WH: “Majority of People” With Group Health Plans Will Lose Their Insurance by End of December
Pundit Press ^ | 11/19/13 | Aurelius

Posted on 11/19/2013 2:27:00 PM PST by therightliveswithus

...“We’re talking about five percent of the population,” President Obama said to Chuck Todd in a rambling sentence during an interview with NBC this month. “Even though it only effects a small amount of the population, you know, it means a lot to them when they get this letter cancelled [sic] and, you know, I am deeply concerned about it and I’ve assigned my team to see what can we do to close some of the holes and gaps in the law, because my intention is to lift up and make sure the insurance that people buy is effective, that it’s actually going to deliver what they think they’re purchasing, ’cause what we know is, before the law was passed, a lot of these plans, people thought they had insurance coverage and then they’d find out that they had huge, out-of-pocket expenses, or women were being charged more than men.”

Well, the President has been called out on his lies by an unexpected source: HHS and the Justice Department. The memo, which was created by the Justice Department in a lawsuit that concerned HHS, is so extremely damning that it specifically states that most people will lose their insurance if they have a group health plan:

The [Affordable Care Act's] grandfathering provision’s incremental transition does not undermine the government’s interests in a significant way. Even under the grandfathering provision, it is projected that more group health plans will transition to the requirements under the regulations as time goes on. Defendants have estimated that a majority of group health plans will have lost their grandfather status by the end of 2013.

“women were being charged more than men.”

yes, because the ceos of insurance companies are greedy white males who sit behind their shiny mahogany desks and say lets cheat women and make more money.

As with WJBC, he lies "because he can."

Like a child never held to account, he's learned lying (in the context of news media that fawn over him adoringly and a Congress happy to see themselves get better payouts) gets him a better deal than not lying.

The 1% thing worked so well during the class warfare shtick that they figured they could to 5% for convenience, and the majority (including Romney’s 47%) would still be largely intact, and possibly increased. 5% is a pretty big number, though, and it didn’t play as planned.

So can we conclude that only 5 percent are employed and, therefore, our unemployment rate is 95 percent?

For sure, but he may have some trouble selling it, now that everyone knows what a liar he is.

His biggest problem will be squaring this circle: If some government involvement led to chaos, what will total government control lead to?

It should be noted that next year the large self insured groups will also be losing their coverages..........

And who exactly do these large self insured groups represent? The entire UAW controlled auto industry......

Any attempt by the GOP to delay the Democrat passed Obamacare will destroy them and allow the mid term Senate democrats to escape the wrath that will surely come their way in 2015, AFTER they may be re-elected........

Well t’s true that obamramadindong is deeply concerned, at least he is deeply concerned that the American public has found out about the depth of his deception and inability to make even one good coherent decision.
