ObamaCare Exchanges : States Opt Out

Is there hope for some relief from the disaster that is ObamaCare? Just what we need now is another mandate that will burden us with trillions of more dollars of debt.

Truly, Mr Obama and his people are not interested in solving our problems, they are only interested in "fundamentally changing America". Progressive socialism means dependency and poverity.

National Center for Policy Analysis
In spite of the President's reelection, the future of Obamacare is not certain.


•The greatest threat to Obamacare has always been Obamacare itself because it is unstable, unpopular and expensive.

•The two main Obamacare entitlements (subsidized health insurance exchanges and Medicaid expansion) are both subject to state action and approval, giving states tremendous power to nullify Obamacare's two core programs.

•Already, 19 states have said they will not create health insurance exchanges. About a dozen states remain undecided.

•In a sign of apparent desperation, the Obama Administration told states that they will have another month to decide to create state health insurance exchanges, even though the original deadline was November 16.

•Support for repealing Obamacare seems to be waning, but more Americans than ever are using high-deductible health plans.

•The House Ways and Means Committee sent a subpoena to HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius demanding to know how taxpayer dollars are being used to promote Obamacare. There will be hearings next month.
