Not entirely true. I’ve seen more stories of people who can and are paying premiums now signing up to Obamacare to get subsidies so they don’t have to pay as much or pay anything anymore. Obama doesn’t juat want to redistribute wealth to the have-nots. He and the left want “income equality” for all. Which means as long as Obama thinks he can get enough money from the “rich,” a lot of people are going to get handouts whether they’re “poor” or not. This also helps buy votes for Democrats, and they need a bigger constituency than just the “poor.” So money will be spread around to higher and higher income groups.
I think many of those sign-up stories are fabricated by Dem ops to make Obamacare look good. My brother posted his “great” Obamacare package to Facebook and he’ll never even try to get medical insurance.
