Watch Obama in the video below. It's the same pissed look he gets when Netanyahu schools him in front of the world.
Some notes:
- The bill has ten years of tax increases, about half a trillion dollars, with ten years of Medicare cuts, about half a trillion dollars, to pay for six years of spending. The true ten year cost of the cost of the bill is 2.3 trillion dollars.
- Double counting 124 billion dollars in higher social security tax revenues and long term care insurance.
- "Ponzi scheme that would make Bernie Madoff proud"
- "treats medicare like a piggy bank" to spend on new government program.
- forcing as much as 20% medicare providers to go out of business or stop seeing medicare patients.
- ten year cost has $460,000,000,000 deficit
- second ten years $1.4 TRILLION deficit
- "We don't think the government should be in control of all of this. We want people to be in control."
- "And if you think they [the american people] want a government takeover of healthcare, I would respectfully submit that you're not listening to them."
