The White House on Thursday released final data from the first enrollment period under the Affordable Care Act, which also included a look at each state's relative success or failure in the law's first enrollment period.
Nationally, just more than 8 million people enrolled in health insurance plans through federal and state exchanges established by the law. But the story was different in all 50 states and the District of Columbia some wildly exceeded expectations, and others brutally disappointed.
This chart shows which states did well in signing up people through their exchanges, and which did poorly:

Next we require the newly un-insured to be re-insured.
To re-insure the newly un-insured, they are required to pay extra charges to be re-insured.
The extra charges are required so that the original insured, who became un-insured, and then became re-insured, can pay enough extra so that the original un-insured can be insured for free.

So all it appears to be is a tax. How much of these payments are monies being left in some government budget?
Follow the money, that is what I say.
Well, I think the co-pays for most doctor visits actually do apply from the outset. My previous employer dumped everybody into the exchange, so I’m at least somewhat familiar.
It’s a raw deal, especially for young people, but we do ourselves no favors in opposition by overstating the negatives.

nicely plated
