Could you please provide some detail as to what you believe is wrong with the bill (other than a Republican president made it happen)? It's like anything the republicans do...disguised as a social program, is a financial fraud for their crony corporations. It started as a 290B program, then grew to 400B. Later we learned that it was known by insiders who were threatened with their jobs to keep the real cost secret... 530B . It's just another Haliburton style fraud, forbidding the government (that's you and me pal) from going out for bid on these drugs, it required bribes and illegal vote hold overs to get passage, and a number of republicans had voted against this rip off. It's a scandalous and crooked grab bag. At $3.6K, my father's liability represents 25% of his SS yearly income. Al
