2. There's a lot of pressure to keep that number as low as possible.
The same as unemployment numbers. So it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it was considerably higher than 47 million.

3. This one case shows how non-profit insurance for health care could really work.
It's simply unconscionable that anyone would go into debt as a result of accident or illness. Even more unconscionable is someone profiting from it. And even more so if they did absolutely nothing for the money they got.

4. This clip presents the assumption that health insurance is the answer
The country doesn't need health insurance - it needs health care for everyone!

6. The underinsured number in the millions as well.
I pay $600/ m for catastrophic only coverage with a $5K deductible.
I wish I could afford something resembling real insurance.
