There is a lot of missing data. It would be nice to see the following:

1) Of those 7M, what fraction are getting a subsidy?

2) Of those7M, what fraction who didn't have insurance before, but now do, are paying the full premium themselves?

3) What is the average cost of insurance for those 7M, including subsidy, and how does that compare to the average cost of premiums for the fraction of this group who had prior insurance?

Unfortunately, it is not just the right wing who likes to quote distorted figures, many on the left don't want to know the actual reality either. I find that rather depressing. It is partly why the USA lurches from problem to problem: We are a country of denialism.
