Presumably, most are self-employed or employees of small businesses....productive members of society.

Add the 32% in households between $25-50K (productive, but many still below the poverty level) and that brings it to at least 70% of the uninsured that are in working families.
Thanks for the graph. It's about time! Does that say how many choose not to purchase insurance? What again is the "poverty level"?
