Also from the article: “According to the CBO, the projected loss in insurance coverage is related mostly to a provision repealing penalties associated with the ACA’s requirement to buy insurance. ”
I saw Newt on Lou Dobb’s show and he said that CBO needs to be abolished.....it’s worthless.
This is SICKENING. It looks like the WH wants to polish the turd that is RINOcare.
If Congress won't repeal it outright, then the next best thing is to use Executive Orders and the HHS to whittle the law down to nothing.
The Uninsured they are talking about are the People that opt out of buying Health insurance because the Government “Mandate”, the Penalty that Chief Justice John Roberts turned into a Tax, is abolished.
Those people aren’t kicked off their Health Insurance, they CHOOSE not to purchase it.
New program - project low cost (lie).
Cut program - project high cost and calamity.(lie)
Deplorables need to stay engaged is the fight.
Purge the CBO. Where are PRyno and the Snapping Turtle?
Hey President trump, here’s an idea: WHY DON’T YOU DO WHAT YOU PROMISED DURING THE CAMPAIGN...REPEAL THIS POS!
Seriously, what the fu*k is happening to Trump?
When hospitals can’t turn anyone away then unfortunately we are roped into it.
I saw a story about an illegal in LA who was in such bad shape that he spent a YEAR in the hospital getting his body rebuilt. Of course he paid nothing. Just think if that had been one of us.
Yup, Trump is going full socialist on this one. He realized he painted himself into a corner.
Saw the Speaker saying this (Newt Gingrich Says the Congressional Budget Office Is 'Corrupt' and Should Be Abolished)....maybe the Trump people do also....CBO was in charge of the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare.
This is a small start, drop in the bucket, spit in the wind, but I have to say a start or the supporters of the bill here will jump me. Congress would spend these savings up in 18 days and we are talking of saving this over a 10 year period.
I agree with you, it is not the governments responsibility to provide health care insurance only to see that the laws around health care are regulated for fairness and that it is not monopolized like the Government is trying to do with SINGLE PAYER.
“It is not the government’s responsibility to provide health insurance to people.”
EXACTLY. Also, when has the CBO ever been right???
If Trump approves this, I will not vote for him in 2020.
Wow, took less than 2 months for Trump to sell out.
Let’s get real. The CBO is and always has been a joke. A place where people who are lousy in math go to work.
