[/quote] That is a lie. The gov. cannot take from your bank account, home, or anything else other than income tax refunds. If you plan your witholding correctly, there will never be a refund... [/quote] Unfortunately, it's not. Check up on any elderly who sign up for Medicaid with Medicare and they even go back five years looking for any transfer of assets to, for example, their children. This has been happening for some time now. Reality sucks, huh? . [/quote] uh no, that is medicare that will come after you home. I suggest you use google. Answers are right in front of your fucking face. medicaid > medicare. [/quote] aspe.hhs.gov/daltcp/reports/estaterec.htm‎ it is Medicaid but not as dire as he says [/quote]

But the imbalance -- if it does not even out in the months to come -- could create problems for private insurance companies which are relying on a major influx of new and healthy customers to make the system hum.
"There are a lot of elements of this law that have to work, that must work -- otherwise the whole thing collapses," the Cato Institute's Michael Cannon said. "They need -- need -- lots of healthy people to sign up for insurance through the exchanges."
Obama administration still hasn't provided figures on how many people have successfully enrolled through the federally run exchanges. Some, but not all, states have provided their own relatively up-to-date figures.
But for those that have, the lopsided numbers show Medicaid is getting the lion's share of enrollees.
