There is no glitch; they were closing a clear loophole in the system. It is bothersome that whenever people see a big number like that they immediately think its wasteful spending. This ensures that retired families can be provided with healthcare. I guess pushing grandma off a cliff is not so far off…; June 22, 2011 at 9:10 AM
