Colorado Caught Breaking Federal Law in Audit of Medicaid Spending… Government Healthcare FAILING!

Colorado has just been caught violating Federal Law in a new audit.

Federal Medicaid dollars have been used by the State Government to pay for medical coverage for illegal immigrants.

Over $1.5 million in US taxpayer money has been spent in “just the last few months,” in Colorado alone.

And the same day this was reported, in a seeming coincidence, it was reported that Governor Jared Polis admitted that Medicaid spending in Colorado was unsustainable.

Government-provided, taxpayer-funded healthcare has been a disaster for Colorado.

The reliance on government for medical care has created an unstable system in which costs have skyrocketed, treatment is rationed, and the market has been manipulated.

Of course, government advocates will clamor for more spending and more government control over our lives.

The reality of government’s failures must be talked about and become the dominant narrative in the political discussion about Medicaid, Obamacare or any other scheme.

In this video, Brandon explores the recent audit exposing Colorado, and looks back at news articles that show the problems facing the medical system in our state.
