The dismal ObamaCare “enrollments” reported yesterday tell only one small part of the larger ObamaCare train wreck. For those watching closely, there is an uncomfortable realization that ObamaCare is actually increasing the number of uninsured Americans.

Five millions and counting Americans across the country have received notices that their health insurance plans in the individual market are being canceled as a result of ObamaCare. These plans lack required benefits as outlined by the new law, such as maternity and contraception benefits, for example. Even though many plans were supposed to be “grandfathered” under the new law and exempt from cancellation, the Obama administration wrote regulations in 2010 that virtually guaranteed that only a scant few would be eligible for grandfathering.

The cascade of insurance cancellations has Democrats running for political cover. Ever since they read the Affordable Care Act and learned what is in it, they have been trying to make it stop.

The President has already made no fewer than 27 unilateral changes to ObamaCare. Today, he offered another one that attempts to reverse the millions of health inurance policies that have been cancelled as a result of ObamaCare because they were deemed “sub-standard.”

The president is calling on insurance, along with state regulators, to continue offering the cancelled policies. The communication to insurance commisioners also explicitly states that there will be federal funding to offset insurance losses.

Not only does this latest ploy do nothing to actually reverse the millions of cancellations that have occurred or offers a permanent fix to the many problems of ObamaCare, it sets the stage for laying blame of ObamaCare’s many failures on the insurance industry.

Instead of keeping his repeated promises that “If you like your health plan, you will be able to keep your health plan”, he is now offering Americans a new one:“If you like your health plan, you will be able to keep your health plan for one more year… until after the midterm elections.”
