The CBO has done another assessment of Obamacare: it finds that ClusterCare will leave, uhm, 30 million people uninsured:
A new Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report says that under the Affordable Care Act, a.k.a. Obamacare, 30 million non-elderly Americans will remain without health insurance in 2022.
One of the main arguments the Obama administration made for passing the Affordable Care Act was that it would provide coverage for the uninsured.
...Under Obamacare, 8 percent of legal U.S. residents will remain without health insurance in 2022, according to CBO... The report was done to assess the fiscal impact of the Supreme Court June Obamacare decision.
“CBO and JCT [Joint Committee on Taxation] now estimate that the ACA, in comparison with prior law before the enactment of the ACA, will reduce the number of nonelderly people without health insurance coverage by 14 million in 2014 and by 29 million or 30 million in the latter part of the coming decade, leaving 30 million nonelderly residents uninsured by the end of the period,” the report said.
“Before the Supreme Court’s decision, the latter number had been 27 million,” states the report.
As a result of the Supreme Court decision, states are no longer obligated under Obamacare to expand eligibility for their Medicaid programs.
Let me get this straight: Democrats destroyed the entire health care system to insure, like, 3 extra people?
Tell Congress: sign the petition -- Don't Fund Obamacare. Stop it now.

Agree that the policy makers have focused on almost each aspect and the cost of health insurance policy has increased many folds meanwhile not every person can afford these costly insurance policy.
Thanks

Oh, wow, so worth it. Maybe they could fire missiles into Syria to start WWIII - oh, forget it, they thought of that already.
They achieved their goal, though. They got free healthcare for thirty million welfare recipients who will always vote for them, and canceled the healthcare of 30 million middle class Republicans, some of whom will now die sooner. In the meantime, the taxpaying Republicans will still get to pay for the 30 million deadbeats.
