Ernie .... according to what I`ve been able to find out , those figures are estimates only from the CBO based on reviewing a summary .... not the actual plan(s) . I thought it interesting that a while back the head of the CBO was summoned to the White House when the CBO published some figures that Obama didn`t like .... and all at once , we have these favorable figures ?? As everyone knows , the devil is in the details ... and there is a real devil here . There will be massive tax increases on the insurance companies .... which will raise everyone`s premiums and force people to look to the government as their savior . Also , those tax increases , and many others , apply immediately , while the actual plan doesn`t come into play until 2013 .... isn`t that playing fast and loose with the "facts " ?
All government programs ever put in place have had massive cost overruns and been nowhere near projections on cost . I`m afraid I have to disagree with you on this ... I see a massive train wreck in the offing .
