I said to you (about the 47 million uninsured Americans)

<<OK prove it false with facts.>>

You said..

<<I am not finding it at hand.It has however been shown repeatedly that most Americans without health care coverage fall into the following groups: transitional (between jogs which provide coverage); young and healthy (won't pay exorbitant rates to subsidize the sick); voluntarily uninsured>>

Ok, those are the categories of the uninsured.""I am not finding it at hand.""So,no figure provided by you, on how many there are.I would assume that you are content to pick up the tab for the uninsured.

<<People who keep using deceptive figures about the uninsured are not furthering the discussion.>>

Since you can't come up with a reliable accurate figure, many would accept the 47 milllion as provided by the video in your next post.
