And, unfortunately, we are not even owning up to the current deficit projections. We are not seriously addressing that. So nobody really wants to take a look at the danger inherent in this. Of course, the administration doesn't want to talk about it or admit to it because they want to go full speed ahead to implement it so we will not be able to reverse it. That is the main point. It is time to put the brakes on the implementation of the health care law before it bankrupts this Nation. We simply can't afford to fully implement it to find out what the true cost is. It will be disastrous for our deficit and debt.
