3 Reasons Obamacare Spending Has Exploded Under Democrats

The increased subsidies Democrats passed in 2021-2022 should be allowed to expire at the end of next year rather than be made permanent.

Lest anyone think the gusher of federal spending ended with the Covid pandemic, a new analysis from the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) demonstrates otherwise. The analysis shows the true motivation behind the supposedly “temporary” programs the Biden administration and Democrats enacted in 2021-2022: to expand the welfare state even further.

As a result of these efforts, CBO believes that spending on Obamacare subsidies will more than double over the coming decade. It’s the latest data point showing why the increased subsidies Democrats passed in 2021-2022 should be allowed to expire at the end of next year rather than be made permanent, as Democrats prefer.
