Sounds dramatic doesn't it? Well, first of all it is only 17% of the population. Is it worth ruining the future of the country for solving a problem for 17% of the people when there are far greater problems?
So, here is the real breakdown:
20 million are above average income and choose not to buy insurance.
14 million are poor and eligible for Medicaid
8 million are illegal aliens
That leaves 5 million that are truly without health insurance. That is only 1.8% of the population.
