Obamacare Update #2

As we can see below in the Path to single payer? post, the “public option” is just a ruse that leads to “Single Payer” healthcare. It is a bad thing.

Now Pelosi Prepares To Move Ahead With Robust Public Option

A preliminary analysis from CBO may have sealed the deal. Speaker Nancy Pelosi is preparing to move ahead with a “robust” public option–one that reimburses hospitals and providers at Medicare rates, plus five percent–in the House’s health care bill.

That’s not enough to cover their costs, is it?

The analysis finds the reconstituted House proposal to be deficit neutral, and require about $870 billion in new spending, over ten years.

Gosh, that means $870 billion in new taxes, doesn’t it?
