While negotiations for better prices is a good thing, what do you want to bet that the prices will just be shifted around?
"But Republicans counter that there wouldn't be any savings. Also, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said the legislation was unlikely to result in savings to taxpayers".
So it's ok to ignore this committee's recommendation, but it's ok to trumpet the Iraq one? I think it would be better to look at long term costs here as well. Are we just asking for less out of pocket for seniors? Are we going to be increasing taxes on non-seniors to help pay for this? It's quite a slippery slope once these things start to get rolling.
