Healthcare and HHS

After the healthcare bill was passed the CBO comes out and indicates that how they initially graded the healthcare bill many not be exactly correct and it may cost more than originally estimated. Now Health and Human Services claims it will increase the budget by more than $300 billion. And why are we not surprised by that. It seems the lamestream media was not reporting this and all they did was glorify this healthcare bill while Fox news and talk radio was telling us exactly what HHS reported. It has been indicated that the estimates from HHS were even conservative on the deficit side and the actual figures may be much more. Again, when was the last time government did anything under orginal estimates. Rest assured this healtcare bill will actually cost over #2.5 billion more than estimate. And how will those deficit estimates be met, I will give you three guesses and the first two do not count.
