With 10% unemployment - where will 30 million find the money - the public option is free to them - paid for by the rest of us - that's the entire point of this plan - to provide insurance cheaply to some and free to the rest.

There are a lot of folks that make good money that don't buy insurance. Those folks will be required to buy insurance. It's not all low income people... and it won't be cheap.

You realize that, assuming you are insured, health insurance is usually in the top three of your lifetime expenses? Even when it's a "free" benefit from your employer.
