The law caters to the uninsured and underinsured, not the wealthy that like to pout about the change in their options. They don't want to participate in the market if they aren't required by the their state such as Massachusetts. They can pay for their services and expect aggressive debt collection if they don't. I mean, there just is no reason anymore. I would expect far less bankruptcies in the Middle Class with this law and a sincere ability for people to engage in upward movement in the USA's economic structure.

Meanwhile, private plans offered through troublesome online markets are expected to have enrolled a much smaller number of people.
Around 50,000 people so far have successfully enrolled in a private health insurance plan via HealthCare.gov, the Obamacare federal website, according to the Wall Street Journal and CBS News' confirmation from industry analysts....
The media is touting the fact Oregon hasn't signed up one person through their website yet. Well guess what? Oregon's website isn't up yet. Surprise, no one has a website to sign up through the internet. Evidently, Oregon never considered the internet the way to go immediately.

Though Oregon's health insurance exchange is not yet up (click here) and running, the number of uninsured is already dropping thanks to new fast-track enrollment for the Oregon Health Plan.
The low-income, Medicaid-funded program has already signed up 56,000 new people, cutting the state's number of uninsured by 10 percent, according to Oregon Health Authority officials.
Though the new exchange called Cover Oregon was originally intended to be used for Oregon Health Plan enrollment, the online marketplace doesn't work yet. Instead, new Oregon Health Plan members are being enrolled using a fast-track process that was approved by the federal government in August....
Then the media is asking now that people have signed up who made their first payment? They want this to fail. The payment, the amount and when it is paid is a security issue. Not only that, but, the bills most likely haven't even been generated yet. RATINGS. The negativity is about RATINGS.
It just goes to prove hatred and anger works to serve the media. Who's winning, who is losing. I am not surprised the President's approval ratings are lower than one would hope for. Why hope for polls at all? They are meaningless when tainted this deeply by propaganda.
