Insane Promises

The Dumocrat politicians running for president (and they are numerous) are trying hard to out-socialize each other while swearing they are NOT socialists. You decide. Is “Medicare for All” not socialism? Socialism requires that there be a certain number of producers of new wealth working to provide the money they use to carry out their promises. Does not “Medicare for all” also depend on this? Today, Medicare only for us “old folks” is going broke. It is in danger of having to delve into its “savings” to pay what it has to pay now, and is slated to go completely broke (no reserves to draw on) within 20 years. So how are they going to finance the massive increase in Medicare COSTS if they ever manage to implement this farce? Then we have others promising not only to pay the tuition for current and future college students, but to “forgive” previous tuition debt. There’s yet another big hit on government finances. Then there is the “minimum salary” they’re promising to give people, whether they work, or not. Which means that many of the “producers of new wealth” will figure out that they are paying the bills for others and stop working, to join the ranks of the moochers, themselves. They just cannot find the money to pay for these impossible, insane promises, and they have to know that, even though they stoutly deny it. (Just common sense)
