9 million more uninsured under ObamaJanuary 29, 2012 by Don Surber
This is the story that should be banner headlines across America. According to the Gallup Poll, 14.8% of Americans had no medical insurance in the final full month of President George Walker Bush’s regime. Under President Obama, 17.7% are uninsured. Based on 2010 Census figures, this means 54.6 million people are without medical insurance nearly 2 years after passage of Obamacare.
That is up from 45.7 million under President Bush.
Minorities were hardest hit.
In other words, President Bush’s health plan — do basically nothing — meant nearly 9 million more people had insurance than they do under President Obama’s federalization of the health insurance industry.
From Gallup Poll comes the liberal spin: “However, more adults aged 18 to 26 now covered.”
That’s like offering free beer to a Mormon. Young adults 18-26 are among the healthiest demographic groups in the nation.
So not only has Barack Obama’s failed economic and health insurance policies resulted in fewer people with health insurance, this means the people he did insure by and large did not need it.
Meanwhile, health prices continue to rise.
As I said, minorities were hardest hit. The chart that Gallup used was confusing but hardest hit among the racial groups were Asians, followed by Hispanics, blacks and lastly, whites.
By income, those earning less than $36,000 a year were hardest hit.
Those percentage of people insured actually increased among those earning $90,000 a year.
From the government, here to help.
