FoIB Holly R tips us to this shocker from The Hill:
"More than 3 million young adults have been able to stay on their parents' insurance plans because of [ObamneyCare©]."
One of the provisions allows "adult children" (see also: "jumbo shrimp") to stay on their parents' health insurance plan until they're 27 (29 in Ohio). This is also a case of "bootstrapping:" ObamneyCare© did away with individual policies for actual children in favor of those who can actually fend for themselves.
Theoretically, anyway.
It's a fairly innocuous piece of thistrain wreck initiative, but it's also expensive for those who choose to take advantage of it: in most cases, the cost of the rider is far greater than an individual policy would be (particularly if the group plan is the typical co-pay arrangement).
But of course we can't expect The Hill to report on that.
