Re: [FairfieldLife] Obama Says Reject Voices Warning of Tyranny
Almost 80 million people with employer health plans could find their coverage canceled because they are not compliant with ObamaCare, several experts predicted. Their losses would be in addition to the millions who found their individual coverage cancelled for the same reason.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Obama Says Reject Voices Warning of Tyranny
The 93 million I mentioned earlier was supposedly taken from the Federal Register. However I'm hearing it could be even worse. The 80 million you are referring to, I think, are 80 million policies and there are usually multiple people, families, on each policy. Many employers are going to find it cheaper to pay the penalty than buying insurance for their employees. The cancellation letters for these policies should be going out just before the elections unless the Democrats can figure a way to stop them or delay them till after the elections.

OK - let's say it is just half of that - 45 million, which sounds closer, anyway. It is a rigged game. Any policies that don't carry all the coverages that are now federally mandated, must be cancelled, as mine was, and reissued. It is not 'bad actors', as the prez is saying - It is federal law, which he signed into place. It gets better. Then, when the policy is reissued, surprise, now, more than double. Subsidies are only available on the more expensive plans, anyway. My choice, subsidized, or not, is basic insurance, with a $5000 annual deductible, for $560/mo. I'd have to spend almost $12,000, per year, before getting a dollar reimbursed. No thanks.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Obama Says Reject Voices Warning of Tyranny
It's probably closer to 80 million, but, it could be a lot more than that. It's been estimated that over 44 million Americans don't have medical insurance, for one reason or another, and another 38 million have less than optimum health care insurance. According to CBS News, two million people who had medical insurance have been dropped in the last month or two, so far. It's been estimated that 19 million people or 80%, who don’t have a company-hosted plan or insurance through the Medicare or Medicaid government programs may have to find new health coverage. From what I've read, only about 300 people have managed to sign up for Obamacare, so how many people does that make that now don't have adequate medical insurance? Lets do the math.

It's nowhere near that, doc. It's only people who have individual plans who are subject to it, and they're a very small percentage of the market.

RE: Re: Re: [FairfieldLife] Obama Says Reject Voices Warning of Tyranny
Well, to start with, even if that estimate weren't ridiculously high, it's not of the entire population, as you suggested at first, but only of those who have insurance through their employers. Now, Mike, despite what Fox News tells you, the government has no control over what private employers decide to do about insurance. I would imagine there would be a huge outcry from your Tea Party types if the government told these companies they couldn't drop their employee insurance plans. The government doesn't care if people get insurance through their employers, as long as it's up to ACA standards. The government has no incentive to force people onto ACA if they already have good insurance, so that claim is obviously false. ACA is for people who don't have decent, affordable insurance. The onus is on the companies who have no compunctions about leaving their employees high and dry. The fact is, though, that these people (however many of them there will be) will be able to get affordable policies through the exchanges because of ACA (without having to worry about preexisting conditions, of course, or losing their coverage if they lose their job or quit and move away or decide to start their own business and become a job creator). ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fairfieldlife@yahoogroups.com wrote: Better start watching something other than MSNBC Judy.
