I guess one thing I missed saying in the last post was that if medicaid covered all people classified as poor, then it would be reasonable to say that there is no reason for individuals in America to be uninsured but, as I quoted in a prior post:

"Medicaid does not provide medical assistance for all poor persons. Even under the broadest provisions of the Federal statute (except for emergency services for certain persons), the Medicaid program does not provide health care services, even for very poor persons, unless they are in one of the designated eligibility groups."
