Rubio let it slip:
“Many argue that you can’t cut taxes because it will drive up the deficit. But we have to do two things. We have to generate economic growth which generates revenue, while reducing spending. That will mean instituting structural changes to Social Security and Medicare for the future,” the senator said.
“We don’t need to reduce benefits on current retirees or even near-term retirees, but we can make changes for future generations such as mine, and do so in a way that people can prepare for, so the changes will barely be felt,” Rubio said.
This still requires reconciliation with the version that already passed in the House of Reps. which will probably take awhile because they're horribly inconsistent. Reconciliation isn't supposed to be used for any bill that raises the deficit (-$1.4T over ten years, according to the CBO), but rules don't matter any more. There are significant differences and perhaps some of the dumbest shit will get pulled. But the GOP is very motivated to declare a legislative victory at any cost. .So nobody should be holding their breath that sanity will prevail and this middle of the night abortion of a bill will fail to ultimately be signed into law.
