I bet a three page loan contract would confuse you, so why do you care if it's 2400 pages or one page? If I remember correctly the GOP plan was something like 700 pages. Have you read all 700 pages and what are the chances you'll be able to understand it?

OK next question from dumbo:
In concern to the dounut hole in Medicare prescription program,,, how exactly do we pay for that change? I like the idea, but do we whittle this cost from the Insuance Companies, the Drs, or do we tax the bejeezuz out of the rich, who by the way are shrinking away,, mostly to other countries..
