What the heck is wrong with the Obama admin?? Workplace wellness programs are already in effect in other countries in various forms (though, I think, without penalties). Preventative care is one of the best ways to keep workers/employees healthy, which helps companies save money on sick days, etc., and is just a good idea for the well-being of society. He’s taking a very serious risk to his already legally fragile Obamacare.

Hi Tanya, long time no see! Regarding this post, I believe the issue here is the employer-imposed penalties on workers.
