30 million new does not equal 30 million new payers. Approximately 10-12 million will be added to Medicaid.

Also, the government does not allow for options that could reduce cost. For example, I am willing to take the risk that I do not need drug rehab coverage.

Here is a recent article, that frames the argument from a freedom perspective, but there are situations that affect cost.

I would have appreciated a health bill that both parties agreed to. Instead we got a one sided plan with all the goodies, with a cost that I believe was understated.
