10. I don't know where you're getting those numbers
I looked it up on wikipedia and while the article agreed with your number, the link itself didn't.

http://www.census.gov/hhes/www/poverty/threshld/thresh08.html for reference

I don't see 60k+ anywhere on that chart. In any case I don't think most young people have a family of four to look out for, and this OP was sort of intended to be about that particular age group and the political wisdom of ignoring them, without discounting that others may accrue some benefits from this plan aside from the lower Medicare buy-in age.
