Trouble is brewing in Washington as those who still consider legitimate the national healthcare takeover known as Obamacare try to figure out which enrollees are even eligible for coverage. A new report issued by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) admits that nearly 1.3 million Obamacare enrollees, or about 16 percent of the overall total, cannot be verified for legal status in the U.S. — in other words, most, if not all, of them are illegal immigrants rather than American citizens.
The shocking figures can be found on page 11 of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) report, entitled Marketplaces Faced Early Challenges Resolving Inconsistencies with Applicant Data. According to the figures, 1,295,571 “inconsistencies” — this is a politically correct way of implying missing or fraudulent data — found on Obamacare applications involved issues of citizenship, national status or lawful presence in the U.S., meaning applicants did not or could not verify this important information.

The only way to *fix* this debacle is to trash the whole damn thing. It should have never been shoved down our throats to begin with. It started with a lie, and will take an endless line of lies to keep it going.

“The Federal marketplace was generally incapable of resolving most inconsistencies,” admits the report, noting that a large percentage of these faulty applications will likely never be resolved, at least not until the eligibility verification system becomes operable
Each applicant can have multiple inconsistencies. Inconsistencies do not necessarily indicate that an applicant provided inaccurate information or is enrolled in a qualified health plan or is receiving financial assistance through insurance affordability programs inappropriately.

So, they did a study to determine the accuracy of applicants. (Great idea!) NATIONWIDE. They found inconsistencies and they are working to resolve them.
This is news?

The sooner Obama and the Democratic party understands we do not live in a socialist society, the better off we all will be.

As much as I would love to see this trashed....what about all the millions of people who are now on unACA?
ACA gets trashed....and they are screwed.
People who through no fault of their own got dropped from their insurance....and all the others legitimately on unACA.
