Who is surprised with the unintended consequences? Not me. You let lawyers and lobbyists "help" formulate a bill that is so wide-reaching and then have our representatives tell us it is good for us. Only they aren't completely aware of what's in this bill because it's so long and complicated, requiring even more government to manage and regulate it.
A House Democrat who worked on the health care law said the situation had resulted from “an honest mistake in drafting,” and he added, “No one intended to take away any of the drug discounts that children’s hospitals already had.”
I guess someone should have read the bill before voting on it. What do you think Madame Speaker?
