Mammograms? You don’t need them.
All Americans are saying to each other.....
“Whose in your wallet?”
I am saying get the hell out of my wallet but I don’t think they are listening in DC.
Of course you know the lame stream media will tout this “success” it is cheaper than they thought.
Let’s pass it now ...
Forget Thanksgiving ... Merry Christmas America ...
Reid said last night with a stupid grin on his face “If you’re not impressed by it, well you should be.”
Gee, a blue light special. Maybe throw in an extra HC bill for good measure!!! sarc/
Bastard traitors!!! I hope every senator who votes for this piece of crap will be thrown out of office and hopefully thrown into prison for fraud, theft & treason!!!
Same thing for the socialist House traitors who already voted for their socialist HC plan to destroy Amerika.

He must have been in the restroom...
I think this is just to bring it to the floor. Not the actual vote?
$ 849 billion, my foot. That’s what they said about the House bill, and now we know Heritage has discovered it will cost THREE times that.
And on top of it all, this is only a preliminary score.
IOW....look out below!
I imagine that many Americans from where you are to where I am are echoing your words, blood pressure going up and thinking this is just nuts.
I fear this will give them much to gloat about ... but ... any senator on the fence who says this is a reason to vote had best take a long hard look at their office because when folks are mad they come out and vote and they will next year.
Stay strong friend hopefully we have a voice after next falls election that might put a stop to the reckless behavior of this administration and this congress.
The vote to bring it to the floor is the important vote. Once on the floor the Dems can invoke the nuclear option on the bill where they cant on a vote to proceed.

“So, the CBO says it’s cheaper than they thought?”
That’s not counting the costs of the soon to be legal illegal aliens, is it?
True and recall the folks with CMA said the long term effects will be more costly on the house side, you are correct when the final cost different organization’s will look at it and will find the hidden costs and hidden agendas.
849 billion divided by 31 million is about $27,000 per person.$2700/year/person. Seems a little high when you are in charge of rationing who receives care and what you pay doctors,hospitals and drug companies.
Double post. Pad on my Gatewu is way too sensitive. Sorry
Saying it only costs $849 billion is like saying, “The burglar wasn’t able to fit your 60” HDTV in his van, so you’ll need to pony up some cash to make it up to him.”
Cover 31 million more or just cover only 31 million?
Dung-heap Harkin said it would be over $900B with “sweeteners” added on. Add in the unpaid-for doc-fix and it’s over $1.3 trillion - and that’s just for starters.
These people are absolute disgusting pieces of shIt.
