7 million. Out of 300,000,000. Big whoop.

And how many LOST their insurance?

FUBO

It’s fun to remove zeroes from numbers to get a feeling for what the numbers mean.

In this case it means seven out of over 300. And we don’t know how many of those seven have made so much as a first payment, i.e. we don’t know if they “really” have insurance.

Meanwhile, I no longer have health insurance, as of Jan. of this year. Too expensive. It is a rich man’s luxury now.

Read Brietbart.

After careful and logical dissection of the real numbers it turns out that about 800k now have “insurance” who were formerly uninsured. About 1.6% of the 48 million uninsured now have Obamacare. Everyone else (and it’s NOT 7 million) either enrolled in Medicaid, signed up but has not/ will not pay the actual premium or already *had* insurance, but lost it due to ObamaCare.

In Maryland, 98% of the ObamaCare enrollees are Medicaid. 2% are paying customers. Yes.....98% are medicaid.

So, Obama has destroyed our health care system to get 1/4 of a percent of Americans “insured”. And the liberals I know think that is a good thing.

And we are all arguing whether we should elect liberal RINOs as preferable to Socialist Dems. We are so screwed.

And how many LOST their insurance?

I read a report some few months ago that nearly 9,000,000 people in California alone lost their insurance due to Obamacare. Florida another 2.5 Million people lost their insurance and some 800,000 here in Illinois did as well

I had counted it up once after reading through all the states and how many lost their insurance, the number was somewhere between 25-30 million IIRC.

So 7 Million sign up and it's a "success?" Try telling that to all the people who LOST their insurance and can NO LONGER AFFORD it thanks to Obamacare.

Articles like this one (and a very similar one in today's LA Times) are why so few people believe the lamestream media anymore.
