Seems that 1% is overstated according to some figures. Too many. How about 14% of 43.9 million uninsured are non-citizens? Which is a little over 6 million people we are talking about. Out of 330 million.

See Brad Wright's article today about the "Po' white south" are the uninsured at Huffington Post website. He quotes the Urban Institutes policy briefs numbers involved in the healthcare debate in his article.
