Absolutely not true. They are millions behind in enrollment and even worse, the people they need to sign up the most, young adults, are avoiding it in droves.
Via The Hill:
President Obama said Friday that enough people have already signed up for ObamaCare that he is “confident” his signature legislative accomplishment will function properly.
“At this point enough people are signing up that the Affordable Care Act is going to work,” Obama said in a WebMD interview. “The insurance companies will continue to offer these plans. We already have 4 million people, over 4 million people, signed up.”
The president said he expects “a larger number” still to be enrolled by March 31.
“The pool is already large enough, the number of people who have signed up is large enough, i’m confident the program will be stable,” Obama said.
Obama’s confidence in the program comes despite indications that the administration will fall short of its initial enrollment targets.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) had originally projected that 7 million individuals would enroll in ObamaCare plans in the first year, although it backed away from those predictions after the early troubles with HealthCare.gov. The most recent CBO report projected that 6 million Americans would enroll, while the administration now declines to set a specific enrollment goal.
