Obamacare gives its insurance mandate teeth by taxes on those who don’t buy insurance and by fairly sizable tax subsidies for many who do. Those subsidies are set to total $100 million a year by 2017, Moore noted.

$100 million? That's about 30¢ for every person in the country. Maybe the author meant $100 billion.

Gotta be, otherwise "fairly sizable" is an idiotic statement.

I believe you’re right. $100 million is pocket change in the Beltway.

“$100 million? That’s about 30¢ for every person in the country. Maybe the author meant $100 billion.”

Hey, what’s the big deal about a few mis-statements and incorrectly cited facts among friends?
