Reply #3: Rolling out Krugman every damned day ain't fixing the bill [View All]

He can't or won't come down from 50,000 feet and look at what this bill does. He's seems like many here, just pass something.

The damn bill could be all about clubbing baby seals on the head but if it is titled "Health Care" then by all means get that shit passed.

Medical inflation, loss of benefits, loss of coverage, increased government spending, and retirements will force action regardless of political will within 10 years, there will be no choice because the percentage of GDP will be way too high to even pretend to punt.

Krugman should use his considerable skills to project what massive systemic pain will happen over the next several years and see what time it really is.

A generation my high yella ass, this thing is coming to a head fast and everyone knows it.
