Obamacare, the plan purportedly created to provide health coverage for the uninsured, has enrolled just 1.7% of America's 48.6 million uninsured.
News of the disastrous numbers comes as nervous Democrats and President Barack Obama, ahead of the November midterm elections, did their best on Monday's enrollment deadline to put a positive spin on the deeply unpopular Obamacare program. The latest Associated Press poll finds that Obamacare has now hit an all-time low approval rating of just 26 percent.
The White House now claims an Obamacare enrollment figure of six million people. However, according to The New York Times, at least 20% of those never paid their premiums to activate coverage, leaving them uninsured. That drops the number down to 4.8 million.
Next, as Washington Post columnist Ed Rogers notes, "the official HHS numbers still include duplicate enrollments." No one knows how many duplicate enrollments are in the stack; the White House refuses to say. However, given the disastrous Obamacare website failures, it is reasonable to imagine that the pile is riddled with numerous "false start" applications.

That's consistent with what McKinsey found in their research. They found about 27% of those enrolling were previously uninsured and about half of those who enrolled had paid premiums so 13.5% of the 6 million was just over 800K people. That is really SAD after all the billions spent on this.

Numbers will be delayed until May I believe. First they're giving people an extra 2 weeks to enroll. Then they'll need to figure out HOW to explain all of those who (1) were already previously insured (2) those who were cancelled and had to apply for Odumbocare and be left with a rather low number of actual newly covered people.

Think about this ... even if they enrolled 2.5 million people who previously did not have insurance that's a measly 5% of the 48 million uninsured. And to think of the billions spent .. the per person enrollment rate is likely in the tens of thousands of $$$$. No for profit business would expend such amounts of $$$. They'd see that whatever product was being offered as a loser/failure before spending that amount. Further, they are a real company, unlike the government who answers to nobody. No shareholders. No Board of Directors. Odumbo & Co. just use their blank checks to spend as much as they want.
 
exactly. and even if they exceed your marks... we still have not seen how many more will lose their insurance and how much higher they hike premiums and deductibles.

Here's how to get rid of the Obamacare train wreck.
The citizens have to make a deal with Obama.

Here's the deal:

Obama must allow the repeal of Obamacare.

Then, we will give Obama one billion dollars if he will quit the office of president, leave the country, and never step foot on U.S. soil again.

He might take it.

I'd donate.
