Here are the recent results of a review of the health care bill by some independent experts.
Report says health care will cover more, cost more - Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100423/ap_on_bi_ge/us_health_care_law_costs - broken link)
Seems to be the theme here..look at the Goldman Sachs case...I guess we should change the name of these "conspiracy theorist radio shows" to "positive prediction radio shows" because these things are being exposed on these radio shows months before it hits the mainstream, and then the sheep finally see the truth but some sheep still don't get it.
If cost do go up as they are predicting then what will be the administration's response to this? Health Savings Accounts from what I've read have become a popular way to deal with cost but I don't know if Obama is open to them for cost control.
FROM THE ARTICLE: "But it held out little hope for progress in the first decade...During 2010-2019, however, these effects would be outweighed by the increased costs associated with the expansions of health insurance coverage," wrote Richard S. Foster, Medicare's chief actuary. "Also, the longer-term viability of the Medicare ... reductions is doubtful." Foster's office is responsible for long-range costs estimates."
So the health care insurance affordability crisis was so important that we had to shove a bill through before even the legislators could read it, but it actually INCREASES costs for the next 9 YEARS!
