How Many Americans Haven’t Health Insurance?

                       
The left in this country claim 45 million Americans have no health insurance. There is lots of doubt about this figure. Many others claim, with reasonable authority, that this includes illegals, those in between jobs that offer insurance, and folks who are not interested and wish to self-insure.
                       
But as with many of their claims, facts are not important; the left prefers to substitute good intentions with fact as the norm.
                       
Yet, if that number is considered, that is only about 15% of the population. And, in truth, we are looking at true need in only about 5% of the population. They can be handled without a massive restructuring of our national economy. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
