Obama has never claimed it would be free healthcare, just universally available at a cost.

There's a claim it would be cheaper by forcing those who don't need coverage or don't want it into the insurance pools. That lowers individual costs for some - only for those who want that coverage, not for everyone! - but does not lower overall national costs.

The cost estimates are certainly bogus, enormously so. They assume that people who get insurance will use no more services than they used when they had no insurance. This is absurd: anyone paying hundreds of dollars per month for insurance they didn't have before is going to milk it for every penny.

(remember, the insurance isn't free. Typically the employer picks up a big chunk or the cost, but a lot is from a benefit column on your paycheck. And if you don't have an employer to cover part of the cost, you must pay it all yourself)
