Obama says that health care reform will be payed for with no new borrowing. ($1 Trillion) Do you believe him? If so, take a look at the Medicare program and what government actuary's of the time said the program would cost versus what it actually does cost now. Do you believe the Democratic healthcare BS anymore now than the Democratic healthcare BS of the 1960's? What would make anyone think Obama's actuary's know what the actuary's of the 1960's didn't?
