Definitely a very mixed conclusion from this. Though I may sound like a moderate hero, it seems the bill is worse than Obama said, but better than Republicans predicted.

So we're spending 1% more to cover 34 million more people? Sounds good to me.

Only 11 million didn't have access to care. The others were eligible for something before the over haul.

The real budget crisis will not be in the federal budget, but in the state budgets. Medicaid will double in size, and it already makes up a significant portion of state budgets. Add that to all the other federally mandated peograms, and you are going to have real problems.
