Don't want the tyranny or expense of Obozocare? Don't enroll! Most aren't! The ACA is set to implode on its own! ![]() 36,000!?!: Embarrassingly low enrollment numbers put ObamaCare in jeopardy “In total, 11.3 million consumers visited the federal and state exchanges during their first week of operation,” he explained. “Unfortunately, what started as a fire hose of interest, resulted in only a small trickle of actual healthcare enrollments.” Pace noted that 27% of those who visited the site, some 214,000 people, were able to register an account, but the actual enrollment numbers are, well, pathetic. http://www.unitedliberty.org/articles/15319-embarrassingly-low-enrollment-numbers-put-obamacare-in-jeopardy |

Based on the traffic and reports of successful enrollees, they note that just 1% of people who visited the exchange websites actually enrolled
REPORTS of? how many reported? 196000 began enrollment,, I don't think that's too bad give it time, by the deadline things will obviously have increased as people take their time trying to understand and shop around and compare on the exchange,, and as the difficulties with some of the sites are corrected,,,, |

Well the deadline is sometime in March I think, so we will see what people think of it at that time. I won't be enrolling in it. |

I think the first year will be lowest, with only a 95 dollar fine for not having insurance,, it gives people some testing time to try and watch how it unfolds after that , when fines increase a bit and if things have run smoothly enough that first year, is when numbers will most pick up but people still have low incomes ( the dominant subgroup amongst uninsured) and those not eligible for state aid(in nv ,Medicaid eligibility for a single is 1273, for parent with 1 child 2055) if I made 4000 a month, id be ineligible for state aid, but my payment would be 290-380 a mo(The same employee rate I have making slightly more than 25 percent of that), or up to 9% of my income,,,, when people figure out how to figure it out, and to budget it in,, it will eventually start to transition more smoothly |

And how many more taxpayer dollars? This is another bad joke at taxpayer expense on America from this admin just like his green power fiascos. Does anything this peabrain comes up with ever have a chance of working or helping people? NO! Even his $2.9B NSA fiasco is burning and doesn't work, plus it uses over 1.9M gallons of water a day to cool this monstrosity and local business is already complaining of brownouts and water shortages and rising costs of utilities to offset it! |
