Can�t say I�m surprised. You?

According to Gallup, �After four years of Affordable Care Act implementation, the percentage of adults with no health care insurance has hit 12.2 percent�

So is that an increase or a reduction? The linked article continues:

�In the last quarter of 2016, the percentage of uninsured hit a record low of 10.9 percent. A year later, in the last quarter of 2017, the percentage of uninsured increased by 1.3 points�the largest single-year increase Gallup has seen since it began tracking the measure in 2008.�

Based on US population of approximately 320 million, each 1-percentage point increase to the uninsured rate is about 3.2 million people. Do the math.  The number of uninsured Americans increased by more than 4 million just at one enrollment - 2017!  (For any progressives who may struggle with math, 3.2 x 1.3  = 4.1). Don't forget the premiums for 2017 were set B.T. - Before Trump.  

Also note that after 4 years of Obamacare, and despite the �mandate�, Americans age 26-34 have the highest  uninsured rate = 20.1%.   Can�t say that�s a surprise either.
