Congress to Reward Doctors for Supporting Health Care Bill
Posted By admin
“House Democrats want to give doctors a $245 billion sweetener that helps ensure their critical support for a health care overhaul bill. Next up: trying to explain how they could do it without breaking President Barack Obama’s promise that health legislation won’t increase the federal deficit.” (AP [1], Wednesday)
Just remember, it’s not bribery when the government does it.
