Donor State

by Steve MacDonald

New Hampshire is a donor state. Ask anyone in the political class and they will tell you. New Hampshire pays more in federal taxes than it gets back.

These same ‘experts’ are the ones convinced that Medicaid Expansion is a great deal. The Feds will pick up the tab at 100% for the states that sign on through 2016. After that, they promise to pay 95% of New Hampshire’s bill.

Every state that signs on will need more and more federal money, including New Hampshire.

What are the feds going to use to pay for all that new spending?

More donor state money?

Enjoy your “free” Medicaid Expansion. And be sure to thank Jeb Bradley and company for wanting to expand it past 2016.
