Sounds great, now prove it can be done. The CBO doesn’t seem to think it will work. Common sense says it won’t work. A significant portion of the funding supposedly will come from the elimination of fraud and waste in the current system. Exactly how that will be done is still a black box secret and one that most believe can’t be done. And if it can be done, why isn’t it being done today? After all, the biggest single complaint with the current system is cost, and if you can eliminate fraud and waste you can reduce cost.
