ok I read the report, for the most part it seems objective. However I question the methodology behind the calculation as it only seems to account for the average cost per taxpayer, rather than the average cost per insured resident (which is a larger base and as a result, would cause the average cost figures to decrease).

I also question how they obtain some of their tax roll figures because they claim the average tax roll contribution for a person earning less than $12k is $2k. There is no way to reach this conclusion as people in this income bracket pay no income tax, qualify for property tax deferrment (if they owe any property tax) and receive sales tax credits that exceed the average amount of sales tax they actually pay. As a result these people on average have a negative tax contribution and as a result, cannot possibly be contributing to health care funding.
