Jon Gruber will probably spend the rest of his life hiding from recording devices. The Obamacare architect appears in a 2013 video that surfaced yesterday saying the law has benefited politically from a lack of transparency and says it never would have passed if the public had understood that it would require healthy people to essentially subsidize sick people. Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage and basically call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really critical to getting the thing to pass. I wish we could make it all transparent but Id rather have this law than not, he says.
