We already have the MMA, which the comptroller at that time (2007) said we could not afford, and that was when the economy was good ... Former US Comptroller General David M. Walker has called this [the MMA] "...probably the most fiscally irresponsible piece of legislation since the 1960s... because we promise way more than we can afford to keep." en.wikipedia.org The MMA is projected to cost 1.2 trillion over 10 years. Now you think we can add another trillion for the healthcare plan and still get out of the hole?
