Florida Democrat and gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum is a big fan of socialist initiatives supported by the likes of Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, including the so-called “Medicare for All” plan. However, Gillum attempted to put voters minds at ease about the massive amount of money needed to fund the plan:
Gillum says he would raise taxes on corporations, not Floridians, to fund Medicare for all https://t.co/oQbgvbIX5H pic.twitter.com/vKyEhgcuhw

LOL! Nice try:
And then corporations will pass the burden on to Floridian's with price hikes, layoffs & raising rates.

The massive pile of corporate money will magically fund socialist utopia with absolutely no downside for the average working American! *Eye roll*
Yes, it's called a "soft tax increase." And ultimately the Floridians will pay it. https://t.co/2Kujl54ejO

Corporate taxes are indirect taxes on consumers. Would raise the costs of goods and services. https://t.co/FCFplUrViZ

Economics 101: Corporations don’t pay taxes. Sure, they write the check, but the actual tax is paid for by increasing the cost of goods and services. Therefore “The People” pay the tax. Florida – VOTE NO on Gillum https://t.co/iYeS71TI8a

Such taxes:
1) would be passed down to Floridians,
2) put some corporations out of business, and
3) send other corporations out of state https://t.co/zPWTBFKRch

Phew. Thank God, since no Floridians own or work for corporations.
As Reagan said “The problem with libs is not that they’re ignorant. It’s that so much of what they know just ain’t so.” https://t.co/9oQuXtacbe
