We’re pushing toward the same thing here in Wisconsin. It’s called HealthyWisconsin.
The proponents say WI is spending $18B on health care. They’ve passed a bill for a universal socialist health care plan called Healthy Wisconsin with a budget of $15B. Well looky here. We’re going to save $3B. Every employee in the state will be required to pay 4.5 percent of their wages to the plan and each employer will pay 10 percent.
The $15B health plan will be run by a bunch of amateurs. What if costs go over budget? I guess we’ll have to turn people away like expectant mothers. And seniors can just go away and die.
What the hell, Wisconsin is as scenic as Ireland.
I need to make a correction to this post. Four out of ten women in labor in Great Britain are turned away from a maternity hospital due to personnel shortages.
The following story on LRC also has some other dubious examples of state run healthcare. Healthcare for all does not mean heralthcare for all.
