Sometimes an assumption of power is more than arrogance and repression, sometimes it is a test. ObamaCare administrators continue to miss deadlines set by the health care law — 41 of 82 of them, according to Forbes' Avik Roy. According to the law firm Davis Polk, the administration as of July had missed 62% of the deadlines in Dodd-Frank.
Two questions about the Affordable Care Act:
1. Will the law be seen as a test of the government's ability to take on large projects? If managing of 16% of the economy proves to be too much to do efficiently, will that change the minds of those who feel this type of thing is the government's work? And, if successful, will it stimulate more such projects?
2. Since the Act is having logistical problems, it is likely that its implementation will be delayed into the nest several years. Is it in Obama's interest to have Hillary come in and fix it or would that reflect badly on him? Might he oppose her nomination as a result? (He has not made his enormously successful social media programs available to the DNC yet.)
