    He shouldn't have signed them if he didn't approve. He should have rammed through changes like he did on the ACA. So he can ram things through, but the only things he saw fit to ram through were things that made the deficit worse.

    “The Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted in 2010 will significantly worsen the federal government's fiscal position relative to previous law. Over the years 2012–21, the ACA is expected to add at least $340 billion and as much as $530 billion to federal deficits while increasing federal spending by more than $1.15 trillion over..."

    You've attempted to blame structural spending on republicans and absolve democrats.

    Contrary to what you say, here is the truth.

    Structural spending on health care and pensions created by democrats far outweighs defense.

    Obamacare has cost less than a trillion dollars so far.Trump said it is now repealed so thats around a trillion for Obamacare,800 billion for the stimulus and less than a billion for Sylondra.Keep going,you have a long way to go to the 9 trillion of debt you claim is from Obama.

    So Medicare and social security have dedicated taxes and neither add to the deficit. The affordable care act reduced the deficit. Try again.

    Obamacare has dedicated taxes and cost savings. It reduced the structural deficit.

    I know.Even using his best right wing estimates Obamacare doesn't come close to 9 trillion in added debt so I just let it go so he can try to explain Obama creating 9 trillion in debt.

    The Libprogs are just trying to play you FHL. They know full well that the government categorizes certain things as contributing to the deficit and others do not get counted. For example, last year's deficit was 594 billion yet the debt climbed 1.3 trillion. Make no mistake ACA contributed heavily to the debt increase.--They are playing a shell-word game with you.
