Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Mathews Burwell insisted Monday that Obamacare is clearly working, trying to move past the rocky rollout of President Obama's signature health law by insisting that her agency was not concerned with fighting last year's battles.
Burwell in a speech at George Washington University said that the verdict was in on Obama's signature domestic initiative.
The Affordable Care Act is clearly working, the HHS chief said. Healthcare is more affordable for families, businesses and for our economy as [a] whole. Coverage and services are more widely available to more people. Doctors and hospitals are delivering better care to their patients.

Works great for those who have nothing but the clothes on their back, but the rest like my wife saw a 300% increase in premiums for lousy coverage.

She didn’t say who it was working for.
See how stupid you are? :)
Now shut your bigoted face and go pay your taxes - your hard working government is broke. :)

We haven't hit the first round of rate increases, the next round of mandates, or the first round of tax returns subject to the tax credits and penalties. We are hitting a large round of reckoning with regards to illegals in CA.
..... And they are already claiming victory.

With HHS at a $1,000,000,000,000 per year budget to play with, I would say, yes, Obamacare is working great... for HHS

My cousin has a job that pays $12-$14 an hour.
His insurance has covered things in the past, with just "minimal" deductibles.
He just had a colonoscopy. His prior insurance wasn't good enough, so his new and APPROVED insurance has a $6,000 deductible.
So much for affordable care.

Sounds like something Slow Joe Biden would say but then Slow Joe has never been accused of being on the cutting edge of intellectual prowess.

The LIBs have many soul-less, moral-free, integrity-free ghouls in their employ. It should surprise no one that they all are chronic liars. They sleep well...as do most psychopaths.

She's right. The object was to destroy the world's greatest Healthcare system and, by God, they are damn well close to pulling it off.

She can look at herself in the mirror everyday and not be repulsed because she is a leftist, Marxist, Progressive Democrat and screwing the middle class is what gives them orgasms.

Comrades! Achtung, Homeland comrades! As you have seen the Affordable Health Care & Patient Privacy Act is affordable! But wait until you see the privacy aspects.
Comrade Zakeet, we can help you with that third nipple. 5 years, 4,000 new dollars, not too much pain. Heil Comrade Obama! Attention! Straighten up, all of you!
