Here is a short clip from the Right Scoop via Hot Air of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi gloating over the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) scoring of the impact of Obamacare on the deficit and a response from Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan on the shell game the Democrats are playing:
Ryan discusses how Medicare cuts and Social Security tax increases are double counted. “…you can manipulate legislation to get the CBO to give you a good-looking number, but that does not manipulate reality and the reality is this bill doesn’t add up. It is massive deficits, massive debt. So the Speaker can write a bill that is full of smoke and mirrors and the CBO can give you the answer you want, but that’s not what happens in the real world.”
However, Obamacare may be the first actual bill supported by the administration that will create jobs – 15,000 jobs for IRS agents!
They are needed to enforce the mandate for you to buy government-approved health insurance and pay your premiums every month. Congressman Ryan: “Just imagine this, they have to police on a monthly basis whether or not you are doing your job and fulfilling your mandate that the government says you have to buy the health insurance that Katherine Sibelius defines for you, literally. One person will be the regulator of all health insurance in America and Katherine Sibelius will be telling you what you must buy for yourself and the IRS will be policing that.”
