For the uninsured things are a completely different story. Uninsured doesn't mean homeless or an alcoholic or drug addict. Those terms are just uncalled for in this debate.

Monthly health care costs tripled and quadrupled practically over night for the uninsured looking to purchase. You also never mentioned anything about out of pocket expenses. You can see a doctor for around $70 a visit uninsured. What good is paying $300 a month and having to pay a $50 to $60 copay?

Lets talk about deductibles. $300 to $6500 practically overnight? That's not inflation.
