Jonathon Gruber became famous for being exposed for declaring - numerous times - how Americans who believed the lies told about the ACA were 'stupid' and how liberal politicians count on them being so stupid and trusting.
Well, he's back...and now he is proclaiming how Americans are stupid / ignorant because they just don't realize how gosh-darned lucky they are that Obama and Democrats rammed this minority-supported piece of socialist legislation down the throats of the majority of Americans who opposed it.
Sure the ACA was based on lies, is a POS, and is collapsing right now on its own...but you just don't realize how much it has done for you!
Obamacare architect insists Americans just ‘don’t understand’ how much law has done for them
"Carlson pressed Gruber on his comments, asking if he really thinks Americans are “that dumb” that they don’t know about their own health insurance. But Gruber insisted that he never said anything of the kind but rather was making the point that those who neither benefited from nor have been hurt by Obamacare have “heard a lot of misinformation” about what the law actually does."
Yeah, Gruber didn't want to talk about all of those videos that made him famous - he just wanted to keep talking about how awesome the collapsing ACA is...
"Gruber conceded that the people who have been most disadvantaged by Obamacare are the top 2 percent and young, healthy adults, who now pay more for their health insurance in order help pay for coverage for individuals who can’t afford it.
Carlson didn’t stop there. He then asked Gruber why those paying more “shouldn’t be annoyed that they have to pay for services they don’t want or need.”
Gruber called those concerns a “trivial distraction from the problem.”
The federal government mandating - telling you - what you need as opposed to making that decision yourself is a 'trivial issue'. Got it! 'Nuff said.
