Wow apparently the bill that the Republicans voted against would have cost $7.1 billion!

$7 billion just to cover the medical expenses for supposed health problems of emergency workers due to 9/11.

LOL!

Ridiculous. If it was $7 million it would have been reasonable, or even $70 million. But $7,000 million for a few rescue workers' supposed health problems. USA is crazy.


It was going to be paid for by closing a corporate tax loophole. So it wouldn't have cost tax payers anything.

Or they could just close the loophole and just lower peoples taxes by 7 billion.  Or just paid for stuff that's already not being paid for.

There is no way it should cost 7 billion to treat them.

Assuming there were 1 million rescue workers... which, there was nowhere near that many... that's 700 Million a piece.

What?

It's like the Healthcare Health Exchange that's going to cost us billions of dollars... when it's going to be a website like Orbitz... where the fuck does all this money go?  I'm guessing Orbitz doesn't spend BILLIONS on their website.


You might want to check your math on that one. Theres only a thousand million in a billion

My bad on that one.  Still 70 million is still ridiculious.... I mean 7 million a piece would still be VERY high, and there weren't nearly that many workers.

The amount of people with problems is listed in the "thousands".

As in under 10 thousand.

Edit: Damnit my maths is off too

 

700,000,000 * 1000,000 = 700,000,000,000,000 = 700,000 Billion amiright? Why is this so hard, it's just zeroes!

7000,000,000/1000,000 = 7000 per person? Not in the millions.

Of course in reality there were only 30,000 people so the numbers are different.

Still wrong. 7 million a piece would only be one thousand people. 70 million a piece would be one hundred.

Eh, regardless it's ridiculiously high number, doing the math quickly without thinking about it honestly, because it's just such a ridiculious number.

The number of people who have filed complaints is 10,000. (looked it up it's over 10,000, but not worth saying "tens of thousands."

So

7 billion into 10,000.  Maybe 20,000 if your lucky and the numbers explode.

So, taking my time this time... it actually is 700 million per person, or if "lucky" 350 million.

Why not just cut everybody a check for 5 million?  Cheaper by a LOT and the 9/11 workers with health problems that may or may not be related to 9/11... never have to worry about money again.

Not to nitpick, but with 10000 people it would be seven hundred thousand for each person. Which seems reasonable if you know how high medical bills for cancer and things of that nature can run.

Actually, it's 700K per person.

7 Billion = 7.000 Million

7.000 Million / 10.000 = 0.7 Million = 700.000 

Just correcting some mathematical inaccuracy. 700K health bill per person may seem a bit high, but it depends on what type of problems each individual person may have suffered. Some treatments can go as high as hundred of thousands of Euros here in Europe, so it wouldn't shock me to see a health bill that large in some cases.

10.000 similar cases...now that would be either weird, or a statistical nightmare.

How is it several hundred thousand per person, on a 7 billion cost?

Ah, i'm seeing my brain fart that messed me up in the first place.  Got I hate our number system.

There is a calculator program on your computer,  its really easy to use

But the number would be $700K per person if only 10,000 people are used,   350K if 20,000 people are figured.

Not that high considering what medical costs are
