Wrong. Nevada has a sales tax - they don't have a state income tax. My idea of paradise... a low cost of living.

But maybe if California goes bankrupt, the rest of the country will understand.

California already is, and the country learned nothing.

I'm SURE they've thought about the effect of lost revenues to the insurance industry. Job losses, etc........ Besides the obvious reasons not to do this, what about the lost tax revenue from the insurance companies to the state? These idiots are probably selling short on insurance stocks as we speak.
As liberal as Arnold is on social issues, this is one bill he won't support.

Its a budget buster and more importantly, its a jobs killer. And from a libertarian point of view, it puts government into the business of making decisions about your health.

Hillary did wonders for health care costs didn't she ? Ever since the witch fooled around with health care we have had double digit increases in medical costs every year. Maybe that's the way she planned it. This country is not setup like Europe, socialized health care will destroy us, especially with all the big companies leaving the US. The unemployment rate will skyrocket above 20%, we will implode.

I hope so. I'm one of them. TeeHee.

This California Raisin was on "Dobie Gillis" over forty-five years ago, so by this time she should be concerning herself with Universal Casket Care.

Good idea! Why should every pauper be buried nameless in a potters' field? We demand Universal Mortuary Service TM today!

Well, at least the experiment is on the state level, not federal. When Cali goes down the $hitter over this, perhaps folks in the rest of the U.S. will take notice.

There was a time when CA set the trends for the rest of the country. Now anything out of the Golden State is treated with disdain and universal laughter.

Well .. she has to be on fantasy island because there is no reality connected with her plan.

Coolyfornia and America might as well be on different planets.

I also think it is appalling that ordinary citizens are saddled with the burden of Automobile Insurance. If California can afford to insure everybody's body, surely they attach a rider that includes their cars.

And don't forget we need Universal Entertainment Insurance complete with cost caps on what can be spent to make movies and television shows (salary caps, etc.), and of course, movie tickets should not be over $1.00 apiece with the gov picking up 50%.
