ObamaCare - was doomed from the beginning. Why? Is he secretly working for a single payer system or is he really this dumb?

Nov 11 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's healthcare reform has reached only about 3 percent of its enrollment target for 2014 in 12 U.S. states where new online health insurance marketplaces are mostly working smoothly, a report released on Monday said.

States with functioning exchanges have signed up 49,100 people compared with the 1.4 million people expected to be enrolled for 2014, according to the report by healthcare research and consultancy firm Avalere Health.

With enrollment in the federal HealthCare.gov website serving 36 states stalled by technical failures, the weak sign-ups for functioning insurance exchanges could be due to the administration's difficulty to promote the program as a success, Avalere said.

The government is due to release national enrollment figures for the month of October this week. Open enrollment ends March 31, 2014.

Supporters of Obamacare and health insurers fear that scant participation in the private insurance exchanges will prevent them from becoming a sustainable new individual market, including the right mix of young and healthy members to offset coverage for older, sick people. . . . . .  finish reading here at Reuters.com. 

Editor’s notes:  Understand just how bad this [ObamaCare] thing could be.  If enrollments stay down and cancellations (5 million thus far and counting) continue on present curves,  the Administration and the insurance geniuses who dreamed up this mess, may see 15 million Americans without insurance with less than 200,000 folks signing up for this program beginning with January 1, 2014.    At present,  with 5 months remaining until the deadlines are reached,  the Obama Administration needs to see 1.4 million enrollees per month,  sign up for this program, and, most of them (if not all) need to be healthy Americans.  Impossible  . . . . .  in fact,  this was impossible from the “get go.” 

What I am saying is this:  in order to hit the sign-up goals for ObamaCare,  the Administration would have had to sign-up 1.16 million persons per month,  beginning with the first of October. 

Knowing what we now know and assuming this effort at healthcare reform is a serious effort,  the legislative project was doomed from the beginning;  its goal - unreal, its ability to pay for itself – a fantasy, its promised protections for all insured Americans – a lie.
