RUSH EXCERPT:
SHERMAN: “ObamaCare is working quite well. You have the majority of Americans getting their health coverage from their employer because employers are required to provide it.”
BOLLING: "But employers are pulling out of the system. Next are there could be, I don’t know, five or six states with only one insurer and then maybe down the road they may be no one to ensure these people.”
SHERMAN: “The majority of Americans get their policies through their employer, and the employers have dozens of choices.”
BOLLING: "15 to 20 million people they say are covered who don’t get insurance from their employer. Saying, we can’t afford to do this anymore, you are going to have no health care for those people.”
SHERMAN: “Certainly under the Republican plan you’re not going to have many insurance companies, probably none, because people aren’t required to have the insurance until they get their cancer diagnosis. Who is going to sell insurance at any reasonable price to a pool like that? ObamaCare is working well. We have an all-time high level of coverage, and the vast majority of people are getting that coverage through their employer. If you take away the employer mandate, they’re not going to have that coverage. Talk about tens and tens of millions of people.”
