The next part of the economy that Obama and the gang work hard to destroy; Healthcare. This is not about helping anyone, it is about taking power from industry -- and those that produce -- they are blood suckers, it is your blood they want and to make a nation of slaves. And Obama talks about saving money -- his plan will spend more, and will have poorer quality.
Sad, that the R's were also going down the facist path...
CBO: Senate bill $1 trillion over 10 years
By DAVID ESPO – 1 hour ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — A leading health care bill under consideration in Congress would cost the government an estimated $1 trillion over the next decade and reduce the ranks of the uninsured by about one-third, or 16 million individuals, congressional budget officials said Monday in a preliminary estimate.
In a letter to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., Congressional Budget Office Director Douglas W. Elmendorf said the estimate was based on major provisions contained in an incomplete draft of the bill. He noted that "taking all of its provisions into account could change our assessment of the proposal's effects on the budget and insurance coverage rates though probably not by substantial amounts relative to the net costs already identified."
The CBO released its preliminary estimate as several congressional committees looked ahead to votes on legislation that President Barack Obama has placed atop his list of domestic priorities, and the chief executive appealed to the nation's doctors for support. Appearing in Chicago, Obama drew boos when he told the American Medical Association he opposes caps on damages that juries or judges may award in medical malpractice cases.
