The death panels and abortion funding are written in invisible ink and will appear after the billis signed. I love how Congress only gives costs for 10 years, as if nothing happen after 10 years like the mass retirement of baby boomers. Yes, our elected officials have gone above and beyond their duty&hellip;]]></description>
