I don't pay much attention to the CBO score, the reason being is that you can manipulate numbers to show whatever you want it to show.
i just wish I had a better understanding of exactly what the President is replacing Obamacare with. I worry that it is going to be just another program with a lot of problems. I'm hearing about a greater reliance on healthcare savings accounts - if people aren't saving for retirement, what makes anyone think that they will save for health care? I'm not saying that I don't think Obama care shouldn't be repealed, but I wish they would slow down and really think about it, rather than rushing to make political points. They have a little over 3 more years to debate and come up with something that really will work. And like flyfisher, I am wondering why the government should be involved at all. I can see the government creating legislation that allows certain things to happen and change, but we don't need the govenrment in the sub-business of being health care providers.
I just wish I felt better about the whole thing.
