Why would you think it would be a "whole lot" bigger?
Medicare currently has about 43 million people, Medicad has about 53 million, and people who are currently uninsured in the US are about 46 million, and it's estimated about 36 million of those uninsured people would be insured under a healthcare reform bill.
Of course, that doesn't count the Death Panel government officials taking over control (by armed goon squads) of the private health insurance of the other 290 million people in the country. They will do it by secretly sending death rays out from digital television converters to grannies over 70 years old. Tinfoil hats prevents that, you know.
I'm done. The paranoia is too scary.
