Karl Rove: Who’s picking up the tab for democratic socialist’s free health care plans?
Fox News ^ | June 23, 2026

Posted on 06/23/2026 8:03:06 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

Former Bush White House chief of staff Karl Rove discusses the rise of new far-left Democratic socialists within the Democratic Party on ‘America Reports.’

Far-left socialist candidates, championed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, are challenging established Democrats in New York's primaries, pushing an extreme agenda. Karl Rove breaks down candidates' controversial positions, including calls to abolish ICE, advocate for a 32-hour work week, and implement national wealth taxes. The primaries will test the DSA's growing influence.

Indeed. Many of today’s problems can be traced back to that idiot, George W. Bush. And Rove was the “genius” behind Bush.

It is a mystery to me why Fox continues to push Rove. The guy is repulsive.

It should not be a mystery. After all, the late Roger Ailes announced that Fox News was undergoing a so-called “course correction” almost fifteen years ago.

Democratic socialists advocate for “Medicare for All,” a single-payer healthcare system financed by the federal government through broad tax contributions based on an individual’s ability to pay, rather than through out-of-pocket premiums, copayments, or deductibles.

The system relies on multiple revenue streams to replace
the money currently paid to private insurance companies:

Progressive Income Taxes: Increases in standard income tax rates, with the heaviest burden falling on high-income earners.

Wealth Taxes & Corporate Levies: Additional proposed funding from annual taxes on the net worth of top earners and higher corporate taxes.

Payroll Taxes: Moderate, dedicated premiums or taxes shared between employers and employees to replace what is currently paid for private employer-sponsored health insurance.

Federal Savings: The elimination of current wasteful administrative costs, billing overhead, and profit margins associated with private insurance.

Democratic Socialists of America assert that while taxes will increase, working families will save thousands of dollars annually by no longer paying out-of-pocket for private health insurance premiums and deductibles.


Explore the proposed economic structure
on the DSA Medicare for All Campaign page.

I would suggest everyone do what I am doing and every time I buy something online that cost more than a couple of bucks I do all I can to find out the source first. While much comes from China there are still companies, mostly retailers, who are based in New York. I try to avoid both but I would buy something from China before I would buy anything that would benefit New York in any way. The sooner New York pays for their stupidity the better.
