Is Diogenes Still Searchng?

Is Diogenes still looking for truth? Does truth truly exist? Let's try truth in Health Care and especially the progress of the ACA.

According to the WaPo:

By mid-November, the 14 state-based marketplaces reported data showing enrollment has nearly doubled from last month, jumping to about 150,000 from 79,000, according to state and federal statistics. The nonprofit Commonwealth Fund, which has been tracking the data, called the most recent numbers “a November enrollment surge.”

But one must look at the source of this good news. The source, the Fund so named above, is headed by one of the ACA principals, and brother of a Democrat Senator, and manager of the deployment of the EHRs that have somewhat in my opinion made chaos of every medical practice.

The question is; why is the Government not giving out the data? The answer may very lie with the fact they seem to have the tendency to distort it anyway, just look at the employment data. One wonders, in my opinion, why one would ever believe these politically well connected entities.

Truth has taken a real beating lately.
