- Reposted by Stuart ShapiroMany of the Medicaid proposals from House Republicans are technical and wonky, and will be difficult for the public to absorb. What won’t be difficult to absorb: CBO’s estimate that the changes will increase the number of people without health insurance by at least 8.6 million.

Dark, dark stuff.
