The main reason is 10 million or so workers currently uncovered – often voluntary. The trouble is that in order to sweep in the 10 million, they passed a 2900 page monstrosity that is causing the other 150 million workers (and their employers) enormous confusion, uncertainty, and grief. In other words, Obama stepped in DOO-DOO.
