Do you have a link to how the CBO judged Obamacare? How did that work out?
The CBO is awesome. They can see the future. That is why they told us then that Obamacare would fall apart and insurers would run away before the whole plan imploded. Give me that link please.
I searched the site, I couldn't find it. Curious. I would really like to see the initial CBO report.

I didn't realize you are not smart. Took 1 minute to find. As you may not know, there were amendments to the bill and each has a cbo analysis. Have at it hoss.

Two caveats regarding those estimates bear emphasis:
Many individuals and families would experience changes in premiums that
differed from the changes in average premiums in their insurance market. As
explained below, some provisions of the legislation would tend to decrease
the premiums paid by all insurance enrollees, while other provisions would
tend to increase the premiums paid by less healthy enrollees or would tend to
increase the premiums paid by enrollees in some states relative to enrollees
in other states. As a result, some individuals and families within each market
would see reductions in premiums that would be larger or smaller than the
estimated average reductions, and some people would see increases.

Little anecdote, wife and I had dinner with my Trump voting parents. We discussed the new AHCA legislation resulting in laughter from my father (very smart guy). He said the obvious in that it won't pass the Senate without massive change or a complete rewrite, but he said the solution to healthcare is obvious....single payer/medicare. Passing anything that causes people to go back to being uninsured and losing the pre-existing condition piece is political suicide.
Snipe, please read about healthcare pre-1973 and how it was provided in the US. Richard Nixon/Edgar Kaiser are absolutely the a-holes responsible for leading us to this situation.

And giant ears said I'd have the same insurance as him my premium would go down $2500 and I'd keep my doctor. All of which I do not have so guess who's the giant jerkoff first - 19 trillion dollar man with more people on food stamps and in poverty than ever before.
