Re: 6 pages become 429

[Guest guest]

Are these both the same font, margin settings, etc? I know earlier

that some Republicans were messing around with that deliberately to

inflate the size (they have a point, but it irks me when people

fiddle with numbers).

 

A single

6-page section of the Obamacare law has become 429

pages of regulations thanks to HHS. If this ratio

holds, then the 907 page law will become 64850 pages

of regulations. There is no way the health care

industry could withstand that. And remember, once

the Dems rammed this bill through they immediately

began crowing that it was only the first step.

 

 

Giving proof to Main Street's worries that

President Obama's healthcare

reform will lead to thousands of new and

costly regulations,

the Department of Health and Human Services has

taken one small section of the law and written

enough new rules to every page of Obama's campaign

book, The Audacity of Hope—plus another 45

pages. [Check

out a roundup of political cartoons on

healthcare.]

Section 3022 of the law, which is about the

Medicare shared savings program, take up just six

pages in the 907-page Patient Protection and

Affordable Care Act. But HHS

has turned that into 429 pages of new regulations

and that's too much, says Republican

Wyoming Sen.

I don't know but I don't think the Stupid Party would be that stupid.
