1/ Confused about what the House voted on today? You're not alone. I hope you'll find this explanation (in the following tweets) helpful.
-
-
10/ Democrats want their voters to think it's all about stopping Republicans from repealing Obamacare.
-
11/ Reporters are fixated on the sexy angle, which is the misleading angle that most of the politicians are talking about: Obamacare.
-
12/ So, my no vote does not mean I oppose repealing Obamacare (sorry, Democrats); that's not what today's vote was really about.
-
13/ My no vote was about standing up for limited govt and fighting for the next generation. It was about stopping a never-balanced budget.
-
14/ We can't afford more spending and more debt, regardless of whether it's demanded by a Democratic president or Republican president. ###

#2) then the "Reconcilliation" is when the numbers need to fit into the budget to make it balance. $9-$10 TRILLION over 10 yrs
-
#5) to cut stuff. So they will cut ACA (Obamacare) without putting those words in the budget or Reconcilliation. No need to SAY

Reconcilliation is the same way ACA was passed initially. Basically, budget is made up, the numbers get broadly apportioned,

It cannot be the most massive budget ever if it spends less than Obama did in his same time period. IT IS A CUT... FOR NOW.
