If you sta...Well we'll see what it comes in at. If you start 4 years in to a ten year cycle it's easy to hid the costs. If you think that changing the pricing model is a big chance, then you can think that. If you think that will only cost $85 billion over ten years, then you are just absurd. <br /><br />There's also still the doctor fix. If this is under $900 billion, then it doesn't include the doctor fix which puts it over one trillion. If it includes the doctor fix, then it's over 1 trillion.<br /><br />The Blue Dogs are a lot more worried about their right than their left in their districts.mike volpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02999118519606254362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-90601613255256024742009-10-29T09:19:33.754-07:002009-10-29T09:19:33.754-07:00Pelosi just said it would cost less than $900 bill...Pelosi just said it would cost less than $900 billion, not a trillion. And the bill is different because it no longer includes a public option with Medicare+5% pricing model. Instead it will use negotiated rates, which adds about $85 billion to the price tag.<br /><br />One of you two isn't being honest.<br />I also severely doubt that "Blue Dogs out en masse" theory of yours. Its much more likely they'll be out if they DON'T vote for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
