WASHINGTON — Even as President Barack Obama sold a new health care law in part by assuring Americans they would be able to keep their insurance plans, his administration knew that tens of millions of people actually could lose those their policies.
“If you like your private health insurance plan, you can keep your plan. Period,†Obama said as he pitched the plan, the unqualified promise he made repeatedly.
Yet advisers did say in 2010 that there were large caveats and that anyone whose insurance plan changed would lose the promised protection of being able to keep existing plans. And a report in 2010 said that as many as 69 percent of certain employer-based insurance plans would lose that protection, meaning as many as 41 million people could lose their plans even if they wanted to keep them and would be forced into other plans. Another 11 million who bought their own insurance also could lose their plans. Combined, as many as 52 million Americans could lose or have lost old insurance plans.
The Tea Party still has Medicare, Tricare, VA, Medicaid and all their disabilities. Its a wonder they can count all their checks they have coming in and still have the time to complain about the ACA. Maybe they should be thanking Obama for the continuing disability checks and Medicare coverage instead of complaining about socialism which they are a beneficiary of.

I have asked you before, how does the general public have Tricare and the VA?
SO it's only 6, still? Even after 30+ days....WOW...............
It's worse than what you say....thanks for backing me up....
6 is the only number I've ever heard. I don't know if I backed you up, but If you're happy, I'm happy.
