Ten times more Americans than first est will lose employer-based health ins under Obamacare: CBO
The American Thinker ^ | January 28, 2015 | Rick Moran

The latest data on Obamacare analyzed by the Congressional Budget Office shows that 10 million Americans are likely to lose their employer-based insurance by 2021 as companies dump their workers onto the Obamacare exchanges. That's 10 times the number originally projected by the CBO. About 1 of every 16 workers will be affected.

The latest CBO report has not garnered a lot of attention, even though it contains the modestly good news that Obamacare is not costing as much as the CBO thought it would in 2010. That said, another reason the left and the administration may not be touting this news is that the report also says that after a decade of Obamacare, there will still be 31 million people without health insurance - a number that has gone up every year the CBO has issued a report.

And the GOP-e “leadership” in Congress is just fine with that.

Not sure if it’s because of obiecare or not but my retiree medical(basically just a supplement to medicare but with good Rx coverage) will end 6/1/2015. The company has provided an exchange to “allow” me/us retirees to search for a plan of my/our choosing. They will provide money for an HRA yearly(?). The only issue I really have is about my wife’s coverage. Previously, in order for her to be covered by my former employer, I also had to maintain coverage with them. Maybe, since they’ll be providing money for the HRA, it makes me somehow still “enrolled”. Guess I’ll be spending a lot of time on the phone with the retiree service center.

Exactly what was planned in the first place...basically single payer GOVERNMENT controlled health care. AKA "Kill off senior citizens care"

The CBO is about as accurate as Michael Mann.
