Turner: 10 Obamacare Predictions for 2014

Despite Kathleen Sebelius's PR campaign to promote Obamacare, 2014 is not going to be a good year for Obamacare, argues Grace-Marie Turner, president of the Galen Institute.  She suggests 10 ways "things will continue to deteriorate" for the law, among them:
  • Many who signed up for OCare plans won't pay the premiums so will never be insured.
  • Others who begin paying premiums early in the year will stop paying and drop out.
  • Many uninsured won't bother enrolling at all.
  • Tens of millions will see employer insurance plans cancelled beginning in 2014.
  • Sicker and older OCare enrollees will outweigh younger 'healthies', thus pushing premiums even higher in 2015.
  • Fewer insurance companies will participate in 2015.
  • Court cases will continue.
