They also estimate currently that between 5-8% of people that paid the first month, did not pay the 2nd month.

Of course until the White House puts out detailed records of all this, its all estimates based on polling of the various insurance companies.

And 3 million are, according to the OP site post, recent college grads staying on the parents' insurance longer. This doesn't seem like the population most in need of help in the health area.
