Phantom Health Care Savings

Obama's $80 Billion Exaggeration - WSJ.com:

"We both voted for President Obama, in part because of his pragmatic approach to problems, belief in empirical data, and openness to changing his mind when those data contradict his initial approach to a problem. We need the president to apply real scientific rigor to fix our health-care system rather than rely on elegant exercises in wishful thinking."

As I noted in my comments on the President's Congressional address, it is highly dubious that electronic medical records efficiencies will pay for themselves and generate savings to offset his health care plan costs. More dishonesty and slight of hand.
