1.1 Million sign up to ACA

[HereWeGoAgain]

And just wait till all the new taxes kick in that are related to obammycare.
The screwing ain't over by a long shot. People that could afford insurance before...? Not anymore.

The program will get better as 2. 0 and 3.0 and the future editions roll out.

We will see more GOP candidates calling for reform and better cost effective analysis in ACA, not repeal, in the primaries.

Earth to Jake......Earth to Jake......come in Jake.......

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Even if 100% were formally "uninsured" that's only 2% of the 47MM who were supposed to get new coverage under ObungleCare

How many of them have their policies cancelled by the Liar in Chief?

^ Certifiable. Will apply for ObungleCare and site his post as evidence he's of diminished capacity (and a Republican)

There is no improving the program according to the GOP. It only needs to be killed and replaced with their plan....wait....what is that?

So 1.1M sign up for ACA and it is a big fucking deal; 5+M lose their insurance due to ACA and it's 'just a small amount'.

The GOP plan? Buy your own fucking insurance
We're sick of carrying you lazy ass from cradle to death

Obama and the left were saying 47 - 48 million Americans were uninsured before ObamaCare.
Where are they... We are now celabrating that 1 million signed up.
That's a dismal number.

 

[Rozman]

And how many of that 1 milllion were people that had insurance and then lost it because of ObmaCare
and now had to scramble to get covered...

The program cannot support itself with such low numbers.

As they say, "It ain't over till the fat lady sings" and that lady ain't gonna sing for a long time. However, you certainly don't need 7 million or even 3.3 million to sign up in order to support the premium structure.

According to Larry Levitt, Gary Claxton and Anthony Damico, experts at the Kaiser Family Foundation, there's not going to be a big problem if enrollments are lower than expected. "Even if young people sign up at half the rate the administration hopes for, it would nudge premiums up only by a few percentage points, their report says."

Why Obamacare won?t spiral into fiery, actuarial doom

Uh, what happened to the 30 million Barry Hussein claimed were uninsured and would be insured under Obozocare?

The plan was never to have everyone insured on day one. The CBO used 2017 in their estimates.

My premiums are due to increase by 120%. That's a tad more than "a few".

The link was addressing possible premium increases for 2015 if the number that signup for individual insurance is less than expected.

The shit is going to hit the proverbial fan next year. Millions are already fucked, with many millions to follow. It's started out as a disaster and it's going to go downhill from there.

In low-wage and retail industries, there may be an incentive to shift workers to part time," agreed Larry Levitt, a senior vice president with the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Levitt, a senior health policy adviser in the Clinton White House, said trying to avoid paying for employee benefits by hiring part-timers predates the Affordable Care Act.

1.1 million! Really? That is less than one third of the 3.4 million they projected just 3 months ago, that must make them feel so good.

define "signed up".

They managed to actually get onto a website that is run using a server run on a TRS-80 in a closet in the CMS office building.

How sad. I remember when Jake predicted that it would be popular because of how wonderful it is, now he just hopes it will get better.

Are you aware that the CBO projected 7 million people by January?
That means that 2.5 million people would have to sign up by the day after tomorrow in order to get to the halfway mark you are talking about.

After we deal with that impossibility, we can get into the fact that the article you posted doesn't actually deal with fewer people signing up, it is about the age distribution of the policies, not the actual numbers. Even your fucking quote says that, but thanks for proving you will defend the government even when it is wrong.
