...and California is asking the Government of the United States of America and taxpayers of America to help them fix their dam...
TO HELL WITH THAT!!!
And when it all goes wrong they will be asking for a bailout from the rest of the country.
Vermont tried this and quietly abandoned it.
This would have been the rest of the country if Hillary won.
Feelings, nothing more than feelings...
California is broke!
At least when it flopped badly it would end the idea nationally.
Fast track to insolvency.
Where in the HELL are they going to get the money!! The state is BROKE!!! These IDIOTS are BEGGING BUSINESSES to leave the state!!! With the 15.00 minimum wage, and NOW they WILL expect businesses to fund this where the HELL else are they going to get the money!!! Illegals SEND ALL THEIR MONEY home to Mexico, and NOW we will give them healthcare!!!
Wow, replace all private insurance for single payer? Sounds like I’m getting UHC whether I want it or not. Will I have to pay for it? You know the illegals won’t.
Let California go with single payer if they want - but they MUST pay for it themselves.
That is the beauty of our Federal system. They can attempt things, with the approval of their own citizens, that are faster and more easily implemented than the Federal Government ever can.
The California DemonRat overlords refuse to abandon cultivation of their vast group of future DemonRat voters (illegal aliens).
In all seriousness, if this were not so serious it would be funny.
Already been tried in Vermont. Miserable failure:
If Kalifornia uses state dollars, they’re perfectly within their rights to do this. Not one penny of Federal funds, however.
When they leave the U.S., how do they think this stuff will paid for? Have they given it the least little bit of thought at all?
If any one of the individual states wants to go to a “single-payer” form of insurance coverage, then that should be of no concern regarding Obamacare. After all, Massachusetts had introduced their own form of state-run medical insurance prior to the introduction of Obamacare. But it would be expected that California would be able to bear the financial costs they will incur by introduction of this system, and not call upon the Federal Government to bail them out when the inevitable cost overruns begin pelting them in the Gluteus Maximus.
You know, the same place where they will be getting bitten.
The nice thing about states choosing to provide universal health care is that if you don’t like it, you can move to another state - as CA is discovering about a lot of things. Imagine how much their population would shrink if they didn’t have any illegals.
Won’t the congressmen exclude themselves from the plan? Won’t that bother the all-powerful teachers’ unions? Silicon valley moguls? etc. etc. Premiums go up, care goes down. Can’t wait!
I think they may have to redirect funds they were going to use to repair the Oroville water control issue, along with other crumbling infrastructure, to fund the new healthcare system that no one else in the US was able to provide for their own residents, let alone all illegal aliens.
The Federal Government should pull all funds from California for Medicare if this happens. To hand out my tax contribution for freeloaders and illegals better not happen. This communists rotten State is beyond redemption as a State under the Constitution.
