Interesting that a larger percentage of whites don't have insurance than Blacks or Hispanics.

Who are the uninsured?

Full-time employed, high-school educated, natural born whites who are unmarried and have no children.

That report, regardless of the findings, will get absolutely no mention or traction in the debate, because quite frankly, the ability to comprehend and apply what it says is beyond most people, and is easily eclipsed by feel good, but inaccurate, "real life" stories presented over the TV by the President.

Also, I'd like anybody looking at the PPT to note that public insurance meant you were more likely to die that being involuntarily uninsured.

Clearly, expanding CMS to all citizens really is the best way to curb costs; everybody'll die! :razz:

That doesn't mean it's a waste of time, imo. It just means we're a nation of incompetents.
