>> A record number of people have signed up for health insurance for 2017 on the federal exchanges created by the 2010 law.

No they didn't. That was the kind of bullshit you get from our government. Pure propaganda. The explanation is a simple trick.

The truth? Just look at the insurance companies who WALKING AWAY from that line of business. You really don't have to know anything else; it isn't about the number of signups, at this point. It is whether the business model makes any sense at all.

The wheels are coming off, for a lot of reasons, but to argue it is anything but a failure at this point is absurd. Anyone who has followed this horrible legislation from its outset knows what the numbers needed to be and what they are. The exchange will continue to melt for the next couple years until the repeal is done.

It is every bit the disaster so many of us told you it would be.
