If you do a search for Obamacare success, you will find about fifty stories citing the exact same person who apparently did not qualify for subsidies. Of course, the uniformity of these reports underscores the bias and laziness of the MSM. With just a little bit of effort, it is easy to find folks who can successfully obtain insurance under the ACA, particularly with the recent improvements in the system.

HENRICO, VA (WWBT) -
There has been constant backlash with Obamacare everywhere you turn, from website problems to ridicule by some who are against President Obama's Affordable Care Act.
You won't here many complaints from Christopher Early. He was one of the few who was able to successfully apply and select a healthcare plan.
"I think it was about eight times that I, like, filled out an application and was coming up with errors - but on the ninth time, it finally got completed," Early said.
Early holds in his hand the first invoice from a new healthcare provider. He says marketplace coverage worked best for him while he completes the paralegal studies program at J. Sargent Reynolds Community College.

(17,387 posts)...someone gets their catastrophic care coverage with no preventive care cancelled, and the media features them. Remember Deborah Carvalho, who an independent analysis determined that she qualified for better and cheaper coverage? She is still making the rounds on talk shows complaining about being an Obamacare victim. My take is that we need to highlight the "boring" stories of early adopters getting coverage. Even better, as the website improves, these stories become more commonplace.
