The Real Cost of Socialism

Under President Trump, America has maintained the lowest unemployment rate in nearly 50 years, there are more jobs opportunities than there are people to fill them, wages are steadily rising, and American optimism has returned.

Capitalism and the free-market system have allowed for a better life for all Americans with wage increases, better job opportunities, and record low unemployment, yet the embrace of socialism by leftist politicians and many in the media only continues to amplify.

Americans would shoulder the cost of this $32 trillion plan, which would lead to a $17,000 decrease in household income annually after taxes and health care costs.

President Trump envisions health care reform as a fight to provide quality, affordable care to Americans while protecting those with pre-existing conditions.

He's already taken many steps to get there; he's lowered the cost of prescription drugs for the first time in 46 years, eliminated the individual mandate, expanded more affordable health insurance options for middle-class Americans and small businesses, and he's vowed to ensure Americans get the best quality of care.

Socialism is not about equal opportunity and lifting Americans out of poverty, it is about the liberal elites in Washington having the power to oversee everything from our methods of transportation and energy to our education and access to health care.

A massive government takeover would destroy these opportunities and eliminate American freedoms.
