Even President Clinton's supporters say his proposal to finance health reform is politically unrealistic. It's that--and more. His plan to raise $441 billion over five years would reduce services to elderly and poor Americans, assumes savings unmatched anywhere in the Western world, and ignores the federal government's dismal track record in forecasting what new benefits will cost.
就连克林顿总统的支持者也表示，他为医疗改革筹集资金的提议在政治上不切实际。情况不止如此，甚至更糟。他的计划是在五年内筹集4410亿美元，这将减少为美国老年人和贫困人口提供的服务，其假定的节余在西方世界其他任何地方都无法实现，而且忽视了联邦政府在预测新福利成本方面糟糕的历史记录。
