That's the argument that you should be making. But you won't. Because you are dishonest. Along with Obama.
Actually, it is about both. If you had bothered to read just a few posts earlier, you would have seen that I DID make that argument, as well as the argument that it provides cost savings.

"Even ASSUMING it doesn't save any money, it certainly is a better overall result than a world without preventative care (quality of life improves, length of life improves, etc), so this strikes me as a bit of a desperate argument on your part."
