One more time.

Learn the budget mechanisms.

Obamacare is fully funded. Its costs can increase and it will still be fully funded. Its costs can explode X1000 and it will still be fully funded. The bonds issued by Treasury to pay for such a thing could be Quantitative Ease funded by the Fed, if there were systemic risk.

This is perhaps the greatest flaw in the whole debate. The NO votes thought there would be the sanctuary of “implosion” or “explosion” or “collapse”. No such thing is possible. The funding is on autopilot.

You want to remove the funding? Get 60, or get Ryan’s bill.

No sane investor would buy those bonds, even @ two orders of magnitude less than your absurd statement.

Money “can” be printed “out of nowhere”, but the consequences will catch up. Some already have.
