Pelosi says she doesn't remember saying that...

I don’t remember saying that everybody in the country would have a lower premium, because everybody in the country doesn’t have health insurance, so how could it be lower. But the fact is, the value of what you get for the cost that you pay is a reduction is a reduction in cost to you.

let's refresh your memory, shall we...

"and EVERYBODY will have lower rates, better quality care, and better access..."

ok,.. my co-pays went up... more drugs were removed from the list of generics.. my deductible went up.. my monthly premium went up...

many of the drugs I have been taking was considered off label uses.. and the prescriptions were cancelled.. (now at least I realize what they consider fraud and waste.. my health.. )

and I can't see my local Doctor, so I travel to the VA hospital for primary care.. a 90 mile trip both ways.. or about 4 hours of travel time..

and I really doubt my case is unique..

so how did the value go up.. it didn't it went down... the VA is great for care.. I have an exceptional team... but compared to my local doctor it isn't any better or worse.. I had a great doctor..

I now take 15 pills a day.. up from the 11,.. I used to take..

so what she is saying in my case is not true... and I have "goverment" health care.. (tricare and VA)

so my cost went up.. and my value went down..

was she aiming for a reduction in value when she signed the bill,..

Didn't she read the bill to see what was in it?
