I don’t understand how they can claim victory over a bogus sign-up number. We still don’t know how many previously uninsured people are now insured; we don’t know if anyone has paid yet; we don’t know if anyone has even tried to use this magical insurance and actually received health care.
We don’t know if this has saved anyone or the country any money (in fact we are sure it has cost trillions already). It’s totally premature celebration.
7 million out of 320 million would represent 2.1875%. Now that is hardly something to celebrate. But take into account that these 7 million include people who are not actually signed up and paying, in addition to those who were forced to drop their old plans and sign up for this monstrosity, and the true number of people who have signed up could easily be anywhere from 0.3125% to barely 1%.
