Good luck with this, but the liberal media can take a frickin' number and wait in line with everyone else who wants answers out of this Regime.
I'll betcha a burger that Obammy continues to dig in his heels and stonewall on numbers. Aunt Ester is going to be the grim face of Obamacare that will only get grimmer as the stonewalling continues and the demands for information get louder and louder and louder. The Regime is gambling big that they can have substantial numbers to report by mid November, but I will also bet you they try and put off any reporting until the end of November, after Thanksgiving.
But the biggest question is, what then?? What happens when they finally do release actual numbers and they are every bit as bad as we all think they are right now??
Keep in mind, they need about 39,000 people every day to sign up for Obamacare during the open enrollment period. If only 6 people signed up on day one as reported, then the other 38, 994 people get rolled into the remaining time in the open enrollment period. The Regime itself set a goal of signing up only 7 million people during open enrollment; even though Obamacare was passed on the premise that there were somewhere between 30-40 million people who were supposedly uninsured.
For reference, right now the number of cancelled policies nationwide are roughly equal to the entire Asian population in the United States. And that is just the start. A lot of insurers are handing out notices that they are giving people one year to find an alternative to their policies, and that their policies will expire on September 30, 2014. That means an enormous wave of cancellation will likely be hitting right before the mid-term elections.
We will see how this all plays out, especially with a sour economy, record unemployment, record food stamp participation (in spite of the cuts) and a federal government that is completely out of control. We don't even talk about dollar amounts in regard to the "debt ceiling", we talk in terms of how long unrestricted borrowing can go on. The US Treasury is seriously considering issuing 10 year bonds that will pay off at 25% interest in order to raise ready cash....which is no better than issuing the 1 Trillion Dollar coin they were considering a couple of months ago.
Not sure where this all ends, but it will not be polite and it will not be good.
Stout hearts...
