You claimed that the PO would save money. I challenged that assertion, which you now agree was an false assertion. My purpose was to disabuse you of it and set the record straight.

The PO was only introduced in the context of the bill that just passed, one goal of which was to cover "everyone". I didn't think I had to explain that.

Comparing savings in the PO within a plan that covers an additional 30M or so people to the status quo is meaningless...yet you stood by the comparison as valid. We shouldn't be arguing obvious points such as this one.
