HEALTHCARE REFORM: Congressional Budget Office: Health reform bill to cut deficit, Republicans still critical

Image: The Congressional Budget Office has estimated the current health reform bill “would cost $940 billion and reduce the deficit by $130 billion during the first ten years[, and] in the second 10 years, it would reduce the deficit by $1.2 trillion.” It’s no surprise that Republicans are still criticizing the current health reform bill over costs, despite the fact that Republicans have voted for more expensive programs under the Bush II Administration.

    |SOIL|MINERALS|FOREST|WATER|WILDLIFE|WIND|SOLAR|GEOTHERMAL|BIOMASS|BIODIESAL|OTHER|

    Our economy rest on a base of natural resources, we CAN NOT remove the top from the base.
    Conservation is the wise-use, management, & development of the Earths natural resources, conservation is needed at all level os the Economic Pyramid.
    CONSUMER Health Care
    The CONSUMER (U & I) are at the top of the pyramid, it’s all connected, & we CAN
    NOT afford to have a NEGATIVE attitude about that.
    NEGATIVE or POSITIVE attitude?
    The choice is ours.
    Our economy, health & planet are in the balance!!!
