Remember how one of the biggest GOP attack memes on Obamacare was enrollees not actually paying their premiums? Sure, they might be “signing up,” but were they actually writing that check when it counts?

Did people pay in significant numbers? Yes. Is a death spiral looming? For this and myriad other reasons, no.
