The Congressional Budget Office estimated that the proposed healthcare reform would cost a trillion dollars over 10 years.
NPR gave some perspective by pointing out that that's 100 billion dollars a year and that the US is spending a trillion dollars a year on the war in Iraq.
So, for 10% of the cost of the war in Iraq, we can fix healthcare?
