The points in the article are not facts, they are undocumented opinions and I disagree with them..and you. Doesnt make either one of us right...only time will tell.

I do agree that the CBO budget estimate of deficit reductions are optimistic...but nearly half of the cost is offset with hard money....$150 billion in cuts in overpayments to MA providers and a 0.9% increase in medicare payroll tax for top wage earners (over $200K) for another $250 bill.

The significant investment in medical/health care technology (in both the stimulus bill and the health reform bill) will save $$$ billions over time...just difficult to determine with certainty exactly how much.
