4.2 mil.. Does that equal the number who have already lost their insurance beecause of obamadeathcare?
Of the 4.2 mil. how many are medicaid? How many are heavily subsidized?

The Left is spinning this as a stunning victory...”MILLIONS of people” have been enrolled! Whoopee!!! /s
To: jazusamo
From the sounds of it the whole thing is dead. People are being advised to seek private health care insurance. Sounds like Obamacare as it stands will be equivalent to Medicaid.

All Obamacare has done is to place insurance further outside the reach of even more people. What good is health insurance if you can’t afford it?

How many of those were already insured?
How many of those did they shuffle off to Medicaid?

How many have paid vs just signed up. The fact that they signed up means nothing if they haven’t paid.

As I recall we are the 27th richest country in the world. Australia is the richest PP.... or is Obamination talking GDP... he not being an economist etc etc? If O had any credibility, his contention here is a lie, but I repeat myself. I think O was counting the Illegals (22 million) plus a flood thereof), welfare recipients, uneducated, libtards and all others too damned lazy to work. I had to pay all of my own doctor's bills since I was 16, not 26!

That was before the government decided they needed to regulate the cost of health care.

How many have paid vs just signed up. The fact that they signed up means nothing if they havent paid. Extend it further - How many may make that first monthly payment, see the second payment due and say, "you mean I gotta pay for this every month" hell no! Further when they try using their obamadeathcare, they find that it pays zilch until they pay the first $5K to $10K.
obama keeps putting of the inevitable (unconstitutionally), he will be out of office when the real s### hits the fan.
I hope that republican ads pound on the fact that not one republican voted for this farce.
Increase our lead in the House, take over the Senate and impeach the low life bastard as soon as the newly elected members are sworn in in Jan,2015.

" to insure 4.2 million people?Not really.
It has ALWAYS been solely about acquiring more power and control over the American people.

Anyone with a working brain who knows the wastrel youth of today should have been able to figure out why Obamacare never had the slightest chance of working.
The people they are utterly dependent on are, by and large, the least likely to cough up any money to make it work. The whole idea is foreign to them.
ME? You want ME to PAY? WTF? Dude! I am a member of the entitlement generation! I don’t give money to other people, they give money to me!
Those with a moderate amount of earned disposable income are even less likely because they’re young, in good health, and figure if something catastrophic happens they’ll get treated at the emergency room. Anything less, they’ll self medicate or pay cash at a doc in the box.
If some serious disease crops up, they’ll sign up the day they head to the hospital. The only people signing up are those with preexisting conditions who know they will be getting much more in treatment than they will be paying in premiums — and they are very unlikely to be on time with their payments.
The other group are those that are that are so rich that they don’t plan to use Obamacare anyhow. If THEY get sick they go to private clinics, see highly paid specialists, and use their credit cards on the way out the door.
