No, that can’t be right. People wanted ObamaCare. People needed ObamaCare. People demanded ObamaCare. Except in New Jersey, apparently, where only two people have signed up for it.
Fox New York has the story:
Just two people in New Jersey will begin receiving coverage Monday under new plans created by federal health care reforms.
NJ Protect plans are available to those who have been without insurance for at least six months and submit evidence of pre-existing health conditions.
The state will receive $141 million in federal subsidies to cover claims that exceed the premiums paid by the beneficiaries.
Horizon Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Jersey spokesman Tom Vincz expects more people will enroll in the coming weeks.
He expects more people to enroll? No, he’s praying that people sign up for this fiscal fiasco.
The definition of fiasco is when everyone who signed up in the entire state can join the Fox reporter in the phone booth as he calls in his story.
