More than 7 million have enrolled under Affordable Care Act, White House says​


Just WH at the end causes, or should cause anyone, to be skeptical. And the number of newly insured or those that have paid is not known. And it also amazing how thew new numbers were available so quickly when it was like pulling teeth to get them once a month.

Propaganda from the very top about something pushed through by one party that had to buy a couple of states to do that.

@coldjoint,
Do you really think that those numbers can't be proven, Henny Penny?

I bet you don't even know the Henny Penny story. And if they are proven they need those other facts I mentioned to be known. That number alone means ****. Remember the law was designed to insure people that were not insured.

Which means people with cancelled plans do not count.

Bribery. They achieved their goal the way the Democrats always do, with bribery. Something for nothing, passing the bill on to our children. Take 5.6 million people, give 'em an average of $250 per month in premium subsidies, and that's $16.8 billion dollars of wealth transfer a year, just to buy votes.

Your tax dollars at work!

Only 858,000 newly insured Americans have paid for Obamacare

While the Obama regime and the leftist media are trying to do victory laps over ObamaCARE hitting the ’7 million enrolled total’, the fact remains ObamaCARE is still an epic failure and will come home to roost against the Democrats in the mid-term elections. 6.3 million Americans have already lost their health insurance coverage thanks to ObamaCARE, and they make up at least 85% of the ’7 million’ total enrolled in ObamaCARE.

It means exactly what is says. the law has done very little for the chronically uninsured. You just ignore all the faults like the other arrogant fools here. Wait til November.

Popularity For Obamacare Hits All-Time High In Latest ABC/Washington Post Poll

Popularity For Obamacare Hits All-Time High In Latest ABC/Washington Post Poll
By: Justin Baragona
Monday, March, 31st, 2014, 6:34 pm



The good news keeps pouring in for supporters of the Affordable Care Act. Heading into the final day to signup for an individual health plan in the federal and state marketplaces, a new poll was released by ABC News and the Washington Post that shows the popularity for the ACA at an all-time high. For the first time in the poll’s history, more people have a favorable view of the health care law than those who oppose it.

In this most recent poll, 49% of Americans responded that they supported the ACA. Meanwhile, 48% said they were not in favor of the law. While this is hardly a huge difference, it does mark the first time that the poll has shown a net positive for the law in terms of popularity. Once before, in July 2012, the poll showed it even at 47-47. This also represented the overall high water mark for the law in this particular poll. The previous high was 48% in November 2009.

After the much-criticized and overblown ‘disastrous rollout’ of the federal health exchange and its website, Healthcare.gov, in October 2013, the ACA showed a net negative of 17 points in this poll, 40-57. Now, it sits at a +1. Recently, a Kaiser poll, while showing a net negative in terms of popularity, revealed that 59% of Americans do not support a repeal of the law, with only 29% supporting such a move. Also, the same poll stated that 53% of people want politicians to stop debating the law and move onto something else.

Yes, this is only one poll. And, obviously, Republicans will be able to point to some other recent poll showing the ACA is unpopular. However, given the context of the tidal wave of good news surrounding these final days of the ACA’s first open enrollment period, you have to think that this poll is like a kick in the gut for conservatives who have placed all of their eggs in the ‘Obamacare is bad’ basket. With enrollment likely to surge past 7 million by the end of the day on Monday, and Medicaid expansion and other provisions of the law having helped millions of other previously uninsured people get health coverage for the first time, Republicans once again find themselves on the wrong side of history.

Obamacare numbers coming in huge: Here's a guide to GOP excuse-making
Against all odds and expectations, enrollments in health plans qualified under the Affordable Care Act are surging Monday toward -- and maybe beyond -- the 7-million figure projected by the Congressional Budget Office before Oct. 1, when the open-enrollment period began. The deadline for starting enrollment applications for 2014 plans is midnight Monday.

The surge is creating a big problem for the "train wreck" narrative of Republican opponents of the ACA, who have been holding out hope for Obamacare's utter failure. So the excuse-making has begun.

Before we examine those excuses: You will recall that the budget office reduced its projection of enrollments on individual insurance exchanges to 6 million earlier this year to account for the botched launch of healthcare.gov, the federal enrollment website. Enrollments blew past that mark days ago. If exchange enrollments meet or exceed the original projection of 7 million despite the loss of some six weeks in website functionality in October and November, that would be a testament to the public's latent desire for effective healthcare coverage.

The excuse machine started as soon as the law went into effect and it was Obama and the Democrats making the excuses. Delay after delay, phony stats that only told half the story, and of course deliberate lies.

Again the law has not insured anymore uninsured than before. It insured those forced to go there because of cancellations and people that get subsidies on the taxpayers dime.

re coldjoint"
Andrea Mitchell is an idiot. That is completely untrue. Those "cancellations" were purely a bookkeeping thing. Just about everyone who got the notice was offered a new policy, and the bulk of them were "seamlessly transferred" in insurance industry jargon to a new policy which met ACA standards with the same company. Further, a number of companies in a number of state were able to extend those old substandard policies (which were the ones "cancelled") to the end of 2014. So your numbers are further out of touch with reality.

Including insurance company statistics, the industry wrote something over nine million (yes, nine million) new policies since ACA went into effect, which covered those who were cancelled, as well as people who bought health insurance outside Healthcare.gov or ACA or state exchanges. And those policies met ACA higher standards.

Do try to make at least occasional touch with reality, joint.

No, you are an idiot. Mitchell has nothing to do with that website. You don't know your fellow sycophants very well do you? It also proves you do not visit the links and read them. .

@MontereyJack,
Those policies were only substandard according to the ACA. How many of those 5 million cancelled policies were people happy with. The ACA only considers them substandard because it set the standards. If you like your insurance you can keep it? Remember that?

5 million people had policies cancelled and we have just over 7 million sign up for insurance. Interesting how they got to that 7 million # isn't it?

re coldjoint:
as I remember reading your cite, it was attributed to her. I may be wrong in that. I have no idea who she is. Let me rephrase it: coldjoint, whoever is responsible for the faux"statistics" in your cite is an idiot. And you are too for accepting them without any fact checking at all.
