>> Are you claiming there is no such thing as people filing for bankruptcies because medical bills pushed them over the edge?

No. I am claiming, correctly, that Warren, et.al., grossly overstated the number to manipulate the American public into believing it is a bigger problem than it is (this was, course, before it was known the legislation would do essentially nothing to prevent it).

I'm not claiming she is an idiot. The authors of that study knew precisely what they were doing. It was propaganda with not even a remote relationship to the facts. It was far worse than what Gruber did -- Gruber, after all, told the truth. This woman blatantly, knowingly, misrepresented the facts.
