Uninsured Rate Drops Again
A new Gallup survey indicates that the rate for uninsured Americans dropped to 11.4% from April 1-June 30 of this year, from 11.9% from January 1 - March 31, 2015. The survey indicated that the rate has dropped nearly 6 percentage points from the end of 2013, as the implementation of the Affordable Care Act hit its stride. Fewer Americans without health insurance means reduced emergency room costs, which are passed on to Americans having health insurance policies. Bending the health care cost curve downward puts money back in the pockets of working families.
Of course, it's all Obama's fault.
