re: #837 avanti

Yes, the fixes added to the bill increased the cost, but it was not a “lie”, or even a surprise since the CBO scored the bill. According to the CBO, the cost will be recovered is taxes and savings unlike the unfunded GOP prescription funding bill.

Sorry, but but CBO estimate was based solely on the original bill - it did not include the “fixes” that are now ratcheting up the cost.

And given that the bill’s author’s were fully aware of this subterfuge, it was a lie.

You’ve been snookered.
