Navigators at Work
The total v
alue of grants doled out for nonprofits and community organizations to hire navigators has topped $67 million nationwide, and some of the money is going to a group run by ACORN’s highly controversial founder…
“You lie because your premiums will be higher,” one navigator advises an investigator for O’Keefe’s Project Veritas, who tells the worker he sometimes smokes. “Don’t tell them that. Don’t tell ’em.”
The investigator then poses as a low-income worker at a university who has unreported cash income on the side, worrying about how that might affect his premium subsidies. That’s no problem for a navigator, who says, “Don’t get yourself in trouble by declaring it now.”
“Yeah, it didn’t happen,” another navigator says. One more chimes in: “Never report it.”
Well seeing as how these navigators probably aren’t vetted anyway, I’m not surprised they’re happy to encourage lying from the applicants.
Exactly. They weren’t subject to a background check on purpose. Lying and deceiving should have been part of the job description..
If they were vetted, the guidelines must have been “Can you read the forms?”
It’s impossible to vet these people successfully. There will always be flaws, but it seems like these are especially bad.
None of the workers are educated…I’m not sure if the workers misguided beliefs are intentional. What is intentional is the leaders and Battleground Texas’s involvement in the programs. Granted, they filed the same as anyone else to be involved in the process, it could just be smart politics.
““purely nonprofit. It’s not partisan, non-political.” But when Brian Pendleton of Enroll America is introduced at a speaking engagement, Enroll America is described as “the official group for the DNC”
Is this surprising to anybody?
They just want to believe!
This further strengthens the common theme of the ACA: deception.
And most recently, denial.
These types of stories just make me want to go home and crawl into bed and never come out.

A little extreme.. But certainly encourages people to lose even more trust in the ACA and all of those connected to it.
Obama is going to allow any agency, flawed or not, attempt to sign as many people up as possible for this awful plan. When it hits the fan, he’ll simply say he wasn’t informed that such actions were taking place. – As we’ve seen recently.
