just trying to draw a picture of the difference in need between that group and the group on Medicaid. The size of their slice of this tax cut will probably not make a big splash in their wallet yet possibly losing coverage under Medicaid can be a matter of life and death to many more than 400 people.

Thanks for posting on my thread.
