Hey tomw, I did guess I missed this post of yours back when, but let me set the record clear.
tomw: “reading is fundamental: obama’s healthc are plan: $65 billion per year, as stated in both the article you posted and the one I posted.”
Did you miss the point Obama made where he would have government take over healthcare? You want to break down for me how we will cover some 320 million Americans and (some 20 million illegals because the democrats will cover them too) for a measly $65 billion a year? Not unless our health plan will consist of one aspirin a day and a bullet in the head so they can harvest our organs when we get ill. Google it. Obama can claim he plans to only add another $65 billion and the DNC operatives that try to pass themselves off as the impartial media might parrot him, but the facts are the facts: if we get what Obama wants government will have to at a minimum partially take over healthcare, and that is 1/6th of our GDP right now. Go lookup how much money that is please.
tomw: “The $1.6 trillion figure is being pulled out of your ass. (think goatse).”
That is the minimum amount having the government take over healthcare will cost fool. But why would I expect someone that lives in Obama economic fantasy land to have a God damn clue about what things really cost.
You libs can spin this any which way you can but Obama will increase our spending by $2 trillion at a minimum (more likely we will get stuck with another $3 trillion in colelctivist spending) and he would have to drastically increase taxes to cover that huge new expenditure, because the only thing democrats will cut is defense. After all, if we do not fight back, the war will go away in the mind of these fools…
