True Cost of Obamacare


Almost 5 trillion dollars.
So how do you manage to, well, pretend that this health care bill will cost only 894 billion dollars (or whatever the figure is--it's a lot--but five times a lot is a whole lot of money!)
You just conveniently leave out a whole lot of expenditures.
Like paying doctors adequately for Medicare--unless, of course, you are actually thinking of NOT paying doctors for their Medicare patients--at which point there will be no more Medicare doctors. Doctors can't just work for nothing, or less than nothing!
Or, making Medicare cuts. Ditto.
Or, just looking at the first ten years of government health care, collecting taxes for the ten years, but only spending money the last 6 years of the upcoming decade.
Bait and Switch?
