So essentially your argument is that the only people who will lose coverage are the people who are intentionally unintentionally improperly using the system? Or that nobody loses coverage because all of the savings are realized through efficiency and error correction?

Deficits soared because of Trumps tax cuts for the wealthy, then soared even more with Biden’s giveaways.
hghwy1.bsky.social (@hghwy1.bsky.social) reply parent
If all of the savings come from the abuse in the system they would need to reduce the payout to states. Will the states target the people committing fraud better than the government. Sorry for being flippant, you didn’t exactly win me over with the “ Trump’s tax cuts paid for themselves” article
hghwy1.bsky.social (@hghwy1.bsky.social) reply parent
I get it, government bad. Maybe the CBO is completely wrong, as that article argues. Still, the bill shifts significant burden for Medicare from the gov to the states, many of which cannot make up the shortfall and will have to cut the funding if the program. R’s will finally kill ACA.
hghwy1.bsky.social (@hghwy1.bsky.social) reply parent
CBO estimates 7M lose health insurance because of this bill, 10M fewer enrollees in 10 years. If it’s simply taking out WF&A why are red state officials so worried, they should be rushing to close those rural hospitals and kick people out of the program.

Clearly you did your own research. No wonder Trumpers are so easily led. BBB would cut over $800M from Medicaid funding over 10 years as they tear down the funding mechanisms to the states for expansion of Medicaid under the affordable care act.

I’m tired of Lucy teeing up the football and us Charlie Brown’s thinking this time it’s going to be different. Trump will make some token concessions on the taxes in a way that will hurt working families but lower the deficit impact, R’s will fall in line, and the DC media will criticize Biden
