Yes, it is, because it lowers costs overall. By the way, your claim about Pelosi is based on a blatant lie by Republicans about what she actually said, to whom she said it, and what she was referring to. I think you probably already know this, but she was telling a convention of county officials from all over the country that THEY would have to wait to see the final bill and what would be in it because it was still being negotiated -- in public meetings with bipartisan participation -- in the Congress. This is of course normal with every piece of legislation.

She was not speaking then to lawmakers and telling them that THEY had to vote on it first before finding out what was in it. That was the GOP's Big Lie campaign that fooled a lot of uninformed voters.
