I'm guessing that you mean that, if an economist did say such a thing, well, obviously, they couldn't be serious. Nice spin. Now go read what the new Nobel-winning econ said this week about the tax cuts.
I'm not reading it unless you link to it.

Lordy. Read it. How many times does it say "federal dollars"? And, how few times does it actually describe any sort of cost savings tools? It's all cost-shift, and a whole lot more than the Emory guy says.
I apologize for posting something that didn't pretend that Kerry's plan would help everyone and cost nothing. I'm sure you expect some piece of hackery similar to what you originally posted. Yes, he proposes spending federal money to cover people who aren't covered now. But that's not "all" he does, as you would know if you'd read what I posted. As Starr says, he's also trying to improve incentives for coverage and treatment.
