That is a great article and should be an OP. I have written here a few times about the Ensign amendment but it gets little attention. Not only is this a backdoor way to charge those with preexisting conditions more, it is a scary hit to privacy rights allowing your employer the right to your private health information. I don't even like to think about the abuses this new right of your employer will foster.

Anyone who thinks an amendment made possible by Bush's last minute executive order to strike down more of our privacy rights is a good idea must love the Patriot Act.
