Kentucky leads U.S. charge to get uninsured signed up for Obamacare

“I’ll be able to go to the doctor ... to my specialist,” said Dean, a 59-year-old retiree from western Louisville whose family income is about $18,000 a year. “I believe it’s going to take a lot of people out of bondage that (are) in pain and ... don’t go to the doctor because they can’t afford it.”

It’s part of a larger effort to encourage Kentucky’s 640,000 eligible uninsured residents to get coverage in a state that is among the poorest and unhealthiest in the nation.

You would think that a state that is 90% white and living under "conservative" policies for the last 150 years wouldn't be among the poorest and unhealthiest in the nation.

Then again.............

WOW! Over 134,000 pre-screenings for Obamacare in tiny Kentucky

Yep, Kentucky is a "Tiny State".
Oh wait, it is the 26th most populous state, that places it smack dab in the middle of population when it comes to US states.

Well, looky there:

Kentucky got something to work that the Federal government has utterly failed at.

How does it feel to realize that, derp? An ignorant red state has kicked the Fed's ass, and in something very technical.

Take notes about how we did it. You could obviously learn something.

Well, THIS thread hasn't gone the way derp expected.

Under Democratic leadership from a Democratic Governor; imagine that. If all these states had set up their own exchanges rather than forcing the federal government to handle so many of them with only three months to set it up, well maybe we would have seen better results. I do think the biggest problem is that the federally run exchange should have been broken down into how many ever individual states they needed to run the exchange for rather than trying to run all the states through one exchange.

The Federal government is under Democratic leadership from a Democratic President.

So why have they failed so badly?

If all these states had set up their own exchanges rather than forcing the federal government to handle so many of them with only three months to set it up, well maybe we would have seen better results.

Three months to set it up?

When was ACA singned into law?
