PS: ObamaCare projected to leave 31 million Americans uninsured in 2024

Psss...here's something else from yesterday's CBO report. It's as if Obamacare is yet another Big Government takeover from beginning to end with no benefit for the American people...
IWF: Much of the rationale for passing the Affordable Care Act was that it would insure the uninsured.

The CBO report released yesterday found that, in addition to creating incentives to work less, the Affordable Care Act will leave 31 million Americans without health insurance by 2024.

Sean Davis recalls in a report on the CBO projections over at The Federalist that in a 2009 speech President Obama lamented before a joint session of Congress that “there are now more than 30 million American citizens who cannot get coverage.”

Well, I guess I’m with Jonah Goldberg: So What Was the Point of ObamaCare Again?
So while fundamentally transforming the health care industry that doesn't help the uninsured a bit, but does place one-sixth of the economy (integral to your life) in the hands of Washington bureaucrats, the Obama administration also disincentivizes people from joining the workforce to instead live off the welfare state, which by the way is running short on funds daily. And while we're at it, let's naturalize millions of unassimilated and illegal noncitizens who have no allegiance to America into the country!

From within, folks, from within.
