That's the latest guesstimate from the Congressional Budget Office on how much
more Obamacare will really cost:
"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."
Right-brainers take note: this is what $1 Billion in crisp new $100 bills looks like:
Now multiply that by 115. And keep in mind, this sum is how much
MORE Obamacare will cost. This is on top of the multi-trillion dollar inital estimate. (I've already
stated my feelings on this so won't do it again.)
Kinda takes your breath away, doesn't it?
uggh...Obamacare makes me mad too....*sigh* Its especially worse when you are in the health care system and see all of these people who don't take care of themselves that expect us to take care of all of their problems for free...And all of the money it is going to cost...unreal!
ReplyDeleteon a brighter note...I love that you call your children "kidlets". One day when I have my own I think I might have to steal your cute word =)
