The report shows that the number of uninsured children has decreased by 2 million since the creation of SCHIP and recent expansions in public programs. . |
But yet the number of uninsured has risen above that covered. Hence it has failed to do what it was designed to do..[/quote] But yet the number of uninsured has risen above that covered. Hence it has failed to do what it was designed to do.

So we are in agreement that SCHIP, a government administered health care program, is not wasteful, fraudulent or mismanaged, other than falling short of keeping up with more and more working families loosing their private health insurance.

No absolutely not.
So how well has SCHIP done since Jan 09 when the Demoncrats and Obama took over and more than 2 million are out of work. The numbers are still out there, but I doubt SCHIP provided for all those familes, hence hundreds of thousands have no healthcare. Right? Or did SCHIP cover those who have lost jobs since The Dems took over?
