Rep. Capuano: Further needed health care reforms
An internet search for "Republican lies about health care" returns 4.3 million hits. On many lists the number one lie is that Obamacare is an intermediate stop on the way to single payer nationalized health care.
In a column in today's Cambridge Chronicle, "Here's what health care reform will bring us," Congressman Michael E. Capuano (D-MA, 8th District) in essence apologizes to what he assumes are his liberal constituents. "As you all know, I support single payer and I wanted a strong public option in this bill," the Congressman writes. He concludes: "It is my hope that this landmark legislation will...serve as a starting point for further needed reforms."
So $940 billion (and counting) is just a starting point?
