Does anyone believe even the basic premise that anyone can predict costs for a program 10 or 20 years out.
Even if you say well we have to hve something score this my response is why. Adding an entitlement for 30 million people can't be free. Did anyone bother to ask what hapens to this score when immigration reform adds another 10 million people who will be part of this program.
As to the taxes that are going to be raised. In case folks forgot we have a $1.3 trillion deficit so who thinks taxes do not have to be raised to help offset that.
Are folks really as gullible as what I am reading here. Or do they know this is all B.S. but it is a dance we have to perform to pass this new entitlement.
