“In a wholly predictable development, it turns out the cost for Obamacare will end up being twice the original price that the Democrats said.”

A quick glance at RomneyCare would reveal that those proposing these things always lowball their estimates.

The Sheeple are not concerned. It is all just a lot of mishmash to them.
Their only interest will be the cost of gas, Mcdonalds, and
best actor and actress of the year.
They have been told by PMSNBC that The Obumbo is the messiah
and that is just fine with them.

Those numbers are trillions, not billions. Government schools strike again.

And-they-call-it-reform.

What's wrong with that?

It IS reform. That's why the fight was so bitter.

They have destroyed the US medical and hospital services system. Sure, the buildings are still standing, and the workers still show up.

But everything that we rely on is gone, or going.

After the destruction is complete, the state will re-form everything in a Marxist paradigm.

That's the MEANING of "reform". So why the objection?

The cost of Medicare is a good place to begin. At its start, in 1966, Medicare cost $3 billion. The House Ways and Means Committee estimated that Medicare would cost only about $ 12 billion by 1990 (a figure that included an allowance for inflation). This was a supposedly “conservative” estimate. But in 1990 Medicare actually cost $107 billion.

Given the fact that Congressional mendacity is more developed now than in 1966..we can definitely expect several orders of magnitude worse...

Obama is simply bankrupting the US. In 2007, five years ago, the ANNUAL US deficit was $161 billion. In February, 2012 the MONTHLY US deficit was $229 billion. That projects to almost $3 TRILLION annual deficit. Almost 20 times the deficit of five years ago.

Obama has taken the deficit parabolic. Increased taxes will not cover this debt. There is only one way out.

Insights for Christians taken from Psalms 53: New King James Version.

...”They are corrupt, and have done abominable iniquity; There is none who does good.”
...”God looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God. Every one of them has turned aside; They have together become corrupt;”...
...”Have the workers of iniquity no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?”...
...”For God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you; You have put them to shame, because God has despised them.”...

Just remember. The world may be totally corrupt and full of mortal men and women who are trying to be God. They will not succeed for the true Creator will not tolerate the abuse of His people for long.

It was going to break the already broken bank with the original figures lies they put out - now they're just kicking a dead horse.

Almost fifty percent of the people are not paying taxes. They don’t care how much their “free stuff” costs.

The people who will put Obama over the top are the big business types. They don’t care how much it costs, either, as long government regulations suppress any potential competition.
