If the same thing had happened prior to the ACA he would have had to file bankruptcy. What would the Republican plan be for this guy who is uninsurable?
You seem to have missed the part about $407,000 AFTER signing up through an exchange, DUE TO Ocare.

Yeah, GREAT plan, libs.

Bet we can add Nevada to the list.

GREAT!

As a business owner I am saving thousands each month by supplementing my employees directly and having them enroll in the exchange. They are getting better insurance for less money and I am saving thousands.

Could not have worked out better.

This is typical of many of the stories I have read.

Our government doesn't know who's paid and who hasn't. They have no idea. Nobody is in control. They exchanges still don't work, and the insurance companies cannot do anything either, because the back end part of the Exchanges hasn't been built yet.

We're screwed folks. Don't give these Democrats any more power in November. Remove them from office. They did this to you. Never forget.

XEROX leaves man owing $407,000.

Not Obamacare.

Not the insurance companies.

Not the state of Nevada.

XEROX set up Nevada's website. For some reason, they have premiums going to Xerox which is then supposed to forward the payment to an insurance company.

XEROX messed up.

The back end works. I, and many others, have signed up, paid, and are covered under the ACA.

No...he's actually supposed to work for US. If he WAS working for a company, his no-good butt would have been canned a LONG time ago.

Obamacare is a huge SUCCESS. Remember, the purpose of Obamacare was to hire an incremental 80,000 IRS agents who will enforce the regulations surrounding Obamacare. Those 80,000 new IRS agents must join the National Treasury Employees Union, NTEU: The Union for Federal Employees, one of the most extreme left-wing unions in the nation. Those 80,000 new IRS agents pay union dues, and the NTEU funnels those dues to Democratic candidates for election in exchange for pledges to raise the wages, gold-plated pensions & Cadillac health care for NTEU members.

So see -- Obamacare is a huge SUCCESS.

Because XEROX shouldn't take responsibility for their mistakes?
