People are signing up for Obamacare in record numbers despite President Trump’s effort to hamper enrollment in the program. Grace Baldridge, Nando Vila and Simone Boyce the hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. Join TYT: https://goo.gl/v8E64M. A record number of people signed up for ObamaCare in the first few days of open enrollment this year compared to the same period in previous years, several sources close to the process told The Hill.. The surge in sign-ups, which was confirmed by an administration official, comes despite fears from Democrats that enrollment would fall off due to the Trump administration’s cutbacks in outreach and advertising.. On the first day of enrollment alone, Nov. 1, one source close to the process told The Hill that more than 200,000 people selected a plan for 2018, compared with about 100,000 last year. More than 1 million people visited healthcare.gov that day, compared to about 750,000 last year, the source said.. It is still early in the process and it is unclear how the final sign-up numbers will come out. Sign-ups early in the enrollment season are often people renewing their coverage, not new enrollees..

Nonetheless, a cursory inspection of the available data does not reveal a clear increase in healthcare spending after the adoption of the Constitution (and Law 100).

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that by 2020, the legislation will reduce the number of the uninsured by 32 million, but it will still leave 23 million Americans (including undocumented aliens) without health insurance.
As we shall see later in this chapter, many millions more Americans have health insurance now than before Obamacare took full effect in 2013, although efforts by the Trump administration to weaken Obamacare have reversed this trend to some extent.

