Before ACA the states had upper limits on income to get Medicaid. Many red States the limit was Zero. In New York state the limit was 800 dollars. In other wordsYOU didn't READ carefully as you are WONT to do Franco!!!So it's only 36 million LOL... Yep all they had to do to get Medicaid was quit their job and lose all their assets... Brilliant!Price is no object... That's why our system cost twice as much as anywhere else with 40000 deaths because they don't have insurance.Uhm ok show us on this list where they rank? The top 18 out of 20 are in the USA

Well Franco... the architect of Obamacare who called people like you that voted for ACA as the "stupidity of the voter"... also proved the fact that it is possible that many of the so-called 40,000 deaths were the 14 million people that didn't know they were eligible for Medicaid!
Read the following and explain to me once again... where did you people come up with 46 million uninsured AMERICANS???
Note the Gruber quote....

2) 14 million people were eligible BEFORE Obamacare for Medicaid and Gruber the architect of Obamacare admitted it AFTER Obamacare started!
Here READ Specifically where all the Obama administration needed to do was get these 14 million on MEDICAID... which THEY did AFTER destroying the health care industry with
ACA...

Everywhere you couldn't have a full-time job and get it so you and your sources are full of it as always... Now people can work full-time and get Medicaid. Crap GOP jobs that is...
AGAIN... you are NOT reading the material.
14 million WERE eligible.
The 2004 Census Current Population Survey (CPS) identified
44.7 million non-elderly uninsured in 2003.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association contracted with the Actuarial Research Corporation (ARC) to provide a detailed analysis
of the uninsured identified by the Census Bureau, which found:
- Nearly one-third were reachable through public programs, such as Medicaid and the SCHIP program for children (33% of 44.7 million is 14,751,000!)
DO you understand simple MATH Franco?
the Census bureau found these 14,751,000 WERE REACHABLE with MEDICAID and SCHIP!
- One-fifth earn $50,000 or more annually and may be able to afford coverage! (20% of 44.7 million is 9 million that could afford health insurance!!!)
Why are you ignoring these FACTS? ACA was never needed as again: there never were 46 million uninsured Americans!
A) 10 million not citizens B) 14,751,000 all needed to do was be registered!
