They will still be unemployed beyond the age of 26 in this economy. They will need the healthcare as they age. How is insuring up to the age of 26 on mommy and daddy's policy helpful to the majority of Americans?

How is it harmful. Plus we end up paying for the insured.

It's not harmful. It is fairly useless as young people have very low utilization of medical insurance.

Wow, really. You are making a great assumption. Or do you base this on fact.

My point was a response to a poster who stated it was not harmful. I agreed. It is useless, not harmful.

In any event, no TP = no 60th vote. TP deserves due credit for making this happen, for those of you who like Obamacare.

It happens, when they are in college or graduate school.
