DEADLINE TOMORROW: Obamacare Enrollments Lag Millions Behind.
With less than 24 hours to go until the critical Obamacare enrollment deadline, all eyes are on the Obama administration to see whether Democratic claims of a massive “Obamacare sign-up surge” will materialize.
I haven’t heard any such claims, could be because I can’t stand to listen to them talk! The key questions are:
Will the Obama administration have 3,500,000 million people in Obamacare by tomorrow’s deadline? Moreover, will 1,166,666 of those people belong to the critical “young invincibles” demographic?
The answer given by Wynton Hall (journalist)…
Probably not.
Of course, this melodrama will continue to plan out, rule changes and all..
Obama officials claim that the real enrollment surge is likely to occur before the March 31 deadline when the individual mandate’s financial fines and penalties kick in. However, last week the Obama administration announced it will offer “hardship exemptions” for some of the millions of Americans who have lost their health insurance due to Obamacare, thus prompting debate over whether additional exemptions and delays may be forthcoming.
Bottom line: if by tomorrow the administration has not enrolled 3,500,000 people — with at least one third of those being 18-34-year-olds — Obama will find himself scrambling to hit 7,000,000 paying Obamacare customers by the end of March.
And my prediction: Ain’t gonna happen. No way, no how. No matter how many rule changes, made without appropriate authority, they invent.
