Larry Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 I'll let ya know on mine when Obama let's em tell me (Obama has nothing to do with them telling you. insurance is regulated by the state.) (At least, until the GOP decides to use the federal government to exempt insurance from state regulation.) that is not what I said ....you deaf?

HHS certainly moved the time back....make of it what ya will (I certainly will ) add the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) opted to push the start of the 2015 enrollment period for federal health-care exchanges back from mid-October 2014 to mid-November 2014 Read more at http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/gagorder.asp#0RqZCauR0k2hv3BL.99 Edited November 6, 2014 by twa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nice attempt to claim that your claim is supported, by linking to a Snopes article that flat out says your claim isn't true.

Larry Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 (edited) it says the email claim isn't.....details matter Junior Uh, no, it claims that there is no order preventing release of rates. In fact, is says that many rates were actually released. Reality matters, kid. And still waiting for your support for your claim that "most" exchanges, the lowest two priced items, and no others, are "fully" subsidized. You know, the claim that you made before you tried to run to your second untrue claim? Edited November 6, 2014 by Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twa Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 OK, so support the word "Most". hard to find the numbers U.S. pays for bulk of subsidized Obamacare policies, HHS reportshttp://blogs.marke****ch.com/health-exchange/2014/06/18/three-fourths-of-premiums-under-obamacare-paid-via-subsidies-hhs/ Those receiving health insurance subsidies in federally run exchanges under theAffordable Care Act are getting more than three-fourths of their premiums on average paid for by the government, data from the Department of Health and Human Services released Wednesday show. you might note that is ALL plans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've made the claim that . . . http://www.forbes.com/sites/rickungar/2014/10/31/key-study-on-obamacare-2015-premium-rates-is-out-and-you-wont-believe-whats-going-to-happen/ “According to a recent ASPE report, 64 percent of the 2014 enrollees in federally facilitated marketplaces chose either the lowest-price or second-lowest-price plan in their rating area.” wanna guess why? Robin Hood . . . proves that 64% of people on the exchange are there so they can steal other people's money, and they're picking the two lowest priced options because those options (and not the others) gets them more of other people's money. This is horse****. Which is why you've spent probably eight posts trying to run away from even bothering to attempt to support it.

twa Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 au contraire dear fellow, my assertion is the ones(most) on the lower 2 tiers pay no money, nowhere did I claim it gives them more of others money IF that is how you want to measure Obamacare as a success feel free , but those paying for it and having their own plans farted with might disagree let's see: if 64% chose the lower two plans and 75% of premiums are paid for those receiving subsidies in all plans that would = working?
