Philip Klein of the American Spectator presents a fairly detailed breakdown of the 46 million uninsured Americans number that is used as the rallying cry by proponents of universal health coverage.
Being that we may have over $600 billion for health care reform on the line, I think additional due diligence on this number would be helpful.
Update:
Came across this op ed piece from Ramesh Ponnuru (National Review) in this morning's New York Times. His hook - universal health shouldn't be the goal of health care reform; more affordable and portable health care should.
Update, Part II:
Keith Hennessey weighs in on the 46million figure as well...
