ace...IMO, if you knew how the program works, you would not have posted this:

P.S. - Hey - DC, assume you live in NJ, have 3 children and have a household income of $60,000. Your employer offers coverage that would cost an additional $250 per month for your children with a $1,000 per year deductible and a $50 co-pay. Do you stay with your private employer plan for your children or do you opt for the NJFamilyCare?

Because persons who have employer coverage cannot opt out in order to be eligible for SCHIP...there are no shades of gray.
If the manner in which I corrected that fallacy appeared uncivil to you or others, I apologize.
In any case, the SCHIP will be reauthorized in the coming weeks and I think its a good thing....until Congress gets their act together and focuses on a better long term solution and that certainly wont happen until after the 08 election.
So for now, its SCHIP or nothing. I prefer SCHIP.
