100 Lose Their Insurance Per ObamaCare Signup

Some numbers have come been released over the number of people who have signed up for ObamaCare through the federal website and it isn't pretty. It appears that less than 50,000 people have signed up, which is only ten percent of what big government liberals wanted and need. If millions of young people don't sign up for health insurance they don't need, then the entire ponzi scheme falls apart. However, the Obama administration's tenuous relationship with the truth continues as the 50,000 number cited isn't actually correct. It appears that the government is counting every person who had an insurance plan in their shopping cart, even if they decided not to make any purchase. Well, it's always the case in government that if the facts don't support your position, then just make up new facts.

If you compare the inflated number of ObamaCare signups to those who have had their insurance cancelled, you can see that 100 people lose their health insurance for every single person who signed up for ObamaCare. So far, roughly five million people have learned that their individual health insurance has been cancelled and that number is going to continue to climb as time goes on. Looking at these numbers, a sane and rational person would be appalled and realize that this program is a colossal failure and actually hurts people. (Which is what most conservatives have been saying all along while the media lapped up and regurgitated all of Obama's lies about his so-called Affordable Care Act.) Obama and other progressive liberals have publicly said that they're upset over the numbers and want to help those people who have been hurt, but their reaction is a sham. Secretly, they're delighted as the program is doing exactly what they wanted it to do: destroy private insurance in America and force everybody onto government-sponsored insurance. This has been the plan all along, which is clearly evident by the federal government tweaking the guidelines to ensure that most insurance plans wouldn't be grandfathered in.

What goes on from here? First, the media will still cover the story as it's just too big to ignore, but they'll do their best to massage it in favor of Obama. They'll push the narrative that his lies were just errors in communication and he's truly angry over the situation. (The only thing he's angry about is that everyday people are actually defying him.) Far-left websites like the Daily Kook will also put their spin on it, saying that the numbers are actually higher, and if they're not, then it's still worth it as some unfortunate souls who didn't have insurance before are now getting it. (Ends justify means!) Who cares if the entire system collapses because of ObamaCare? To the progressive liberal, it doesn't matter because in the end, people were helped. It's about the children...or the poor...or the elderly....wait, what? The elderly cost a lot more medical dollars than they're currently putting it? Well then, grandma better learn to live with that bad hip or erratic heartbeat.

It's heartbreaking to read the stories of people who are losing much-needed insurance over ObamaCare and they just don't know what to do. For a lot of cancer patients, ObamaCare is a death sentence as they're losing access to the very doctors that are keeping them alive. The only people I don't feel bad for are the Obama supporters who elected him and promoted his agenda and are now getting hit with much higher premiums. One quote from an Obama supporter sums up the liberal mindset perfectly. They said (and I'm paraphrasing), "I still think universal health insurance is a great thing and I want uninsured people to get insured, but I didn't think I would be the one paying for it." Ah, consequences and sweet irony!

If they do, a year from now when the big business exemption expires they will be right back in the same boat.

Fewer Americans have health insurance since the Obama inauguration.

Fewer have jobs.

Fewer blacks have jobs.

Poverty is at the highest that ever been recorded.

Our rates didn’t go up much, but the deductible skyrocketed to keep it that way.
My father’s health insurance went up 500 per month, from 300 to 800 per month. Single man, though over 50.
