But, it is a very market oriented program with plenty of consumer choice. Obamacare is just the opposite. To validate your overall point though, I think Medicare which started in 1966-67, was projected to cost $9 billion in 1990 - and came in at $90 billion. What we really need now is for people in Iowa to jam Grassley's phone lines with complaints + people in Maine to do likewise with Snowe's office.
