>> Since those who have the highest potential for delivering tax money are usually also those who can least afford to pay for health care I don't think that premise is true. Those who can LEAST afford to pay for health care are those who earn minimal money and may receive free health care (Medicaid) and instead of PAYING taxes receive refundable credits (Earned Income Tax Credit), food stamps, and other kinds of welfare. Health insurance is expensive for the middle class -- who pay most of the taxes here -- but probably no worse than a house payment in most cases. Few people know how they'll be affected by Obamacare yet. All we know is what we knew before it was passed -- it was a huge lie perpetrated against the American public.
