Almost everyone of the people signing up who DIDN'T have coverage before are going on Medicaid, which is NOT funded for this. Each state pays, so it is going to cost ALL of us billions of $. Worthy of lauding in the SOTU Address? I think not. I also think the media will never mention this expensive truth, so the LIVs will simply cheer.
Agree! I think that was one of the points I was trying to make, but unfortunately didn’t do it very well - - need to not type so quickly and be more precise in my choice of words.
Hopefully, the Pubbie or Tea Party rebuttal will make it clear about what Obammacare has done and is doing to what was the greatest healthcare system on the planet (e.g., most signing up are signing up for Medicaid, we’re paying for it, doctors are quitting, many have lost their healthcare, many are paying more, if you liked your plan you DIDN’T get to keep it, etc., etc.).
