Correction: that is the total net cost of running obamacare for the next decade.

In other words, instead of losing 1.207 trillion; we lose 350 billion.

here's a list of stuff that we lose if obamacare is gone for handy reference:

so there are some things which are probably not great to lose. tbh i think spending time to reform it would've been better, hopefully they phase it out after a decent period of time instead of just cutting it off; maybe in that time there will be a replacement with all the good parts of obamacare (but i seriously doubt it)
