>> The $1.35 trillion net cost will result in 'between 24 million and 27 million' fewer Americans being uninsured I think the article is a kind of "hit piece", but the above item is the big takeaway -- it was supposed to "cover" 32 million people and they have now dropped that by 1/4 or more (now giving the number to be covered as "a maximum of" 24-27 million, which probably means less than 24 million, a 25% drop). Yet, costs of the program aren't dropping by 25%. To me, that should be the takeaway -- the average cost of covering a person has gone up dramatically. Also, because they fail to consider "dynamics", the fact that these 25% have to be handled in ERs and through other expensive arrangements is not taken into consideration. It does look serious and it is hard to see the positive although the liberal media outlets are doing so.
