I want every damn republican that pulled this stunt to pay the billions of dollars they racked up.

I won't hold my breath.

Billions of dollars for nothing.

Imagine the schools and road and bridges this could have fixed.

stunt? If it were the other way around the Republicans would have been repeating how much it was costing every time they could find a microphone. The Republicans like to say how uncertainty caused by the ACA is bad for the economy but they are the ones that have created the uncertainty with the ACA and the budget.
