And of course all these stories are about the (very small) individual market, which was the most dysfunctional and unfair area in health insurance prior to the ACA. The fact that there were so many uninsured is proof of that since so many of them couldn't find or afford insurance in the indiv. market. For every person getting a cancellation letter on their (likely inadequate) individual policy there are many more who are being shut out of getting (the newly expanded because of ACA) Medicaid because their state happens to be run by the GOP. THey aren't as newsworthy because 1. They are poor and 2. They aren't getting a letter they can wave at a TV camera....they are just continuing to get nothing.
