Insure 47 million uninsured, costs go up.
Force pre-existing conditions coverage, costs go up.
Eliminate benefit caps, costs go up.
That means cost go up OVER AND ABOVE whatever amount they would 'normally' go up.
Obullcrapa said the 'public option' was only for the uninsured. And that they guestimated that ONLY 5% would choose the public option. 5% of 330 million is 16,500,000. What are the rest of the supposed 47 million going to do?
Fuzzy math. [AKA LIES!!!!!]
He said the plan would only cost 900 billion [lie], he said 500 billion could be found in Medicare and Medicaid fraud and waste [lie] It might be there but no one has been able to find it in over 30 years of looking. And if the 500 billion is true, wouldn't stopping that 'fraud and waste' reduce health care costs by half a TRILLION dollars RIGHT NOW? Would that not be the logical first step? No legislation needed, the laws have long been on the books, complete, 100% bi-partisan agreement no new Gov't. Bureaucracy needed. Pure plus.
