>> You did...

No, I didn't. I've simply pointed out that a lot of the so called "progress" in reducing the number of uninsureds was a reduction of uinsureds that were created by Obama and Obamacare in the first place.

These people were not uninsured when Obama first arrived in the White House. Only after he got there did they become insured. So, you can't claim "success" by getting them insured. They didn't have a problem to begin with.

And in reality, the "newly" insured are not part of the risk pool. They're Medicaids. Welfare. Nothing more. "Please, please please let us give you health insurance at taxpayer expense!" These are not people who are paying for anything. And that matters.

The risk pools are still a terrible mess which the taxpayers are probably going to end up shoring up. Socialized medicine, if the law isn't undone.

And these are just the problems with enrollment numbers. The really devastating stuff is elsewhere.

The program is not only bad it is far worse than I think ANYONE expected.
