JOE BIDEN'S LIE:
“Not one single person on private insurance would lose their insurance under my plan, nor did they under Obamacare. They did not lose their insurance unless they chose something else."
Analysts estimated that at least 4 million Americans lost their health insurance under Obamacare. Yet Joe Biden thought he could repeat the false Obamacare claim that got branded “the Lie of the Year” in 2013.

FAKE NEWS!
What's fake is your claim to having a brain. Millions of people lost their health insurance thanks to Obamacare.

Geez, you are one ignorant ************...
"When the
Affordable Care Act (ACA, commonly referred to as Obamacare) was signed into law by President
Barack Obama on March 23, 2010, there was much debate about what would happen to citizens' existing plans under the new healthcare reform. One statement made repeatedly by the president, administration, and congressional supporters, was some form of the line Obama gave in an August 22, 2009, internet address, when he stated, "If you like your private health insurance plan, you can keep your plan. Period." Under the ACA, plans created before the date of the law's enactment would be allowed to remain in effect until they underwent a major change, like a reduction in benefits. These plans were called "grandfathered" health plans.

Health plans that were created between 2010 and 2014 and were not compliant with the ACA's requirements were supposed to come into compliance with the law at the beginning of 2014, when many of the ACA's major provisions went into effect. This included the requirement that insurance plans cover a standard set of benefits. In October 2013, many people insured through the individual market began receiving letters from their insurance carriers notifying them that their current plans would be canceled at the end of the policy term. The plans were canceled because they did not meet new minimum coverage requirements set by the law. On October 29, 2013,
NBC News reported that 50 percent to 75 percent of the 14 million Americans with individual healthcare plans would receive a cancellation notice in the next year.

On November 14, 2013, President Obama announced the administration's intention to allow people whose insurance plans had been canceled during this time to re-enroll in their plans. Insurers would be allowed to continue to offer these plans until 2015. On December 19, 2013, the administration announced that those whose plans were canceled under the law met the
Health and Human Services Department's hardship exemption"from penalties under the individual mandate. The stated exemption covers those who "experienced financial or domestic circumstances, including an unexpected natural or human-caused event, such that he or she had a significant, unexpected increase in essential expenses that prevented him or her from obtaining coverage under a qualified health plan." On March 5, 2014, the administration delayed the requirement that health plans come into compliance for a second time, allowing insurers to continue offering these plans until 2017.
