Pretty good propaganda until this part:

12- QUESTION: How much will this bill cost?

Answer: The CBOs latest estimates the cost to be $1.042 trillion over ten years. Two third (2/3) of the cost will be duly funded by addressing inefficiencies in Medicare and Medicaid, by cracking down hard on fraud, and by eliminating waste and abuse in these programs blah blah blah...

How stupid do you have to be to believe this?

Of course, in point 2 they claim the public option will absolutely not be paid for through subsidies, then in point 12 they get around to talking about the tax increases. What would be the point of tax increases if nothing is being subsidized? And then we get around to the contention that making the system even more complicated than it is now will somehow decrease the prevalence of fraud and abuse - what planet are these people living on?

Aren’t tuition costs also going up much more than inflation too? Are we going to be forced to “fix” that problem? I mean, you can’t DENY someone a college education....or how about food costs....or cell phone bills? It’s never-ending.

If the Obama administration knows that much money is being wasted already, why hasn't the administration stopped wasting it before printing and spending more money the government doesn't have? They want us to trust them with more when they admit they can't be trusted with what they had?

Translatyoion= we will make hte crappy medicare system even crappier, by refusign to allow tests that could save lives, find hard to discover diagnosis’ etc, and we will spend literally trillions of dollars ‘crackign down hard’ on fraud which would actauilly not cost as much as ‘crackign down hard’ on it would”

I don’t think it is very good propaganda. I can refute each and every point they make off the top of my head, without breaking a sweat, or needing to reference any other writers.
