More Insured Under Obamacare?

[longknife]

Well, the government claimed that was the case.


BUT – when fact-checked, here's the TRUTH:


Yet, the separate “Technical Notes: Data and Methods” the department issued with its fact sheet makes it clear the reverse is the case. The more accurate statement would have been: “Based on answers to its surveys, Gallup estimates that during this period the uninsured rate decreased by 7.1 percentage points. We used Gallup’s estimate as the basis for extrapolating that 14.1 million adults gained coverage. We further assume all of those estimated 14.1 million individuals gained coverage as a result of the Affordable Care Act.”


In other words, as usual the Obama administration is using fabricated data to try to prove it's case! Read the story @ Did 14.1 Million People Gain Health Coverage

What did anyone gain that was not provided by Medicaid already?

The insured increased between 10.7 and 16.2 million.

No way can you juggle the figures lower than above.

So, yes, more are insured.
