The numbers of Americans without health insurance has increased dramatically under Bush. Whereas in the late 90s only 14% of Americans did not have health coverage, that figure is now up to nearly 40%! This statement is utterly stupid on its face. Anyone who knows anything about the subject would realize immediately it is crap. Today's study looks at the percentage of Americans under age 65 covered by employer-provided insurance. Overall, it finds the number with such coverage dropped from 67 percent in 2001 to 63.4 percent in 2003, leaving 8.9 million fewer people insured. I think yo have your percentages screwed up. Further, even the numbers cited above are huge overstatements, since they conveniently leave the over-65 bracket out of the percentage base.
