CBO finds 'millions' will lose coverage from repeal bill
By Peter Sullivan - 09/25/17 06:03 PM EDT

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projected Monday that the last-ditch GOP ObamaCare repeal bill would result in "millions" of people losing coverage.
The agency did not give a specific number given a lack of time to do the analysis before a vote, but said the "direction of the effect is clear."
 
The bill also would reduce deficits by more than $133 billion over 10 years, the CBO found, clearing a hurdle in qualifying for special rules to avoid a filibuster.

The same CBO that assured us Obamacare as passed in 2008 would result in $2500 savings on premiums per household.

Sure. Tell us another one.

Good. People should have health insurance if they...

a) Want it
b) Can afford it

If not, they need to either "self-insure" or seek some form of charity care. Period.

How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!
