Poll: 78% of Uninsured Not Interested in ObamaCare

[DLR Pyro]

remember how obama made it seem like a National crisis because millions of people do not have health insurance and want to be given the opportunity to buy it at an "affordable cost?

A new Gallup poll brings more terrible news for President Obama and his signature health plan, showing that only 22% of uninsured Americans intend to buy insurance through the ObamaCare exchanges.
 
One of the major selling points for using ObamaCare to disrupt our health care system (that polls showed up to 80% of Americans were satisfied with) was to insure the uninsured. But according to this poll, only a very small minority of that small minority is even interested in obtaining insurance.

so since obamacare depends on everyone buying into it to fund it, where is the money going to come from to pay for the 22% who are planning on buying it?

There should have been a safety valve built into obamacare, similar to how eBay auctions allow you to set a reserve to prevent an item from selling too low.  The law should have a clause that states that if x% of the population does not buy a policy thru obamacare, then the reserve has not been met and the law is automatically null and void.

A trip to the ER that you never planned to pay anyway is a hell of a lot cheaper than Obamacare.....and if you don't work, own nothing and already sponge off the government, what difference does it make now.

Losing ours.  Not doing 0care.  Will pay the fine.  Maybe.

How many of that 22% are going to change their minds when they find out how much it is going to cost them?

Well according to "O" and the gang, after they find out what a great deal it is, they will be crashing the website again.  That is, if they ever get the website up.

Many of those will be medicaid eligible. That is why Obama pushed for states to expand coverage for it.

Could the  new President repeal it in 2016?

If it's Crispy Crème, probably not.

You mean Christie? I think he's tougher than he looks. He can do it.

[DLR Pyro]

Could the new President Cruz repeal it after he is sworn in in 20167?

I hope so

[Freeper]

I hope so

Considering the chaos that is known as the GOP, Cruz will be lucky to get a second term as senator much less be on the GOP presidential ticket, they will follow the same winning strategy of the last two elections, RINO/conservative. We keep running the "only candidate that can win" and we still lose, so they won't risk running a conservative.

Now more than ever it's going to pay to keep in shape, don't perform any risky behaviors, eat and rest well, and generally do everything you can to gain and maintain top physical condition.

Some RINO will challenge Cruz and the GOP will sink hundreds of thousands of dollars into the campaign.

Amen to that.

Death by Obamacare: ‘Reform’ reams cancer patients

ObamaCare plans don’t include the vast majority of the best cancer doctors and cancer centers. That’s a huge problem for these patients. As Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former Medicare official, writes: “Cancer patients often need the help of specialized doctors and cancer institutions that won’t make it into many of these cheapened networks.”

All across the country, leading cancer centers — including New York’s Memorial Sloan Kettering — are excluded by the largest plans. In Washington state, the largest exchange plans exclude world-class cancer care for kids such as the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. California’s state-of-the-art Cedars-Sinai cancer center isn’t in any ObamaCare plan. Only a few plans include the Mayo Clinic.

Obama's shit sandwich called Obamacare gets worse and worse the more we find out about it. Even Bill Clinton stated that the law should be changed to allow people to keep their own doctors and hospitals. Now, we find out the Magic Negro lied once again.

One my best friends has cancer and started chemo and radiation treatments last month. She also has stage 4 kidney disease. Hopefully, Obamacare will not curtail her treatments.
