As if the Obama regime cares what the cost to the taxpayers is.


Taxpayers will pay over $53,000 per each person newly insured under Obamacare, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation analysis of the Congressional Budget Office data.

Last week’s highly debated CBO report found that Obamacare will cost slightly less than expected over the next decade. The budget office shifted its assessment of the health care law due to unexpectedly low premiums, which it attributed not to lowered costs but on “less attractive” health insurance offerings than it assumed would be available.

The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a liberal fiscal policy group, released its own analysis of the CBO findings Tuesday, concluding that the CBO had also cut the estimated cost of the Medicaid expansion on state budgets.

The CBO predicts that on average, federal taxpayers will now pay over 95% of the total cost of the Medicaid expansion. Fewer than expected Americans who were already eligible for traditional state Medicaid programs signed up for coverage while programs received free publicity due to the furor over the Medicaid expansion, leading to a lowered estimates of the Medicaid costs states will incur.

I had a patient, who currently has BCBS insurance through work, tell me that he's going to quit his job, apply for disability, not sign up for any insurance because he can buy it when he needs it. He had his prostate removed by us for cancer and is going to try to get disability for it. I told him that he could bring us his forms but we would say that he is well enough for work.

You have to give Obama and the Libs credit. They WON. They installed the 2nd largest Welfare program in our history...(likely to be eventually the largest) Anyone that does not understand this has NOTHING to do with health care is dumb as a box of rocks. This is about a gang turf war. The bloods won this round.
