How bad is the Pelosi bill?
Betsy's Page — It is bad in every way imaginable. The WSJ looks at the multiple faults of this bill. Read the whole thing, but here are some samples. Even so, the House disguises hundreds of billions of dollars in additional costs with budget gimmicks. It "pays for" about six years of program with a decade of revenue, with the heaviest costs concentrated in the second five years. The House also pretends Medicare payments to doctors will be cut by 21.5% next year and deeper after that, "saving" about $250 billion. ObamaCare will be lucky to cost under $2 trillion over 10 years; it will grow ...

Decoding Pelosi’s health care reform bill
neo-neocon — The Wall Street Journal tackles the 1990-page wonder, and comes up with this. Summary: Mr. Obama rode into office on a wave of “change,” but we doubt most voters realized that the change Democrats had in mind was making health care even more expensive and rigid than the status quo. Critics will say we are exaggerating, but we believe it is no stretch to say that Mrs. Pelosi’s handiwork ranks with the Smoot-Hawley tariff and FDR’s National Industrial Recovery Act as among the worst bills Congress has ever seriously ...
