I'm not sure of my opinion here. I agree that 82,000 seems a bit high.

You can't fault the New York Times, at least they are consistent in trying
to push socialism on us!
Unfortunately, the people who benefit from socialism is our society are
seniors. I would much rather give health care to children, but they don't

Oh, that's BS. Bush is taking a stand at stopping the ever-expanding
notion of Universal Health Care and he should. This proposal expands
the coverage from poor *children* to most kids AND their families.
