#8  won't take 10 years to fail

Vermont's single payer system passed the legislature in 2011 and by 2014 the State declared it a failure.

yes, that's right --- VERMONT

#7  That's the ultimate goal of O-care from the beginning. It's impossible to believe that it would succeed. They planned for failure so the only out would be single payer

#6  It shouldn't surprise anyone the lengths people will go to avoid O-care.

#5  That's good news for Vets in CO -- they won't have to suffer under the VA. Or will they? Let's have a two tier single payer system. Wait, where are all the taxpayers going?

Hm.

Maybe all the details haven't been worked out yet. Pass me the bong, will ya?

#4  Fortunately it won't be New Mexico, not enough money and resources to steal. That's helped by their brethren Greenies who won't allow fracking in the state (but the Texans just across the border by meters are drilling and generating revenue). Economics of the Left is defined by their 'magic money tree' fantasy universe.

#3  So the Laficornia expats who fled to Colorado to escape the high taxes will now vote "yes" on this measure.

In a few years to escape the taxes they'll move to .. where? Let me know because I don't want to be in the same state as these folks.

#1  $25 billion, paid for with very high tax rates on businesses and people. Almost guaranteed to go past the original $25 billion price tag and punch a hole so massive in the state budget that you could pass Pluto through it.

If passed expect in 10 years to see the state so far in the red it is thinking bankruptcy, businesses fled and people moving away as fast as they can.
