Why Would Anyone Want A Waiver?

We've been told for a couple of years that ObamaCare is a wonderful thing. Given that, why would anyone want, much less need, a waiver to get out of it?! Particularly unions that were campaigning for Obama and ObamaCare from the beginning?

So much for the rule of law.
