| Lulz. Obamacare already out of money for those with pre-existing conditions (Posted on 2/15/13 at 6:20 pm)
quote:
Tens of thousands of Americans who can’t get health insurance due to pre-existing medical problems will be blocked from a program designed to help them because funding for the measure is running low.
Obama administration officials said Friday that the state-based “high risk pools” set up under the 2010 health-care law will be closed to new applicants as soon as Saturday and no later than March 2, depending on the state.
What a failure

By the time 2016 rolls around, it will be politically impossible to do that.

However, they stressed that coverage for about 100,000 people who are currently enrolled in the high risk pools won’t be affected.

Frick this partisan piece of shite.
I still can't get over how the democrats pushed this abomination down our throats.
