Number of uninsured Americans lowest in more than 5 years

Why is this inherently a good thing? Of course the figure will be low if people are being forced to buy insurance!

Not only that, the numbers are the lowest in 5 years, which means since 2009. We're not even back to where things were when Bush was president, and that wasn't with a force law.

What does that study say about cost? I'm sure it's higher.

It's too bad there isn't some rational explanation that might shed light on why there were so many more uninsured after 2008. Oh well!

Nearly everyone over age 40 or so has at least one or two "preexisting conditions"

That doesn't seem right to this 40 year old.  In fact, I'd be shocked if it was over 50%.

How is a pre-existing condition defined? Depending on how strictly, either figure could be true.
