A new statistic has been released today. An astounding 20% of new Obamacare waivers have gone to unions and businesses in Nancy Pelisi's congressional district. it seems her constituents now know what is in the bill and they don't like it. The fact that they have so many waivers approved points to cronyism, if not outright corruption.

Of the 204 new Obamacare waivers President Barack Obama's administration approved in April, 38 are for fancy eateries, hip nightclubs and decadent hotels in House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's Northern California district.
That's in addition to the 27 new waivers for health care or drug companies and the 31 new union waivers Obama's Department of Health and Human Services approved.
Pelosi's district secured almost 20 percent of the latest issuance of waivers nationwide, and the companies that won them didn't have much in common with companies throughout the rest of the country that have received Obamacare waivers.
