Obamacare costs 900 Trillion

www.youtube.com...



Can this be correct?

www.schnittshow.com...

Schnittshow.com: Kelly O'Donnell on NBC reports that Obamacare costs 900 Trillion and NBC also displays text of 900 trillion...

I am sorry, if I posted this under the wrong category.

I think they got a bad piece of info and ran with it without verifying.

The last figure I heard was it will cost about 9 trillion.

YES

Private healthcare is 2.5 trillion a year

We as a nation earn 10 trillion a year give or take

900 trillion is like 90 years of output for this nation

Please do not forget what the word ESTIMATE means.

Nobody really knows what the final price tag will be.

True that, the private market is slated to compound 160% in the next ten years-

I wonder about CBO, inflation, etc...

Curiosity strikes me when thinking about how these figures come to be? Is the figure they estimate being the cost of a 5000 page bill that has not largely been read through?

Is that figure counting any hidden costs potentially associated with this reform?

Where is the transparency??

There is no accurate telling of just how much this enema is going to cost.

I think 900 Trillion is about right,
after adjusting for Hyperinflation

Considering much smaller countries can manage healthcare for all far better than anything proposed in the US, these sensationalist numbers reek of bullpoop.
