Nearly one million Obamacare 'enrollees' have never paid any premiums
Friday, March 21, 2014
by: Ethan A. Huff, staff writer

(NaturalNews) It won't be long before the March 31 Obamacare enrollment deadline arrives, and the latest data still show that very few people have signed up for the scheme. In fact, according to recent figures put out by the Obama administration, there have only been about 4.2 million total enrollments logged in healthcare exchanges across the country, and of these only 3.3 million enrollees have actually paid their premiums.

As of March 1, less than half of the sitting government's projected 7 million Obamacare enrollments have actually materialized, and fewer still have followed through with actually paying for their Obama insurance. Based on data collected from the Obamacare marketplaces in California, Connecticut, Maryland, Nevada, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington, less than 80 percent of Obamacare enrollees have thus far paid their insurance premiums, with no system in place to actually track these payments.

According to the UK's Daily Mail, fewer than 1 million Americans signed up for Obamacare during the month of February, despite aggressive marketing campaigns that aired via television, radio and social media. Even a recent publicity stunt on the internet mini-show Funny or Die, where Obama hounded the public to sign up for Obamacare, failed to push enrollment numbers toward the administration's goal.

More than 80 percent of Obamacare enrollees previously had health insurance

Because of this, the administration has had to readjust its projected enrollment outcomes and even twist the numbers to make it look like more people are complying with the healthcare takeover than actually are. Obama and co. have also glossed over the fact that most of the people signing up for Obamacare are people who previously had insurance and were forced to adopt the new plan

"Only 27 per cent [sic] of new enrollees -- or 1.14 million of the total announced Tuesday -- were uninsured before they signed up,"
writes political editor David Martosko for the Daily Mail. "Millions of insured Americans received cancellation letters from their insurers in October, November and December, spurred by the companies' recognition that their existing offerings didn't satisfy the Affordable Care Act's stringent minimum standards."

90 percent of eligible Americans refusing to sign up for Obamacare Another zinger is the overall percentage of eligible enrollees who have actually signed up for Obamacare.

According to an analysis conducted by the consultancy group McKinsey & Co., only about 10 percent of eligible Americans have opted to participate in the program thus far, a dismal figure that demonstrates the true extent of Obamacare's unpopularity.

"Of the 3.3 million people that the White House has touted as Obamacare exchange 'sign-ups,'
Less than 500,000 are actual uninsured people who have actually gained health coverage," writes Avik Roy for Forbes.com, noting that the most significant reason why people are deciding not to enroll under Obamacare is that they simply cannot afford the premiums.

Percentage of Americans with health insurance has dropped since Obama took office.
With all this in mind, it is hardly surprising that the overall number of insured people in this country has actually dropped since Obama took office. The millions of hard-working Americans who were previously insured but who have now lost their coverage, as well as uninsured individuals everywhere who still cannot afford health insurance even under Obamacare, exceeds the number of people who are actually benefiting as a result of the scheme.

"While the percentage of uninsured Americans has dropped from 17.1 per cent at the end of 2013 to just 15.9 per cent now, that number stood at just 14.4 per cent before Obama took office," adds Martosko about the dilemma.

Says the hypocrite who has a barely legal shotgun rigged to carry on a stling under his coat. Great for armed robberies and drug transactions. Among other guns. Who is it that has violent paranoid fantasies?

My shotgun is totally legal. It now sports the shortest legal barrel and still has it's stock.

It used to have this barrel. Now it's about a foot shorter.

I've also got a 12 gauge riot pump with 00 buck.I'd hope just racking a round into the chamber would be enough to send someone packing - it's a scary sound! You could still just blow their legs off with it.

It's the best gun for home defense. I have a pump, with just the sound of me racking a shell into the chamber puts evil-doers on notice. Your aim doesn't have to be perfect. The pellets are unlikely to go through a wall and kill an innocent.

Let's face it, we're NEVER going to get rid of guns in America. Guns are in our constitution! So, you might as well buy YOURS.

Looks cool, but I just bought an old Savage 12ga pump and sawed off the barrel and stock. Just the racking sound is scary! I tried it out on some 1 gallon plastic milk bottles filled with water - they EXPLODED! 00 buck

It's the legal absolute minimum length. It was a goose gun and had a barrel 10 miles long. I've got it on a shoulder sling. It's real easy to carry under a coat concealed.

Throw away that shotgun and move to Washington State and get a legal SBR (short barreled rifle).

Don’t go getting your hacksaws out just yet Washington residents.Senate Bill 5956 will legalize the possession of short barreled rifles within Washington State, however all NFA regulations still apply to purchasing, assembling and possessing an SBR. That means you’ll still be filling out ATF forms before that shiny new 14.5? Ar-15 can be yours.

Currently, SBR’s are illegal in Washington state, despite the fact that they are legal at the federal level with the proper tax stamp.

The House passed the bill today with a vote of 95-3. The bill passed the State Senate last month, unanimously, with a vote of 47-0.

If you want to view the full bill, you can do so here.

Looks to be veto proof even by our idiot governor.
