Sounding more wonky than usual, the President still offered no details on what he thinks healthcare reform should be or how we will pay for it. But, according to the New York Times coverage of the press conference:
"He praised the pharmaceutical industry for making a hard commitment, but added, We might be able to get $100 billion out of them, or more. Mr. Obama offered no specific plans to increase the companies’ contributions to health care savings."
Folks -- 10% of our national healthcare spend cannot finance the other 90%.
Hullo?
