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.

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.
Don’t forget $50.00 an hour minimum wage!! I mean “living wage”.

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.
That’s if any ER (ED) is still operating
