Obamacare squeaks by with a passing grade -- but could still fail

lundi 31 mars 2014

FILE This March 11, 2014 file image from video released by Funny Or Die shows President Obama with actor-comedian Zach Galifianakis during an appearance on "Between Two Ferns," the digital short with a laser focus on reaching people aged 18 to 34. The president urged young people to sign up for the new health care plan through an appearance posted Tuesday, March 11, 2014, on the comic website Funny or Die, bypassing TV talk show titans like Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kimmel for an online audience. Ronald Reagan used to say the nine most terrifying words in the English language were: "I'm from the government and I'm here to help." Obama is offering Americans his own twist on the message: He's from the government and he needs your help. Frustrated by the inability of Congress and the White House to reach agreement on much of anything, the president is increasingly relying on his powers of persuasion to cajole people and organizations to help tackle some of the country's big problems _voluntarily. (AP Photo/Funny Or Die, File) Hitting the threshold of 6 million enrollees gives the Obama administration a plausible basis for saying the Affordable Care Act is working more or less as expected.
