So they are conjuring up a problem here that--maybe people will use it as an excuse for things that they want to do. But nobody is forced to do this at this point. It is not going to take effect for years. Their proposed solution to probably a nonexistent problem is to blow another hole in the budget of over $70 billion. And, oh, this isn't paid for. It was a requirement to pay for the doc fix.
