New CBO Report Claim Repealing Obamacare Would Save $1.4 Trillion



It doesn't take rocket science to figure this no-brainer..............

(American Spectator) — Repealing the new national
health care law would result in gross savings of $1.4 trillion, a new report by the Congressional Budget Office finds.

During the health care debate, Democrats were hard pressed to keep up
with President Obama’s promise that the legislation would cost “around $900 billion.” So they employed the gimmick of delaying the major spending provisions until 2014 to make the legislation appear cheaper within the CBO’s ten-year budget window, then 2010 through 2019. At the time, I calculated that this tactic deferred 98 percent of the spending to the last six years of that period.

Well, now two years have passed, and the CBO’s budget window has shifted to 2012 through 2021 — and voliĆ  — the estimate that was $940 billion at the time of passage has suddenly gone up to $1.4 trillion. Keep in mind that this estimate still includes two years (2012 and 2013) prior to full implementation.

Clearly, the actual 10-year cost of the major coverage provisions is going to be even higher — likely something closer to $1.8 trillion.

OBAMACARE IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL




This one paragraph says it all. Obamacare is UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!

(Bloomberg)The Obama administration’s requirement that most citizens maintain minimum health coverage as part of a broad overhaul of the industry is unconstitutional, a federal judge ruled, striking down the linchpin of the plan.

Obama Promise We Can Keep Our Own Doctors But Didnt Tell that to the Doctors




There will be a national shortage of doctors in America. Obamacare will force many doctors to close their practice or severely restrict accepting certain patients. With the high cost of medical education, new medical graduates often worry how they will repay back the college loan and to make a living under Obamacare. Overall, it is extremely important to abolish this heinous bill!

(New York Post) For all the times that President Obama promised "you'll get to keep your doctor" under his health-care reforms, he apparently failed to ask any practicing doctors.

A recent survey finds that countless MDs will respond to ObamaCare by limiting which patients they'll see.

The Physicians Foundation asked 2,400 doctors and American Medical Association members what they thought of the new law; a full 67 percent were against it.

More important, it asked how they'd cope with the new rules (which don't fully kick in until 2014). Sixty percent said they feel compelled to "close or significantly restrict their practices to certain categories of patients." And 59 percent said the "reform" would oblige them to spend less time with the patients they do have.

Of course, many doctors already limit how many patients they'll take on who depend on government insurance (whose fees rarely cover an MD's costs). But it'll get worse under ObamaCare: In the survey, some 87 percent said they would significantly restrict Medicare patients and 93 percent said they'd significantly restrict Medicaid patients.

All in all, the survey found that 74 percent of doctors will alter how they practice.
