CBO initially scored Obamacare at $900 billion. Their report isn't worth a bucket of warm spit. Amnesty will break State and federal budgets.

It would cut it by a couple of percentage points, but nothing would really change otherwise.
A deficit is a deficit.

The CBO just like all of the other agencies is tooting the horn for the Marxist in chief and his willing compadres on both sides of the aisle. Believe them....NOT!

They’re really desperate. People at CBO must have been threatened somehow to produce a joke like this.

8 MILLION??? BWAAAAAAAAHAAHAAA!!!
Since they ONLY undercounted the number who will get amnesty by AT LEAST 100% - their estimate on "deficit reduction" of amnesty must be SO ACCURATE!
To: Oldeconomybuyer
ROTFL! Somebody has been hitting the happy smoke again. ANALysts are some wacky people. There is NO WAY IN HELL that “immigration reform” (Opening the gates to the U.S. Treasury to foreign nationals) is going to cut the deficit. No way.

Would they get retroactive Social Security benefits? Think about it. Many of the foreigners working illegally in this country are doing so by using fraudulent ID stolen from dead people and babies. If they get blanket amnesty, would they still be able to use that fraudulent ID to claim benefits for a job that they stole?

...but those expenses would be more than offset by a rise in the labor force, increasing revenues. What revenues is that? The taxes on beer and smokes? These low skilled, low wage types will all qualify for welfare and the Earned Income Tax Credit. In other words, the taxman will be paying THEM! Geez. This isn't rocket science.
