I claim nothing. It is what's been widely reported. I am simply relaying that reporting.

CURL: We overhauled U.S. health care
President Obama said it in August 2009: “I don’t have to explain to you that nearly 46 million Americans don’t have health insurance coverage today. In the wealthiest nation on Earth, 46 million of our fellow citizens have no coverage.â€

He said it dozens more times, including in June 2013: “We are not a nation that accepts nearly 46 million uninsured men, women and children.â€

The Obama administration pumped the number with official reports. The White House Council of Economic Advisers said, “Perhaps the most visible sign of the need for health care reform is the 46 million Americans currently without health insurance.†The Census Bureau got in on the act, too, saying some 48 million Americans lacked health insurance.
Huh, that's fine, but the 46 million includes millions of undocumented immigrants and millions of people who live in states in which conservatives didn't expand Medicaid.

Lol, this isn't about me. This question is one of knowing or not knowing. Any person not knowing something doesn't change the reality of situation.

I say to all go get some knowledge for yourself. Again it was widely reported. It won't be difficult to find.

Backtracking on your "10 million" comment now ?

Obama said 46 million CITIZENS right up until he said 8 million.
There is the key word so it does not include the illegal aliens.

are you arguing that we should have either solved the problem completely or done nothing at all ???? That idea seems incredibly moronic to me.


Changing that system actually saved our nation money, so what exactly is your point ?

Hardly "highly successful".
4.2 million more people being insured than previously uninsured is successful.

You want that number to be more, so do i , but that doesnt change the fact that 4.2 million is better than 0.
