The bill is shorter than a Harry Potter novel, and much of it is blank pages, and yes, indeed, the payment methods of how the Affordable Care Act was funded was fully covered in the press and in discussion on the House and Senate floor in detail.
The bill pays for itself, by the funding methods outlined within it. Which are not "hidden or secret", but were well-discussed. No secrets there. The bill has already been law for 2 years.
Do none of you realize the association between the Affordable Care Act and Romney's lies about the $716 billion? |
They never had a chance to read anyhting, were they inclined. The vote was hurried through and the bill was jammed down our throats like everything this administration has done. Wake up.
While I know nothing of Harry Potter I am going out on a limb and guessing that no children's book is 906 pages. I will post the bill again for you, please go ahead and read it and see where the funding really comes from.
