Ramesh Ponnuru

My Washington Post column a few days ago:
In 2012, after Obamacare had passed and been modified by a Supreme Court ruling, the CBO thought that in 10 years, Medicaid, along with the Children’s Health Insurance Program, would enroll 43 million people. The actual number was more than 87 million, and it had already reached 70 million before the pandemic sent enrollment shooting up.
Timothy McBride, a Washington University professor (and “an influential health policy analyst and leading health economist shaping the national agenda”) responds:
What Ramesh Ponnuru isn’t saying is that we had a PANDEMIC in 2020! That’s why Medicaid numbers rose
Maybe I should have written the word in all caps?
