*When employers laid off Americans by the millions during the Great Recession (PDF) of 2007-2009, people didn't just lose their jobs. They lost their health insurance, too, and the number of uninsured swelled during those lean years. Now it seems the Affordable Care Act has reversed that damage: The number of Americans who report being uninsured is at its lowest level since 2008, according to a new Gallup poll...* Is this a big win for Obamacare? John Iadarola (host of TYT University, and Common Room), Jayar Jackson (TYT producer), and Desi Doyen (host, Green News Report) break it down on The Young Turks. *Read more here from John Tozzi at Bloomberg Business Week: http://www.businessweek.com/articles/2014-04-07/after-obamacare-number-of-uninsured-hits-5-year-low ********** The Largest Online News Show in the World.
