Vice President Biden used the word fact or facts is 26 times last night in the VP Debate.
Earlier this fall he asked FACT CHECKERS to check his FACTS.
So here is a FACT with substantiation that I want Biden/FACT CHECKERS et.al. to once and for all PROVE...
There are 8 million Americans that truly are UNINSURED .. NOT 50 million!
Proof:
10 million of the supposedly 50 million UNINSURED ARE NON-CITIZENS -
Source: Income, Poverty and Health Insurance Coverage in the United States: 2009 - Income & Wealth - Newsroom - U.S. Census Bureau
14 million of the supposedly 50 million UNINSURED are already covered by Medicaid!
sourceage 4 of the Blue Cross Report at this web page:http://coverageforall.org/pdf/BC-BS_Uninsured-America.pdf
18 million of the 50 million supposedly "UNINSURED".. ARE:
UNDER age 34
that can afford health insurance but
PAY THEIR HEALTH COSTS out of their OWN POCKET are counted as UNINSURED:
Source for the 18 million figure: CRISIS OF THE UNINSURED: 2009
AGE the annual per capita expenditure
20 $ 1,448 (So why should they pay a $2,000 penalty for not having insurance when they pay out less in real expenses???)
40 $ 2,601
65 $10,245
Source for above expenditures:: The Lifetime Distribution of Health Care Costs
Subtract 42 million of phony already covered, non-citizens and people that don't want or need from 50 million it is 8 million!
SO Obamacare was PASSED by JUST 6 YES votes!!
THINK how many thought there were 50 million and that what they were doing was HELPING!!!
BUT how many "YES" votes would there have been if the FACT that less then 2.5% of 310 million or 8 million need some health insurance coverage!
FACT CHECKERS... explain how it is HONEST to phony up the numbers BY COUNTING 42 million people that don't want, don't need and are not Americans?
