Govt will spend $1.993 TRILLION over a decade....unreal. For crappy insurance.

Quote:It will cost the federal government – taxpayers, that is – $50,000 for every person who gets health insurance under the Obamacare law, the Congressional Budget Office revealed on Monday.

The number comes from figures buried in a 15-page section of the nonpartisan organization’s new ten-year budget outlook.

The best-case scenario described by the CBO would result in ‘between 24 million and 27 million’ fewer Americans being uninsured in 2025, compared to the year before the Affordable Care Act took effect.
Pulling that off will cost Uncle Sam about $1.35 trillion – or $50,000 per head.

The numbers are daunting: It will take $1.993 trillion, a number that looks like $1,993,000,000,000, to provide insurance subsidies to poor and middle-class Americans, and to pay for a massive expansion of Medicaid and CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) costs.

Offsetting that massive outlay will be $643 billion in new taxes, penalties and fees related to the Obamacare law.

No, it can't be, Obama and Reid and Pelosi and MSNBC would never lie. Ever!

No...This is not a income redistribution(welfare)program.

We could have just given them a "Cadillac" plan for 20% of that cost, without canceling all those policies on the people who liked their insurance.

Easier still...made Medicaid a national program.

This!!! Just buy their damn insurance - save a ton. Oh, but then, how would the politicians be able to pick winners and losers and hand out exemptions, etc.

Report: Deficits Will Explode As Soon As Obama Leaves Office…



How convenient for Barry..This will be his legacy.....

Quote:Federal deficits may have been falling since the end of the recent recession, but thanks to spending increases in major health care programs, including Obamacare, deficits are set to explode in 2017, according to a new report by the Congressional Budget Office.

Thanks to the recent recession and President Obama’s trillion dollar stimulus, the federal budget deficit reached an all time $1.4 trillion high in 2009. Then, as the economy slowly improved and Obama’s stimulus trickled to end, the deficit began to fall. According to the CBO, the deficit will continue to fall to $467 billion in 2016.

Immediately after Obama leaves office, however, deficits are expected to rise steadily thanks mostly to growth in mandatory health care spending programs like Obamacare…

Count us ****** then. The best we can hope for is to somehow fix this mess.
Damn...you cant use *****.. pennis...but you can use ******.

But isn't Obamacare going to cost 20% less???

This is nothing new to anyone that was truly paying attention. It was widely reported and what gave rise to all those heated contentious town hall meetings and stuff with people literally screaming at their local Reps and Senators. Clear that it was purposefully front loaded with all the "good" and "free" stuff, keep an adult on a policy til 26, pre-existing exemption and all the other goodies to get the ignorant masses addicted to yet another socialist redistribution policy, then WHAM!!!

The true costs kick in and guess what? If you object, you are an evil rich person who wants the poor to die in the streets and want to deny adult children the ability to live a healthy life or whatever else. Not a surprise in the least and yes, indeed, it will bankrupt this country, sure as many said it would more than5 years ago.

So, yep. We are truly ******, but we get and got the government we deserve. We can only hope the SC rips this travesty out by it's roots and give us a do-over with some adults in charge. Otherwise? Our kids and our kids, kids will live a poorer life than we.

Why do you think there's a renewed push to raise taxes across all kinds of areas, especially the death tax? Punish the achievers and savers, we gots us some socialism to pay fo'!

Yep, we's be screwed for sure.

You guys need to quite listening to Rush Limbaugh.

Obamacare is 110% revenue neutral.

Are you racists really suggesting the man is a lair?



signed,

Most of the leftists here

How convenient nearly every tax increase is to take place After Obama leaves Office. Guess this needs to be broadcast so He gets ALL of the Credit and not blame the Next president. But You know the Left media, it will be as if Obama never were here. Were Screwed any way You look at it.

Just unreal. $50k... Let that sink in.
