I think the “subsidized” part includes that.
Imagine that - 4 to 1 ration of takers vs payers have signed up.
Who would have foreseen this, besides anyone that isn’t a “liberal”?

You got it flipped - it’s 75-80% that are subsidized in the numbers above.
That means only 20-25% are paying the freight.

Set up a lemonade stand with a sign displayed:
Lemonade for Sale
Prices -
Old sick people - $.05
Poor people - Free
Young Health People - $10/glass
Guess who drinks lemonade until the stand goes out of business?

USA Today had a big breaking news saying that 9 million have signed up for Obamacare. How can 9 million be that stupid?

There likely is not 9 million stupid people.
There are likely 9 million that checked it out. Don’t forget 5 million lost their health insurance and likely did the only thing they could. Sign up to get prices.
The stupid ones that continued and bought a policy.
