WSJ "What Mr. Ryan calls "probably the most cynical gimmick" deserves special attention, which is known in Washington as the "doc fix." Next month Medicare physician payments are scheduled to be cut by 22% and deeper thereafter, though Congress is sure to postpone the reductions as it always does. Failing to account for this inevitability takes nearly a quarter-trillion dollars off the
ObamaCare books and by itself wipes out the "savings" that the White House continues to take credit for."
Hat tip to Rush Limbaugh.
