That's Why Democrats Have Been Carrying On That Repealing ObamaCare INCREASES The Debt

Following up on my previous blog:

So, if we buy the nonsense that ObamaCare does result in debt reduction (because it takes $200 Billion more from us than the health care changes cost), repealing it does indeed increase the debt by the amount no longer available to use on debt reduction.

Hmmmmm, Democrats passed a bill that intentionally takes more taxes from us than needed to pay for it which makes it true for them to say that repealing it increases the debt.

What they want you to think:
  1. Obama's health care reforms 'save' us money that can be used to pay down the debt,
  2. They will ACTUALLY use that 'extra' $200 Billion to pay down the debt (HA!) and
  3. Since the reforms 'save' us $200 Billion, repealing them adds to the debt.
The TRUTH, in case you're interested in it:
  1. Obama's health care reforms don't save money, they COST $500+ Billion (that we can't afford),
  2. The taxes to pay for them cost taxpayers $700 Billion, $200 Billion more than needed,
  3. It's the repealing of $200 Billion more in taxes than the reforms cost that increases the debt but even that's not the truth because
  4. History proves they WOULD NOT use the 'extra' $200 Billion in tax revenues to pay down the debt. Their claim that repealing ObamaCare would increase the debt $200 Billion is a bald-faced lie and is completely laughable(!) because they would NOT use the bill's tax 'surplus' to pay down the debt in the first place ... they WOULD SPEND IT! DUH!
Using their logic it would be smart of them to not only include enough taxes in every bill to pay for its costs but to ADD IN a whole bunch MORE in taxes than needed so they can say the bill 'saves' money (even though they're stealing more money from taxpayers than the bill needs). In fact, that logic says that they screwed up ObamaCare by not taking even more money from us in taxes. That bill should have included, say, $1 Trillion more in taxes than paying for the reforms required. That way they could say the bill produced $1 TRILLION of debt reduction (which they would NOT have spent on debt reduction, right?). And then they could now say that repealing ObamaCare will increase the debt by $1 TRILLION! Who would vote for the repeal then? Only someone with an ounce of common sense!
