The rollout might have worked better if - just maybe - the government had actually sent out a mailing explaining the law and telling people what they need to do. I have gotten zip - nada - from the government. Obama apparently thought all his butt-boys in the media would do the work for him. And what about the millions of Americans - many of them seniors - who still aren’t on-line? They are completely in the dark.

Will be interesting.
Will Democrat voters continue to “hope” Obamacare is OK.
Or will they realize that bad smell really is a dog turd.

The number of those seeking enrollment assistance from the county has been down, averaging about 11 people per day as of Tuesday. LOL !!!!!

And what about the millions of Americans - many of them seniors - who still arent on-line? They are completely in the dark. They aren't in the dark. They just need to pick up a phone and call 1-800-F1*CKYO (Sorry, I had to redact a character. This is a family site).

They won’t think about Obamacare. The media has changed I with the strode of a key.
It’s ACA. Whole different deal. It’s the republican version. THe media and their audience can pin it on republicans.
ACA.
Are people just on drugs? Is that it?

Hope Otto and many others are being paid to accomplish nothing. Sounds like every other government program.

Yes. According to the dims these folks are incapable of getting an ID to vote. How are they ever going to supply the paperwork for Obamcare? What if they don’t have a bank account?
To: Cyber Liberty
It’s 1-800-FUCKYO + another digit.
No need to redact the truth. It’s an official Government created phone number that just happens to spell out what they think of the little people.
It will take a while for the Useful Idiots to figure out what they Voted for. I think the Phone Number is their first hint.

You don't have to wonder how many people managed to get into the system, saw the outrageous premiums and sky-high deductibles, and said, “I'm outta here!”

We had a meeting yesterday where I work about our insurance, and luckily our insurer is keeping costs low — only about a $9 a month increase after Obamacare takes effect. We were all pretty relieved. HOWEVER, the presenter’s explanation of coverage through our state’s “exchange” was astonishing. Pity the poor people who have to pay THOSE premiums! And the deductibles are RIDICULOUS!

I just heard another theory about ACA, that it was intentionally designed not to work until after the mid-terms.Sounds plausible when you consider who we have as POTUS.

FWIW, since Wisconsin refused to set up state-run exchanges, as the ACA urged states to do, and it therefore defaulted to the federal exchanges, Wisconsinites cant really complain.
Haha, Well, sure they can.

Interesting theory. It's working "okay" in those states with state exchanges ("okay" insofar as enrollments.)
But in states who refused to set up exchanges ("Red" states), who default to the useless federal exchanges, it sucks. Which, to your idea, could "work" in the sense that, "Hey, your GOP governor/government refused to give you your own state-run exchanges, vote for me!" (the DUMMiecrat).
Not a crazy thought.

We’ve had presidents lie to the American people. Never has one lied where it will hurt like hell when the full impact of his lies start hitting home.
Bill Clinton’s retroactive taxes come close.

Nah, it’s an extension of Queen Stretchyface’s comment: You have to apply for the insurance to see what’s in it.
I mean, how dare us peasants ask such questions of the King.
