If you make less than $250,000 your taxes won't go up one penny.
Sure looks like the rich are in for a big hit.
Yea right. Guard your wallet.

If I was a federal accountant, I would be at least a millionaire and never had to invest a penny.

There was massive fraud in the first time home buyers $8,000 credit. On 60 minutes they detailed the $60 billion a year in Medicare fraud. Wait until these folks do everybody's medicine if you want to see fraud and waste. I just don't see how people can have any confidence in the government to do anything complex. 20% of medicare is fraud. Visa, MC, Amex, and Discover average 0.2%.

Some people want the government option on health insurance to eliminate the greedy health insurance companies. If a private company is run like the government they will be broke and out of business. The government just puts another tax on everyone to pay for their mistakes. Medicare, Post Office, congress, are all examples of how we can trust the government to do it right.
