$1.5 TRILLION

[one...two...tree 2,762]

That cost is misleading because with that projected cost should be the total amount of money that will no longer be spent on private insurance - actual money saved by companies and individuals. The real numbers that matter is how much we spend on health care in this country per person compared to a country like Canada.

The cost a every government program is lowballed to get it passed and it always winds up costing more once it starts.

All the evidence, including comparing the individual costs for healthcare in Canada and other countries with national healthcare have shown that we'd all be saving about $3,000 per person while insuring everyone. That's a pretty significant savings.
