@ByronYork The key number is net newly insured. That would be total insured & paid minus number who lost coverage because of Obamacare.

@brithume by my count, that's less than 1 million. -
Could well be but hard to calculate since we don't know how many have paid. “
@guypbenson by my count, that's less than 1 million.” -

@guypbenson@brithume@ByronYork So#Obamacare cost $960 billion for a net gain of only 1 million newly insured. That's awesome.#sarcasm -
Even more awesome? Could have cut every American a multi-million dollar check for less

@KatiePavlich As I've said for years, imagine how simple a $10,000 health insurance voucher would have been@guypbenson@brithume@ByronYork - 1 more reply

@ByronYork Why does it matter if they have paid now if insurance is not valid until April 1st? Shouldn't that question be asked after 31st? -
@goodnewsgoddess no, the 5mil includes people that signed up since Oct 2013. Insurance begins 30 days after. So it's a valid question. -
@nomad31 I highly doubt folks who signed up in October but who have not paid are being counted in the current numbers. -
@goodnewsgoddess Obama admin has said that they "don't know" how many of the 5 mil have actually paid. -
@nomad31 Link please? Again, I highly doubt that is the case for early enrollees. -
@goodnewsgoddess it's a well established fact, hence the intense criticism. They're only counting people who signed up, not who paid -
@nomad31 Still waiting for a link because I have heard nothing about this and I am pretty well-informed. - 16 more replies

@ByronYork and since we're celebrating this number, how many are being subsidized? It isn't hard to give away free stuff. Marketing 101.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@ByronYork I do not know why Congress cannot demand the number - ask insurance companies - number is bad or they would share#anotherbiglieThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
