Firms are actually compling with ObamaCARE. But the regime is still suing companies like Honeywell. Why is the Obama regime going after companies that are ectually complying with ObamaCARE? Because parts of it, such as the ‘wellness’ program actually violate the Americans with Disabilities Act. Basically, you are damned if you do, damned if you don’t. The ObamaCARE bill was written in such a way that not only did no-one even read it, but it violates other parts of American law, if you actually comply with it.

| Obama now suing CEOs over Obamacare |

The federal government has grown so gargantuan, all-encompassing, and self-contradictory that one must break the law in order to obey it. The CEOs of Honeywell International, Inc. and two smaller companies are learning this lesson the hard way.
These firms are complying with Obamacare, which lets them offer wellness programs to their employees. These activities help workers lose weight, quit smoking, receive regular checkups, and otherwise become healthier. As an incentive, Obamacare offers participating employees as much as a 50 percent reduction in out-of-pocket medical expenses. Workers who avoid such programs, however, could face resulting surcharges of up to $4,000.
The comically titled “Affordable Care Act” requires that employees in these programs undergo medical tests to qualify for lower premiums. Unfortunately, such exams violate the Americans with Disabilities Act. In short, the ADA is allergic to the ACA.
