The graph shows how much ObamaCare costs, not surpluses. The different lines indicate the different cost estimates and how they've been going down over the years as new data comes in, but they still represent cost. I guess I should have known that you would not get the meaning of budgetary effect. Here are the words that come before that chart. Page 20 of the report. Reduction of deficit means what shit head? Now fuck off...I have wasted enough time with you. Al Other Effects on Revenues and Outlays. CBO and JCT now anticipate that the ACA’s insurance coverage provisions will have other effects on revenues and outlays that will, on net, reduce the deficit by $54 billion less than was anticipated previously for the 2015–2024 period. The current projection is for a reduction in the deficit of $152 billion, rather than $206 billion, for that decade. The downward revision in those savings stems principally from the projected increase in the number of active workers and their dependents with employment-based health insurance. An employer’s decision not to offer insurance to active employees tends to result in higher taxable compensation in the form of wages and salaries. Conversely, an increase in employment-based health insurance tends to reduce taxable compensation. Therefore, the increase in the number of active workers and their dependents with employment-based coverage implies lower federal revenues than would otherwise be the case.
