You know what makes me sad? There was a time when I would be jumping up and down and screaming with joy over this news. These days, I'm just taking a I'll-believe-it-when-I-see-it approach. I hate being this cynical.

However, this frees up several hundred billion $ per year if it's true. Think of the mammograms, and teachers, and solar panels, and new bridges that money could buy. Or, you know, we could pay some bills and put the rest of it in the bank. ;)
