Tax Foundation Analysis Of Sanders Plan Only Shows Downside

Tax Foundation Analysis Of Sanders Plan Only Shows Downside

The problem with the Tax Foundation analysis is that it does not account for the fact that all those businesses and individuals will not be paying for health insurance anymore As I understand the Tax Foundation’s model it is almost as if the over $5 trillion that is raised from the payroll and household tax and the over $3 trillion that is raised because there won’t be deductions and exclusions for health care expenditures is taken from the economy and flushed down the toilet.  According to the Tax Foundation taxpayers are behind by $3 trillion because they are not getting health insurance deductions anymore.  What is not included in the analysis is the gain from not paying health insurance anymore.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
