Doctors would flee the state in droves......................
That all, of course, doesn't mean any particular non elite person gets to see a doctor when he is ill or receives medicine or treatment for any particular condition but, in healthcare, he is equal to everyone else and all have "access" in that everyone has an equal right to fill out forms.
Saw a guy in front of the .99 cents store in Chino Hills CA today getting signatures to impeach the local State Rep for voting to raise the gas tax .12 cents. Much more to come even in libertard CA if the madness continues. See Gray Davis.
Except for the plastic surgeons who work for cash.
How quickly can they get it in place I wonder? I’m in CA and about to retire, hope they don’t upset my situ.
Silicon valley is where programming jobs are...otherwise I would not let the door hit my backside on my way out of this crazy state.
I own a small business in Orange County, Ca. If this plan goes through I can say with certainty that my business will not survive. Most businesses in my industry will also go away. The same will happen in most industries. Unemployment will skyrocket. Commercial real estate will plummet along with residential real estate. This will be an unforced error of unparalleled proportions. The golden goose within the golden state will be dead. We will have many new residents from around the world to add to our destitute population, however.
To think that a small handful of democRAT politicians including our geriatric governor should be pushing this program is absurd. Its only purpose is to appease the crazies of our state and to buy votes for re-election forever and forever.
If California voters want a single payer system let them have it. When the costs are orders of magnitude greater than the original projections and the revenue from new taxes fall below those originally projected it will serve as a cautionary example for other states that propose these utopian schemes.
.
California has voted down “single payer” several times.
I think that now that they have 10 million+ fake votes to employ, they think it might pass.
Jerry added a bunch of illegals in with Motor Voter recently.
If I were a Californian, I would vote for it as I was packing my bags.
.
Correct.
A plastic card doesn’t equal health!
.
I oversee the preparation of sales tax returns at work. We file in CA. LA county just raised their sales tax a half point. Many counties are up to 10%.
I wonder what the total tax burden is for a resident of CA?
.
The flaw in your bag packing theory is that a huge percentage have once packed their bags to get in here, and there is no way they want to go back to what they left.
And they are the ones that are sinking us with their leftist brainstorms.
.
It never seems to work that way. The cautionary example part.
Years ago Rush observed, “Being Liberal means never having to say you are sorry.” If California goes ahead with the plan and disaster ensues, the Democrat politicians will never take responsibility. They will simply blame Trump and the Republicans, and their base and the MSM will agree.
They'll just keep making you vote until they get the "right" result.
“From the Sacramento Bee: “It would cost $400 billion [per year] to remake California’s health insurance marketplace and create a publicly funded universal heath care system…” Do you know what the California state budget is per year? It’s $180 billion. The state budget of California is $180 billion. The Democrats there are serious in proposing that California go single payer.
My wife and I heard this data from a SF Bay Area TV.
As a nurse, she is great at figuring appropriate doses of meds for patients of any weight, age and other factors.
This stuff makes her head spin, but she said, “Whoa, are they using new math here?”
I suggested that she forget the billion $’s and use $400 and $180 for a year re costs and what the state income is per year.
She immediately got the right answer. She said. “To pay for this Health Care for California for a year, they can’t spend a dime on anything else and need to borrow or get funding from DC for more than double our yearly budget if this happens.
Then being a nurse, she said that countries would be sending boat loads and plane loads of theif sick people to California for free health care.
I told her not to forget the people in the rest of America who will be flocking to California for free medical care in California.
Then, I told her that in 2015, U.S. health care spending increased 5.8 percent to reach $3.2 trillion, or $9,990 per person.
At that point, she said that she didn’t want any more math lessons.
.
Yep, that’s what they did with fluoridated water!
.
Tax Hollywood 50% and go for it CA. The rest of us will watch your “progress.”
