If essential benefits are no longer mandated, even people with employer-provided healthcare will lose benefits. If lifetimes limits are imposed, people will lose healthcare.

Give Marco Rubio this: His mathematics are sound. The U.S. population is about 321 million people, which means the 23 million human beings set to lose access to basic health insurance under the GOP's Obamacare repeal plan are, indeed, only about 7 percent of all Americans.
So — in terms of pure numbers — Rubio was right on when he defended the Republican plan by noting that just "a small percentage of the overall population" would be affected by his party's mad rush to dismantle Obama's health-care plan
What incredible nerve this dufus has. So, Marco, what percentage of the country are the elderly Cuban exiles, upon which Rubio and puppet Trump recently based the entire US-Cuban foreign policy? Like .00001%?

"...The CBO estimated the feds would save $2.45 billion over 10 years recently arrived Cubans were no longer treated automatically as refugees deserving of food stamps and other aid. About $1.05 billion would be saved from 2017-21, and another $1.4 billion from 2022-27...

How many of them are working taxpayers? How many will be paying higher effective tax rates than both the working insured and the non-working insured? You okay with that?

Yes. I don't think people are owed something simply because they exist.
