Grace-Marie Turner on the Commonwealth Fund’s study comparing Obamacare to the Romney health plan:
The liberal Commonwealth Fund is at it again, releasing today a new study, “Health Care in the 2012 Presidential Election: How the Obama and Romney Plans Stack Up.” But the “study” is, in a word, nonsense.
The crucial sentence in the publication is this one: “Because Romney has not yet fleshed out the details of [his health reform] proposals, a set of assumptions was made.” That is a significant understatement.
The work regurgitates a similar “study” by the liberal FamiliesUSA last week, which devised its own assumptions about what a Romney plan would look like.
