The Daily Caller has a great summation of what is in Barack Obama’s plan.
“The Obama plan costs a trillion dollars, puts government in control of personal health decisions, and allows the government to set prices in the private market,” said Cantor spokesman Brad Dayspring. “That mirrors the Pelosi/Reid plans that have already been soundly rejected by the bipartisan majority of Americans.”
Humorously, Obama is scrapping the public option, but adding close to $100 billion more to the proposal. Still, with a straight face the Democrats are saying it is still deficit neutral.
People aren’t going to like this. No one believes this is deficit neutral except the Democrats.

The DEMS Will Pass MAObamaCare
Ausonius (Diary) Monday, February 22nd at 12:41PM EST (link)They will follow BIG BRObama over the cliff. I hope it does not happen, but I have never ever believed that enough of them have any courage to vote against MAObama.
DrudgeReport has Boehner’s excellent rejection of this monstrosity at the top of its headlines:
An excerpt:
“The President has crippled the credibility of this week’s summit by proposing the same massive government takeover of health care based on a partisan bill the American people have already rejected. This new Democrats-only backroom deal doubles down on the same failed approach that will drive up premiums, destroy jobs, raise taxes, and slash Medicare benefits. ”

Ausonius: 310-395 A.D. Teacher, Poet, Consul, General, Farmer.
Personal Tutor to the future St. Paulinus of Nola and to young Gratian, heir to the throne during the turbulent final years of the Western Roman Empire. When his former student Gratian was assassinated, Ausonius threw up his hands and retired to his farm in Gaul. Rome was captured by barbarians 14 years after his death.

Anything can be "revenue neutral."
skorrent1 (Diary) Monday, February 22nd at 3:20PM EST (link)The way I understand it, if the bill states that the Gov will purchase 100 unicorns for one dollar and sell them for a billion apiece, then the GAO/CBO/whatever has to credit $100b in income. Over a ten-year projection! As if any projection beyond one or two years has any validity whatsoever!
