>> The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office If the CBO were nonpartisan there would be no difference between the attitudes of Douglas Holtz-Eaken and Elmendorf. It is TOTALLY partisan. “The Congressional Budget Office reported today that the Affordable Care Act imposes a $1 trillion tax increase and continues to raid Medicare by over $700 billion to fuel a new $1.7 trillion open-ended entitlement, while doing nothing to reduce the backbreaking health care costs for families and businesses," House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) said in a statement. “This law was built with smoke and mirrors to hide the impact of the trillions of dollars of new entitlement spending," he said. Anyone who would ignore Ryan, arguably one of the few honest brokers when it comes to budget matters, is asking for it. There is not one health care plan in HISTORY that CBO estimates came out even in the ballpark for.