And the president wants to gut this medical notion? Just grow from it…You have alot of cultures that have come to America over time and its not these civilians faults.
Well yes when something is under attack and it could be lost people want to back it and don’t want to lose it and rightly so in this case. The extent of the media explaining about Obama care has helped as well. And everybody should be signing up to it just to make sure they don’t destroy it.
those eighties glasses however….way back then you looked like an idiot and now thirty years later you still look like an idiot wearing those glasses. most idiotic design ever
this pos had the nerve to quote Regan? wtf? Regan didn’t have a partisan divide in the Government and never had to deal with egotists the level of Lew, Obama, and the rest of the moronic liberals!
surprise marketing companies which their entire job is to market is better than government but in that the government is better at running the system of what is required in the healthcare policies
@Nando Vila So they convinced you the US cannot afford its Welfare State? No, the reason Republicans want to cut the Welfare State is because they only care about exploiting the weak. For them strength must prevail. No lenience, no mercy, no second chances. The poor have to be serfs to the wealthy, who can dispose of their lives however they see fit. Feudal relations is their model of society. Budget balancing and spending moderation are just a smokescreen.
This shows that people WANT their health care. They do NOT want to lose it. Tonight’s massive Democratic victories show how unhappy the people are with the current administration.
I think what’s ironic is that all those signups are more than likely from all of the newly employed because remember “JOBS” we have soooo many more now right? But of course the big issue isn’and never has really been jobs being available, it’s jobs with livable wages and benefits being available. So all the new jobs he created need to get healthcare somehow and well…..nobody wants to pay for their employees to have ins. these days so…..there’s that.
I am outside America, and I & my family, “advertised” the sign up date on all Social Media, as we heard what was happening in cutting of funding of the outreach….
Republican’s are such assholes. If they would have done their job for the last 8 years instead of freaking out about the black guy in the White House, Obamacare would have a lot of the kinks worked out and things would be improving more and more. They are doing nothing for this country; they are not offering anything positive for the country and well, they are not doing their jobs. Fire them…there’s an election right around the corner. Vote!!! Look what happens when people decide to stay home. Vote!!!
Actually let me tell you a secret. Most of the sign ups are fake. You have to sign up multiple time to get the best rate. They give you a different rate each time.
I think you’re right. In 1 year when 1 + million have signed up for ACA and the IRS has to figure out how to fine hundreds of millions of people it will be an interesting ride. I wonder how much of it will be used in the mid-term elections?
Also, f.y.i. there also exist terrorist life insurance to include in life insurance plan because if a terrorist, God forbid it, happens and affects you, your life insurance will not possibly paid out. Get informed please about your life insurance plan.
Pakman, you shouldn’t be surprised by the slower inflation in premiums. The fed upped the interest rate. Each rate increase takes pressure off the insurance industry that back stops their operations with bonds. It’s the whole reason Obamacare was pushed through, to allow the fed to push rates down by buying up all the bonds and transfer cost to the public. As rates go up premiums will stabilize to normal inflation.
But I was told that the Affordable Care Act was bad… why do people sign up for bad stuff? Maybe cuz it isn’t as bad as Trump says. It’s not perfect, but it’s not the end of the world
Obama care takes subsidies from fannie mae. Nobody told us that until tbis year. Its almost impossible for us to get free healthcare because the insurance and pharm companies wont charge less like in other coutries. Its inhumane. So they pay lobbyist, congress and the news to set to put up fake fights to confuse us so they can steal are tax money and charger higher rates. They are brainwashing us and raping us. Its a hiest. Please wake up!
already signed and my whole family and friends about to sign. I was one of those people that though I didn’t need to buy healthcare until I got really sick around 2016 and found out that i need to have surgery asap. Thanks to Obamacare I was able to afforded and get the surgery. Even if you are one of those people who doesn’t get sick often, just get it.
Single payer is socialism…. that is all you hear from the right, so I guess none of them pay any kind of taxes at all? don’t they realize that taxes fund most if not all socialist programs? fire, police, garbage pick up, etc…. we should be communists by now…….
..the sad part is: this isn’t just some program that the govt is trying out 2 C if its worthy of becoming law. This is MANDATED by the Federal Government to participate in it, or ELSE face heavily progressive IRS FINES!
This is the epitome of tyranny and a free people are almost willingly and wittingly accepting it. And when a person like Ted Cruz comes along in a final effort to stop this law, he is cast as the most “hated man in America” by the media.
2.3% of the population “rushed” to investigate their options. 7 million out of 300 million. Of those a small fraction signed up. Doesnt sound like a successful opening. Appears there is not much interest in this hack plan. Maybe fascism is not as popular as they thought.
People really need to stop calling it Obamacare. I’m not being politically correct, just factually correct. It doesn’t include the word Obamacare or even the word Obama. A significant number of Americans don’t know what the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 is. People are being misled by pundits, politicians and even journalists who are supposed to be objective. The sensationalist media aren’t going to tell Americans the truth. I’ve gotten much more objective information from people who work for the insurance companies than I have from the media, politicians or even doctors. I mentioned the ACA to my doctor, and she didn’t know what the ACA was. She has mentioned Obamacare before, but she didn’t know the name of the law.
The funny thing.. Most of these people enrolling are Obama haters and don’t realize ACA and Obamacare are the same.. They love Trump, who cut their insurance and they still don’t care and love him.. People are finally understanding what Obamacare is because Trump vocalized about it so much…
How do we know 7 million actually rushed to the website? California admitted that there initial number was inflated by 4.35 million. They said on Wednesday that 5 million people flocked to the obamacare website, then on Thursday they admitted it was just 645,000.
Republicans will defend the rights of gun owners who slaughter Americans, but have no problems taking health care away from the victims of mass shootings and the rest of the US. And they wonder why they lost so terribly last night elections.
Have you seen what Kimmel did as soon as Trump left? this is genius! and sad, seeing how many don’t get the joke, but at least folks get their healthcare… genius! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlZNmtZdTlg
Because we sent out mass communications to people whose plans were going to not be offered in the marketplace this year or the prices were going to be increased to visit the website and check their rates, lol. These are not new, unique members to the marketplace, it’s been around since 2010 so this is 7 years worth of people we emailed to go log in and check because of Trump’s executive order. Not that shocking and the reason is DIRECTLY BECAUSE of Trump. This year’s OEP is really, really depressing to watch.
This is not a good sign as it means we have more people falling down to the bottom. Instead of people rising up they are settling down. This is what socialism does, it drags people down. Just like 90% of students attend public schools.
I signed up using an OCare website. I once tried getting ins. on my own prior to OCare. $400/month in premiums! Yeah, that was the old system. I’m looking at a quarter of that right now. Sometimes government does shit right
Hate to disagree with the guy about Social Security. It was enacted by President Franklin Roosevelt, not LBJ in the 1940s. Medicare came into place in the 1960s and you pay for it out of your social security benefits. It is NOT welfare, you pay all your working life for Social Security and then pay for the insurance that goes with it. Federal government wants to cut it so they can pull money out for the corporations to waste.
I’ve been on ObamaCare since it started. I think people are starting to realize that ObamaCare is the best option. It really is long-term. The more people that are on it, the cheaper it becomes.
And the president wants to gut this medical notion? Just grow from it…You have alot of cultures that have come to America over time and its not these civilians faults.
Well yes when something is under attack and it could be lost people want to back it and don’t want to lose it and rightly so in this case. The extent of the media explaining about Obama care has helped as well. And everybody should be signing up to it just to make sure they don’t destroy it.

The repeal effort turned out to be very effective advertising for Obamacare. It made people appreciate what they might lose if repeal went through.
This shows that people WANT their health care. They do NOT want to lose it. Tonight’s massive Democratic victories show how unhappy the people are with the current administration.
