The Big Ugly Death Bill will only increase the deficit 2.4 trillion dollars over 10 years.
Maybe multiply that number by 3.
I will bet my golf clubs that 7 trillion is closer than 2.4 trillion. Of course in 10 years I will be 87 years old and who knows what healthcare we will have? Maybe I better leave my clubs with my daughter for anyone who wants to bet.

especially after watching thune and Johnson blatantly lie about this sadistic bill. Johnson said we will benefit from it but forgot to add the billionaires will be the only f**king beneficiaries.

Earlier estimates had it double the 11 million.
I don't believe anything that comes from the government nothing at all from anyone in any part of it.
