How to pay for it? Here is a good way, reduce federal salaries to the

Federal salaries are roughly 1.5X as high as comparable pvt jobs. Use
this data:

to arrive at the figure of about $49 billion directly saved and then
tack on another $49 billuion for benefits and pensions and then divide
by 10 million uninsured.

Good for starters. And then add a 20% surtax on all income only
refundable if you can show coverage for your family.
