While Obamacare zealots yell that opponents are just liars and dupes who have false or irrational reasons for taking the stance they do, Deroy Murdock points out here that there is good reason to believe that the plan will simply cost too much. We have considerable experience with government programs of this kind, and they always end up costing much more than originally projected.
Hey, Krugman — is that a “lie” in your book? You can look up the estimated costs for, say, Medicare and compare with with the actual costs.
Resources are limited. If we do what Obama wants and give everyone all the “free” health care they want, that means doing without lots of other things. It’s not irrational for people to conclude that the costs will be far too high.
