I’d like to hear how these idiots plan to pay for 0-care. My guess, tax on the rich, with special exemptions for Hollywood.

As a whole, California is not mentally equipped to do anything but endorse Obamacare. The Socialists have done ahellofa job of indoctrination out there.

“The federal government pays 100 percent of the expansion starting in 2014 for the first few years, and by 2020 pays 90 percent of it”

Which begs the question.. WHEN ARE THE REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS GOING TO SUE OBAMA FOR HIS ILLEGAL, UNILATERALLY DICTATED WAIVERS? Shouldn’t Congress have authority over waivers?

That’s the plan.. California will the first 100% government-operated State. Then it spreads from there and eventually connects to D.C.

California, the garbage pile of crap heads that have destroyed everything that the State was good for. Industry, leaving. Citizens, mass exoduses. Mariachi music, the new State song, etc.

Your question is an even better one.. CAN A PRESIDENT UNILATERALLY DETERMINE WHO PAYS A TAX AND WHO DOESN’T? There is NO WAY this is legal, but of course Teflon Obama will escape scrutiny.

They aren’t paying for it.

Us freepers who live in California will pay for it.

The rest are dems or illegals and they get a pass.

California is a lost cause anyway, trust me, I live here, I know its a done deal, Ronald Reagan wouldn’t win this state again if he were alive. Its been overrun by Communists and Illegals. Of course they will love “Free” Govt Run health care

Yes, they are dumber than dirt, which tells you everything you need to know about the majority of Californians — who elected them.
