🧵1/3 While we’re on the topic of the ACA “Obamacare” and the current tax subsidies and COVID credits.
I would like to remind you of what people were told about the ACA. Every word this man spoke was a lie.
Chart in comments for full understanding of cost to taxpayers.

🧵2/3 This chart is invaluable for understanding the taxpayer funds subsidizing health insurance companies.
The most recent CBO and Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) analysis estimates that permanently enacting the expanded premium tax credit (PTC) structure-making the ARPA/IRA "COVID credits" (zero-premium plans for <150% FPL, no cliff for >400% FPL, lower contribution caps) -**would **increase federal deficits by $349.8 billion.
Remember:
🩵The light blue part of the graph is the Covid Credits (what the democrats are fighting for - including for people over the 400% federal poverty line).
💙The dark blue is the portion that has always been paid by the taxpayers.
Why are the democrats fighting so hard for government subsidies to the corporations they purport to despise?
The people that support the Democrat party literally cheered for Luigi. Now, those same people are fighting for more taxpayer dollars to subsidize health insurance companies?
In the post above, Obama said premiums wouldn’t go up, but it appears as though corporations, knowing the government will pay the premiums, continue to raise premiums.
The Democrats are relying on the American public to not understand these facts…and they are willing to keep food from people that need it in order to get more taxpayer dollars to the health insurance companies.
How much money have the democrats been given by the healthcare industry since Obama took office?
Let’s take a look…

🧵3/3 The health insurance companies are pouring money into campaigns and lobbying for extension of the Covid credits.
AHIP, the trade group for health insurers, already spent more during the first nine months of 2025 — $13.1 million — than it did all of last year. The lobbying push from insurance companies and hospitals has focused on the extension of Affordable Care Act subsidies, which expire at the end of this year and are the center of the government shutdown.
Who are the top recipients of that money?
Chuck Schumer and Bernie Sanders.
