In NY pols look to impose higher taxes, universal healthcare, as the economy suffers under Covid restrictions
(From The New York Post)
…some lawmakers mean to boost spending — on schools, “environmental justice,” to expand broadband, for an undocumented-immigrants fund. They also think this is the year for single-payer health care in New York — an idea so unaffordably expensive that every state that has considered it has had to pull the plug.
Nor will they stop with taxing just the rich: Indeed, they’re eyeing a range of other new levies and fees, too — on methane emissions, carbon use, telecom companies and more. Rest assured, those new costs will hit low-, middle- and high-income workers, either directly or via higher prices from companies obliged to cover their new hit.
