traded pay hikes for benefits.
But Michigan teachers remain relatively highly paid compared to their peers in other states while residents' income has been declining."
