health care: The TRUE Cost of Health Care Reform - 03/26/10 05:44 PM
Today we get our first glimpse at what the true cost of the Health Care Reform bill will actually cost America. This morning AT&T gave us the first Billion Dollar Red Flag.  According to their filing with the SEC, AT&T will take a $1 Billion dollar non-cash charge expense recorded against their first quarter 2010 earnings.  So much for the Obama administration's claim that health care reform would have no direct costs until 2014!  "AT&T Inc. ("AT&T") intends to take a non-cash charge of approximately $1 billion in the first quarter of 2010 to reflect the impact of this change.  As a result … (12 comments)

health care: Where do Interest Rates have left to go? - 03/26/10 12:06 PM
So what comes next for Interest Rates, and the housing industry?

health care: The "Kennedy" seat, and Health Care - 01/15/10 01:40 PM
Tom Bemis at MartketWatch posted an article today claiming that DC Democrats should hope that Brown wins in Mass..  This must seem like blasphemy to those on the Left who worship at the Kennedy altar.  After all, health Care was one of Teddy's favorite causes, and having his former seat be the one responsible for putting a halt to this so called "reform" is inconceivable to the Leftist elite in Boston.
According to the article, Democrats face two choices:

2.) Seat Brown and then … (13 comments)
