CBO Chief Criticizes Democrats' Health Reform Measures - washingtonpost.com

Well... he ought to just shut up then. He is obviously not a team player and is some crazy rightwing nutcase. There is only one way, folks. It is not open for interpretation from some "nonpartisan" hack.

Instead of saving the federal government from fiscal catastrophe, the health reform measures being drafted by congressional Democrats would increase rather than reduce public spending on health care, potentially worsening an already bleak budget outlook, the director of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said this morning.

Under questioning by members of the Senate Budget Committee, CBO director Douglas Elmendorf said bills crafted by House leaders and the Senate health committee do not propose "the sort of fundamental changes that would be necessary to reduce the trajectory of federal health spending by a significant amount."

From the Washington Post even. Hmmmmm.... traitors amongst them?

put a cap on the malpractice suits and make settlements more realistic. That will solve 80% of the health care issuses
