Dean is now at least the second Democrat (first) who has acknowledged that the purpose of the bill to them was at least in part to redistribute wealth.
Don't you think it's kind of disingenuous to fear monger about "redistributing wealth"- when something like the Bush tax cuts cost us almost two and half times as much as the health care bill?
That story as a parable for how our economic system works, is "barstool" economics in itself. Fun little story, close to reality or relevance- not really.
