one person you left out in terms of the cbo telling the truth is richard foster who is the actuary atonze star for action during the war zone and maybe a medal of freedom later. senator sessions who is the president will log on the budget really hit it. thank you for that. that is half a trillion dollars. the other half of that is half a trillion that goes to all these exchanges and rules and regulations and setting up the affordable health care act and basically it denies medicare reimbursement to all sorts of folks. doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers and hospital administrators. on and on. we had a health care summit in topeka, kansas. 34 regulations popped out of work and we could have had 164. we sent a 34 in to the secretary of age 2 s and went to hayes, kansas, america. that is in the world health care delivery system. we had seven different regulations. i hope we will have a colloquy on regulations that we can certainly insert those in the record. senator boozman david standpoint of what happened in regard to rationing. let me get your attention for a minute. you know who enfor

and richard foster says 5 billion will be gone by 2012. this is between 2011 and 2014. well, they have said the administration said about 400,000 people would be moving into these to get the insurance and the high-risk pool. only 41,000 people have actually signed up for the insurance in the state's high risk pool, which makes one wonder how many people really are with preexisting conditions. even though so few have signed up, about five states have gone back to the fed saying, the son of money here for us to make high-risk pool work, so they are asking for money from the fed. so it just shows the example that this will cause so much more than the administration in the cbo have ever said. >> and i just say also one of the reason the states are spending more is because when the premiums were sent at the legal level according to how the law was written, few people were buying insurance because it was so expensive. so hhs added a new director disable cut the cost of the insurance of the insurance is less expensive and therefore we are running out of money even faster. so t

that's richard foster who is the actuary down at the department of health and human services.honor and maybe -- not a medal of honor. we'll just give him a purple heart, maybe a bronze star for action during the war zone and then maybe a medal of freedom later. senator sessions who is our resident bulldog on the budget really hit it on the second counting, and thank you for that. that's a half a trillion dollars. the other half of that is it's a half a trillion dollars that goes to all these exchanges and the rules and the regulations and setting up the affordable health care act, and basically it denies medicare reimbursement to all sorts of folks -- doctors, nurses, hospice, pharmacists, ambulance drivers, hospital administrators, and on and on and on. we had a health care summit in topeka, kansas. 34 different regulations popped out of the woodwork. they could have had 164 but we sent the 34 in to the secretary of h.s.s. we went to the secretary of rural kansas. that's out there in the health care delivery system. we had seven different regulations. i hope later when we hav

and don't believe my statement on that, read the reports from richard foster, who is the chief actuary at c.m.s., who has studied this and said, look, this is the consequences of this legislation. well, at the end of the day, it's pretty clear to all of us that this is failed policy. it was quickly put together to try to ram it through to roll the minority to get this done and we ended up with a very failed piece of legislation. the american people do not like this legislation any better than the day it was passed. in fact, they like it less. the more they learn about this legislation, the less they like it. i'll just wrap up with one not thought. we all know that these days the supreme court is hearing arguments on this case. it is my hope that the supreme court will intervene, will decide that this law is, in fact, unconstitutional and then we can build a health care law the way it should be done, a step at a time, consulting with medical providers and governors all across this country to build a policy that makes sense for our health care system and for our citizens. that's what sho
