#obamacare targets AmeriCorps. …Wait, what?

I am confused.

The Obama administration has told Vista volunteers and other AmeriCorps workers that their government-provided health coverage does not measure up to the standards of the new health care law, and that they may be subject to financial penalties unless they obtain insurance elsewhere.

The notice has surprised and worried workers in AmeriCorps, the federal community service program that is often described as a domestic version of the Peace Corps.

It’s almost as if the Obama administration is run by blithering nincompoops who are almost as dangerous to the well-being of their political allies and fellow-travelers as they are to their political opponents.  But that’s just crazytalk, right?

Right?

  1. This should thin the leftist volunteer organizations on the ground a bit for the next election. But I think Gator is right I sense another waiver coming.

  2. Well, this isn’t to say that the Obama administration isn’t run by blithering idiots, but I’m not sure this is evidence of that. This isn’t a bug in the system, it is the system, as someone I read fairly often likes to say.
