WH: 'Cost of the Build Back Better Agenda is $0.'

The White House @WhiteHouse 7h
The cost of the Build Back Better Agenda is $0.

The President's plan won't add to our national deficit and no one making under $400,000 per year will see their taxes go up a single penny. It's fully paid for by ensuring big corporations and the very wealthy pay their fair share.

It's just too little too late to add vision, hearing, and dental to Medicare's 80% coverage; the Supplemental plans will still feed those HC executives at the private insurers. Will it be enough to compete with restrictive Advantage plans with their come-on Plan B deductibles. I doubt that lower drug prices on those Plan Ds won't make much of a dent either as companies squeeze their formularies.
