YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"Apparently still unfazed by the Supreme Court's ruling, Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., announced today that she introduced legislation into the new Congress to repeal the Affordable Health Care Act.

According to a report by CBS News in July, the then-33 unsuccessful attempts by House Republicans to repeal the law had used up around 80 hours of time in Congress, or two full work weeks, at a cost of around $48 million."*

Congress has been eager to get some new, impactful bills passed, including Michelle Bachman's latest bid to repeal Obamacare...which would of course be vetoed by President Obama. Cenk Uygur breaks down how this pointlessness wastes your money.
