Even the low-information citizen doesn’t want the government having all his personal information to share with any government agency that wants it. They aren’t that stupid.

I don’t see the problem. Just print up a couple trillion extra Bernake bucks to keep this sinking albatross afloat.

And just wait till they start issuing orders to the doctors to match client with the care required....and prescriptions....don't forget all those complex prescription orders.

I see not just amputations on the wrong limb....but on the wrong patient.

40+ years ago, I was a "Trainer" for several major corporations. These firms paid 90% of their employees' healthcare premiums. Despite that fact, and my best efforts to educate new employees, LESS THAN HALF of new employees bothered to sign up for healthcare coverage!

Despite the "I KNOW BEST" mindset of liberals..., human nature will never change! Grand schemes based upon an assumption that people will "Do what is good for them" will never succeed!!

Thus, TOTALATARIANISM becomes the preferred course to ensure that the "People" act in the desired manner!

people didn’t have health insurance before because they wanted to spend their money on other things

my sister spent hers on all kinds of trendy dipshit stuff and her kids grew up without medical care or medical insurance.

at this point, life has become such a living hell, no one gives a darn about surviving and view death as a welcome release from torture.

Most Uninsured Americans Aren’t Flocking to (wealth) Exchanges

And most probably won't until the last minute, something pointed out in the article.

Don't get me wrong, I expect Obamacare to fail, but the initially low enrollment rates aren't necessarily a sign of it.

Obama, the IRS, and Homeland have their boot ready to grind into the faces of those who resist. Make no bones about it - they know what’s coming next ...

So if the exchanges do not “enroll enough young, healthy people, insurers will have to raise everyone’s premiums,”

So even liberals understand that for this to work, young people who don't have jobs need to spend money they don't have for health insurance they don't need so that our society can insure the uninsurable (pre-existing conditions).

Because nobody in the private sector ever figured out how to insure people with pre-existing conditions and make money. If that were possible, somebody would have done it and cornered the health insurance market.

the marketplaces need a broad, healthy risk pool to keep staggering rate increases from occurring.

aren't the initial Obamacare rates already there?

If your combined family income is $95,000 you and yours are not eligible for any of the obamacare subsidies.

This reminds me of how Jews in the Nazi concentration camps worked with the German camp guards to herd their fellow Jews into the gas chambers and when those same ‘helpers’ were used up they were sent to the chambers themselves.

The private insurers early on bought into the Obamacare scam and when Obama is done with having them ‘help’ they too will be discarded and destroyed in favor of Single Payer.

Private Insurance Sector May Take On Larger Obamacare Role
Sunday, November 10, 2013 09:52 AM

By: Elliot Jager

Facing pressure from the public and Washington lawmakers, the Obama administration may be laying the groundwork for using the insurance industry to directly sign up large numbers of uninsured Americans, The Washington Post reported.

Insurers have been working behind-the-scenes on contingency plans should they be asked to step-in and take a larger role, The Post reported.

The White House is also turning to private insurers for technical help to fix the HealthCare.gov site. Starting this week industry computer specialists will work directly with those writing code for HealthCare.gov.

“To function as intended, the marketplaces need a broad, healthy risk pool to keep staggering rate increases from occurring. “

Uh, in case they haven’t heard yet, staggering rate increases (and staggering out-of-pocket increases) have ALREADY occurred BEFORE anyone at all has signed up! In fact, it looks like those staggering increases will keep ANYONE from signing up except the lucky few who will be subsidized to get FREE health care because they don’t work or pay taxes. For the rest of us? Nothing.

I’m surprised that their current sales pitch to young, healthy working Americans is failing. “We need you to subsidize your older, sicker, richer neighbors!” How is that not a winning slogan?
