Confirmed: Not Thousands, But Millions Are Losing Their Health Insurance Due To Obamacare

It is somewhat comforting to know that my  family has a lot of company. I have seen stories from various states about  thousands of people losing their coverage, but since I had already published a  post about similar numbers, I didn’t point this out. I’ve been waiting for  someone to calculate how many people in the entire US have lost their  insurance. 

The Weekly Standard found it. 

According to health policy expert  Bob Laszewski, roughly 16 million Americans will losetheir current  plans because of Obamacare: 

“The U.S. individual health insurance market  currently totals about 19 million people. Because the Obama administration's  regulations on grandfathering existing plans were so stringent about 85% of  those, 16 million, are not grandfathered and must comply with Obamacare at their  next renewal. The rules are very complex. For example, if you had an individual  plan in March of 2010 when the law was passed and you only increased the  deductible from $1,000 to $1,500 in the years since, your plan has lost its  grandfather status and it will no longer be available to you when it would have  renewed in 2014. 
“These 16 million people are now  receiving letters from their carriers saying they are losing their current  coverage and must re-enroll in order to avoid a break in coverage and comply  with the new health law's benefit mandates–– the vast majority by January  1. Most of these will be seeing some pretty big rate increases.” 

I note that the mainstream media is not refuting these facts, but simply  ignoring them or making light of them. I’ve  asked if media will ever compare the pain that the Affordable  Care Act is causing to the help it is (allegedly) giving to some. So far they  haven’t seemed interested. 
Now would be a good time to revisit the  Liar-In-Chief from 2009 :

Get that? “ No matter what you’ve heard… if you like your  plan you get to keep your plan” 
President Obama was not merely making false promises; he was  singling out other people who were trying to warn Americans what would happen  under Obamacare . He was attacking those people as unreliable. Obama and  the Democrats are still attacking the same people today, even though everyone  knows he was lying across the country and those people he told Americans not to  listen to were stating the obvious  truth. 

John McAfee, founder of anti-virus company McAfee, Inc, on the Obama Care exchanges

On Fox Business  Network’s “Cavuto” on Wednesday, October 2nd, computer programmer and founder of  McAfee, Inc. John McAfee said the online component of Obamacare “is a hacker’s  wet dream” that will cause “the loss of income for the millions of Americans who  are going to lose their identities.” 
For starters, McAfee  said the way it is set up makes it possible for fake websites be set up to fool  people to think they’re signing up for Obamacare. 

“It’s seriously  bad,” McAfee said. “Somebody made a grave error, not in designing the program  but in simply implementing the web aspect of it. I mean, for example, anybody  can put up a web page and claim to be a broker for this system. There is no  central place where I can go and say, ‘OK, here are all the legitimate brokers,  the examiners for all of the states and pick and choose  one.’” 
“Instead, any hacker  can put a website up, make it look extremely competitive, and because of the  nature of the system — and this is health care, after all — they can ask you the  most intimate questions, and you’re freely going to answer them,” he continued.  “What’s my Social Security number? My birth date? What are my health  issues?” 

According to McAfee,  there’s not a quick fix — and as long as it set up this way, it could be a  playground for computer hackers. 

“Here’s the problem:  It’s not something software can solve,” McAfee continued. “I mean, what idiot  put this system out there and did not create a central depository? There should  be one website, run by the government, you go to that website and then you can  click on all of the agencies. This is insane. So, I will predict that the loss  of income for the millions of Americans who are going to lose their identities —  I mean, you can imagine some retired lady in Utah, who has $75,000 dollars in  the bank, saving her whole life, having it wiped out in one day because she  signed up for Obamacare. And believe me, this is going to happen millions of  times. This is a hacker’s wet dream. I mean I cannot believe that they did  this.”
