“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.”
And where does the subsidies come from?
Lie so that honest tax payers get stuck with paying your coverage.

The Urban League of Greater Dallas fired one person and suspended three others after a video from a conservative activist reportedly showed the workers encouraging health care applicants to lie.
An edited video was released Monday that seemingly shows so-called health care Navigators encouraging people to lie on forms signing up for health care to get better rates.
The video was released by Project Veritas, which was started by conservative activist James O'Keefe. O'Keefe gained notoriety for videos in 2009 that eventually brought down ACORN and was also arrested in 2010 for attempting to bug the phones in the office of Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu for a different project.
The Urban League said in a statement on Tuesday it "does not condone, nor would we ever sanction, misleading the public or any individual who seeks our assistance about any issue, and particularly in this case, an issue as critical as health care."
The Urban League said the person fired was a "part-time receptionist trainee" who was not authorized to speak on behalf of The Urban League or act as a Navigator and said it supports decertifying three "Navigators-in-training" in the video.
The Urban League also called for the unedited video of the incidents to be released. It said the undercover applicants were told the people they were speaking to were Navigators-in-training and "the full context of these comments is not reflected in the video."
Two Texas politicians said the video showed problems with the new health care law.
Senator John Cornyn called for the Navigators program to stop after he saw the video.
"This behavior is unacceptable, and is yet another broken piece of a deeply flawed system," Cornyn said in a statement.
A spokesman for Texas Attorney General and gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott said the news about the health care law continues to get worse.
"The Obamacare Navigator program is ripe for abuse," the spokesman said.

All of you who re-elected that buffoon are responsible for this. Hope you are proud of yourselves.
On another note, why do libtards keep trying to minimize this disaster. They keep saying it's only 5% that are getting canceled. I thought libtards cared about everyone?
Now they treat these findings by Veritas as "isolated incidents". It is clear that these navigators have been trained to inform people that they should not take into account any money that they did not report on their taxes in order to get the most subsidies possible. How many people have already been instructed to do this before they were caught? What this results in are policies with lower premiums than they should be and other people having to pay more to subisidze these liars.
The final premiums are going to be incorrect but that won't stop Democrats from claiming that people are saving money. It's a scam of the worst kind.
