Ah, yes, we can really conclude on statistics now that the Affordable Health Care has been operating for six years.
Six weeks, do you say, and the website is very difficult to use? how then can any kind of reliable statistics exist?
Statistics??!! We don't need no stinkin' statistics!! We have the President himself:
"Facing growing opposition from his own party, President Obama today proposed a fix to a key component of his signature health care law, allowing Americans who are losing their coverage because of
the Affordable Care Act to keep their plans for up to a year before being forced into coverage that meets the new standards....
Six weeks into the botched rollout of the HealthCare.gov, the president admitted, "we fumbled the rollout on this health care law."
"We should have done a better job of getting that right on day one," he said....
...In selling the Affordable Care Act to the U.S. public, the president often used the same refrain: "If you like your plan, you can keep your plan."
"There is no doubt that the way I put that forward unequivocally ended up not being accurate," he said today. "It was not because of my intention not to deliver on that commitment and that promise.
"My expectation was that for 98 percent of the American people, either it genuinely wouldn't change at all, or they'd be pleasantly surprised with the options in the marketplace and that the grandfather clause would cover the rest," he said. "That proved not to be the case. And that's on me."
Is this an example of Obamian double-speak?
The decision to "allow Americans to keep their pans (millions of which have already been cancellled)
"....comes a day after the White House announced that only 26,794 people, a far smaller number than expected,
successfully chose a health insurance plan using the glitch-plagued Healthcare.gov website in its first month."
"In total, 106,185 people signed up for health insurance in October, and most of those individuals -- 79,391 -- used the 15 state-run websites, not the troubled federal site, the White House said Wednesday."
