  Her employer stopped her insurance thanks to Obamacare and reduced her to part time so she makes 30 000 now
  
  Less 4 grand more in taxes and it's a big win
  
  
  26,000

  But she saved $2000 a year with Obamacare.
  
  Her wage would rise to $65k? Sure,gif

  Take again the case of a secretary earning $50,000 in wage and currently contributing $15,000 through her employer to an insurance company. With universal health insurance, her wage would rise to $65,000 – her full labor compensation. With an income tax of 6% – which, if applied to a base large enough, would be enough to fund universal health insurance – she would have to pay about $4,000 more in tax. But the net gain would be enormous: $11,000. Instead of taking home $50,000, the secretary would take home $61,000.

  They take your shit and give it to people that have never done shit.
  
  Welfare works the same as well as most other government free shit programs. HTH

  Some seriously flawed arguments in the original post starting with the employer taking their healthcare compensation they no longer have to pay and just giving it to the employee...that won't happen in a normal world but in a world where employers are getting the living shit taxed out of them, there's close to ZERO chance employees see a raise. In fact, many will ultimately get laid off. But it'll be fine because all these laid off people will have free healthcare and will need the government for more services.
  
  As I read it, I thought - this guy has to be a troll.
  
  Even if the government goes socialist, companies that still choose to do business will still be capitalist in nature. They will still be out to make as much profit as possible...Warren probably has a shitty plan to fix that, too.
  
  Cue the death spiral for our country. Seriously. Her policies would be absolutely catastrophic.
  
  Never mind the fact that China and other countries would start pushing us around again further weakening our economy.
  
  Here's a few philosophical questions for you liberals:
  1) Military - Is it cheaper to have the world scared of you or is it cheaper to get your shit kicked in all around the world? What do you think?
  2) Do you really trust the government to run health care? I mean seriously - just think about any interaction you have with a government agency.
