This is the result of generational dummies in basic math and a love of socialism.

These liberal idiots now control many cities, states and the house in congress.

This is just the first of many attacks on America by idiots at the lower political levels.

That’s EXACTLY what Vermont discovered when they tried to do this.

Providing “Medicare for All” essentially DOUBLES your state budget.

Couldn’t crunch the numbers so they gave up. I suspect the same will happen here.

It will take Uncle Sam and his ability to endlessly print money to pull off such a thing.

The producers can take an aspirin and get a few bandaids to compensate.

Pulling this totalitarian sh1t is not “consent of the governed.”

These commies need to be hanging from lamp posts.

This was always end game for Obamacare. It was not meant to be sustainable so they would have an argument to move to single payer socialized medicine.

NYS counties are going broke cost sharing for Medicaid.

Likely this is a lot of hot air. Something to pacify the masses, attract more takers.

NYS doesn’t have the money, and will never get it from Uncle Sugar.

...to overhaul state health care by creating a "Medicare for all" program that would raise taxes by $139 billion a year... single-payer plan... coverage to the roughly 1 million uninsured... including undocumented immigrants... eliminate all co-pays and deductibles.
Thanks EinNYC.
