So apparently de Blasio wants to provide his own version of Medicare for all for citizens of NYC at a projected cost of $100M annually for the 600,000 residents who don't have insurance.  Think about the math here folks so you understand the economic illiteracy of Democrats.  $100,000,000 divided by 600,000 equals $166.67 per participant per year.  Yep, that's right, either de Blasio actually thinks he can provide health care to New Yorkers for $167 per year or he is outright lying about what it will actually cost.  Either way I suspect he will be in for a very rude wakeup call as will the taxpayers of the city.  And unlike the Feds, he can't print money to make good on this program.

However this eventually works out, you can expect a continued exodus of taxpayers from the city and if he actually does implement it there may be a rush to the door once they see city tax rates from the already stout 8.875% to probably, say 20% or more which may not even be enough?  And remember, under the current Fed tax rules, only $10K of that can be deducted from Federal taxes.  But, in order to be consistent and intellectually honest about my support of the concept of Federalism, I am all for him moving ahead.  Once that disaster becomes reality maybe people will finally understand what Medicare for all will really cost......and it ain't $167 per year....more like $167 per day.

Enough said.  I saw this today on CNBC and they asked the fool for details.  He said more later.  You simply can’t make this stuff up.  No one would believe you.

You seem to have forgotten the way its work for dems. The bigger failure it is the better for them because then they simply demand more money because it works fine, we just don't have enough money. The Republicans just want to throw granny and babies off a cliff.

Well when clinics begin to close and taxpayers out migrate to Florida guess it will become apparent.  Lord helps us all.

And sadly when they move to Florida they will vote for all the same stupidity.  It's why I call liberals parasites.  They invade the host body, destroy it and then move onto another host.  They literally screw up everything they touch.
