Saving Obamacare instead
No surprise but infuriating none the less. Paul Ryan is exactly the GOPe fraud we knew he was. Like Obama, he doesn’t care that you know it. What are you gonna do about it? Sue him?
The GOP, a tossup: Where will Ryan and the rest of the establishment reside in Dante’s inferno, the 8th (Fraud) or the 9th (Treachery) circle of hell?

Cold Anger Report: Speaker Paul Ryan EXPANDING Taxpayer Bailout For ObamaCare Insurance Providers….
Via Tax Analysts: (bold emphasis ours)
Negotiators are not close to a deal but are looking seriously at the framework discussed by Senate Finance Committee member Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., when the latter served as Ways and Means chair, tax lobbyists and House staffers said. The two lawmakers were unable to agree on the level of funding for highway programs, and negotiations stalled.
According to tax lobbyists and House staffers, the tentative deal now under consideration is being developed by all congressional leaders and the White House. The extenders are likely to be attached to the omnibus budget legislation expected to pass Congress by December 11.
The plan under consideration would also delay the medical device tax in exchange for additional funding for ACA risk corridors, which is a program that allows federal payments to insurers to offset high losses in the initial years of the ACA. (read more)
Rather than expose the ACA (Obamacare) for the financial fraud it is Ryan is cooperating in propping it up at every turn. That of course reduces the political momentum to repeal and replace it.
