Hidden Funding in Healthcare Bill

[soonercruiser]

It turns out that the Repugs may not be able to stop the funding of Obamacare.
When Peeloski said "We'll have to read the bill, to see what's in it"....at that time we had no idea how decitful and devious she and Harry Reid really were!

And, the guesses on the cost from the CBO continue to climb!
(This is why many of us "dissed" the CBO estimates on healthcare built from Demoncratic leadership figures!) :mad:


CBO: Health Care Bill Will Cost $115 Billion More Than Previously Assessed
The director of the Congressional Budget Office said Tuesday that the health care reform legislation would cost, over the next ten years, $115 billion more than previously thought, bringing the total cost to more than $1 trillion.

Bush's fault.

Of course most of this trash post is liberal regressive talking points that can be obtained at numerous web sites, staring with the HUffington Compost and the KOS.
To one point - conservatives and Christians are by far the leading contributors to charities - not discounting evil corporations.

So, for future reference, is the Huffington Post ok to use as a citation now?

I have found one good thing about the healthcare bill.

There is a $13K refundable tax credit for individuals who have chosen to sustain the costs of adopting. Refundable means that up to $13K of costs incurred during the adoption process get refunded by Uncle Sam regardless of tax liability.

The libertarian in me doesn't like it; the guy that donates to adoptions and help adoptive parents to raise funds loves it.

If it's funded by pulling the plug somewhere else or raising a tax somewhere I don't mind. Otherwise it's just a drain on us in a different way.

Though I would be interested to see how that cost compares to the cost of keeping the child as a ward of the state.

The lawyer in me who gets paid to do adoptions thinks this is a fantastic idea.

I just wanted to do two things:
1. Show you I AM NOT AFRAID TO READ THEIR STUFF! :eek:
2. And, show a little of the opposing view.
(something most posters here don't do)
I report - You decide! :D
