The Unaffordable Care Act

mandym · Mar 20, 2012

President Obama’s health plan should be rechristened “The Unaffordable Care Act.” Precisely as Obamacare’s critics predicted, the officially titled Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is no bargain for taxpayers or patients.

Obama signed this measure on March 23, 2010. Less than two years later, its original $940 billion, ten-year price tag is in tatters. As the Congressional Budget Office re-forecast Tuesday, this program will cost $1.76 trillion through fiscal year 2022. The CBO foresees 87 percent overrun, not even 24 months into this boondoggle. At this rate, the Unaffordable Care Act may do for medicine what the Big Dig did for public works.

How did this initiative deteriorate so quickly?

“The books have been severely cooked,” explains House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R., Wis.). As devious Democrats concocted Obamacare in 2009, they delayed its full implementation until 2014. Hence, back-loaded expenses mainly filled the final six years of the CBO’s 10-year analysis of the bill’s costs (FY2010–2019). As they pile-drived Obamacare down America’s collective throat, Democrats lied about how delicious it was, claiming a ten-year price tag below $1 trillion.

Nothing is free - someone has to pay for it. and if the "government" pays - well they should say Taxpayers are paying.

It is the same even with salvation - Scripture tells us it is a gift - which it is to us - but it was paid for voluntary by Christ
