>> Rate of uninsured Californians is halved under Obamacare, survey finds Were you the slightest bit informed -- and I realize you're not -- you would have recognized immediately the falsehood in the first couple of paragraphs and stopped reading. "Those gains during the rollout of Obamacare dropped the nation's rate of uninsured from 20% last year to 15% now." The above sentence from the article is just an outright lie. The truth is that from Jan 2013 to Jan 2014 the uninsured rate dropped from 16.3% to 13.4%, that is, 2.9 percentage points. About half of which came from employer-sponsored coverage, for which Obamacare is not yet in effect. We have ruined the best health care system in the world, massively increased deficits, and taxes, for a lousy 1-2% gain in insureds.
