The part of the deficit that doesn't include ObamaCare. That was easy.
In other words, ObamaCare's total cost (spending minus revenue) for the next decade will be $1.38T.
This is offset by a reduction in the deficit on the rest of the federal budget by $152B.
That still leaves a net cost of $1.228T over the next 10 years.


I have to say something here...you either don't know what the hell you are talking about, or more likely, painted into a corner, are pulling crap out of your bottom end in a desperate attempt to keep from losing face.

What the CBO said is very clear...even FOX NEWS got it and didn't try to spin it.

President Barack Obama's health care overhaul will reduce rather than increase the nation's huge federal deficits over the next decade, Congress' nonpartisan budget scorekeepers said Tuesday, supporting Obama's contention in a major election-year dispute with Republicans.

Republicans have insisted that "Obamacare" will actually raise deficits -- by "trillions," according to presidential candidate Mitt Romney. But that's not so, the Congressional Budget Office said.

The CBO gave no updated estimate for deficit reductions from the law, approved by Congress and signed by Obama in 2010. But it did estimate that Republican legislation to repeal the overhaul -- passed recently by the House -- would itself increase the deficit by $109 billion from 2013 to 2022.

"Repealing the (health care law) will lead to an increase in budget deficits over the coming decade, though a smaller one than previously reported," budget office director Douglas Elmendorf said in a letter to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio.

Do a search and you'll find lots of articles on that CBO report and what it actually said. Get up to speed before you start making bat shit crazy statements that don't resemble the truth and later turn to dishonesty to disentangle yourself from the mess you made.

Only a complete moron would think that ObamaCare actually helps shrink government.

Desperation setting in...he's changing the subject now from deficits to size of government.
