Your link is 2-1/2 years old, from when he was fired by the Mass. Healthcare Board.

Here's the new story - he was just fired as a consultant to the State of Vermont for fraudulent billing!

He's a fucking crook who tries to steal from taxpayers!

http://dailycaller.com/2017/08/20/ch...investigation/


The older Vox story details just how crooked he is... he claimed his assistant worked 100 billable hours a week for 10 consecutive weeks!

Who looks "stupid" now?


Gruber twice billed Vermont for 500 hours worked by his research assistant, once for October and once for November. The state auditor found two things implausible about this: first, that the research assistant worked the exact same number of hours each month and second, that he worked so much.

"If Dr. Gruber had a team of programmers, the total hours billed might appear reasonable (ignoring the round numbers for the moment)," the auditor's report says. "But we now know that Dr. Gruber used only one RA during this period, so it seems unlikely that the RA could have worked 1,000 hours in 10 weeks (the total from the first two invoices). To do so, the RA would have worked exclusively on this project for more than 14 hours per day."

By the way, anyone dumb enough to think single-payer is a good idea should look at what happened when Vermont tried it.

Vermont is Bernie Sanders' home state, but he's too much of an ideological fool to learn from his own state's mistakes!

If you read the whole link the Vermont issue is reported. He billed for 500hrs for October and then in November. One guy was doing the work. He would have to work 14hr days to accomplish that. The auditor general thought the exact 500hr bill for two separate months was suspicious.

Had this info been available, its too bad that he wasn't disqualified as a witness in the obamacare decision 2 years ago that used the chevron doctrine.

Gruber is still laughing at the Liberals, though!

They embrace frauds .... HillariousNoMore ... their recent banner bearer.
