The Washington Examiner reported yesterday that according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), Obamacare will cost $1.76 trillion over the next ten years. Originally, the program was projected to cost $940 billion.

The article reports:

Today, the CBO released new projections from 2013 extending through 2022, and the results are as critics expected: the ten-year cost of the law’s core provisions to expand health insurance coverage has now ballooned to $1.76 trillion. That’s because we now have estimates for Obamacare’s first nine years of full implementation, rather than the mere six when it was signed into law. Only next year will we get a true ten-year cost estimate, if the law isn’t overturned by the Supreme Court or repealed by then. Given that in 2022, the last year available, the gross cost of the coverage expansions are $265 billion, we’re likely looking at about $2 trillion over the first decade, or more than double what Obama advertised.

It’s time to repeal this awful law before it totally bankrupts us!
