There is no collapse. If you took the time to study the budget and how it is funded, you would know this.
It doesn’t matter what Obamacare costs. Treasury will issue bonds to pay for it. Y’all might want to stop thinking of govt spending as “the taxpayers’ money”. It’s more like Quantitative Ease money. 25% of GDP in 6 yrs was created from thin air.
Why not just kill taxes? Because that risks the narrative of normalcy.
But I digress. There is no implode. There is no collapse. The Fed has infinite money and their responsibility, as they demonstrated in 2007/8/9 is to guard against systemic risk. If Obamacare creates systemic risk, they fund the bonds that pay for it.
You guys are just delusional. You would be less so if you stopped reading blogs by other delusional right wing seekers-of-clicks and just study the budget.
Oh, and in the context of “it was a bad bill” . . . well, if you can’t get a majority then it probably was a bad bill.
But none of the wackos offered up anything else that could get through the Senate.
And for God’s sake stop with the “we passed repeal only bills 5 times!!!” crap. You know damn well no one took those seriously because Obama would not sign them. They were a waste of time, but the GOP donors had to be fed red meat. With Trump prez, putting those bills up would have failed the House far worse as all the NY and Cali guys would say no. There are 33 competitive districts. No way in hell they would say yes. That’s more No’s than the Koch funded Freedom Caucus had. And of course no way to get 60 in the Senate. Hell, not even 50, with Collins out there and worse Flake won his seat with only 46%, and Heller is in a solid Blue state now and up in 2018, too.
You could not even get 50 with that crap.
