Can
President Obama and Health Insurers Put Toothpaste Back into the Tube?
“You
can’t put toothpaste back into the tube” is the expression of many health care
experts.
Louise
Radnosky, “Obama’s Health Insurance Move, “ Washington
Wire, November 13, 2013
The
president’s move to placate millions of Americans rattled health insurers, who
said they were unsure how to revive cancelled policies in short order..,Mr. Obama’s move to allow
cancelled polices to be reinstated may
pose a threat to the law.

Quell Protest, Obama Alters Requirement, ” Wall
Street Journal, November 15, 2013
Once
you pass a law, can you put toothpaste back into the tube?
What
would be required in terms of a Democratic legislative lube?
Can
you put the genie back into the proverbial bottle?
Even
if you push hard on the pedal and go full throttle?
Can
put the horse back into the barn?
Without
doing the health law harm?
To
skirt a law administratively,
Obama
must do it creatively.
How to do it is definitely not a given,
Even
for the ObamaCare-driven.
Tweet: Reversing
health plan cancellations may be beyond Obama’s power, once the toothpaste is
out of the tube and the law is out in the open.
