Apparently, nobody asked the Canadians how that's all working out for them...

"This is a moral debate as much as a political debate," Newsom said.These people are so incredibly stupid. Businesses have been leaving SF in droves for years - going to Walnut Creek or the South Bay - and this will just increase the flight of actual tax-paying entities. There's no free lunch.

Watch the cost of healthcare in San Francisco skyrocket, the quality and availability plummet, and the number of small businesses in the area start to close.

See what happens when you put liberals in charge of things? Bad things, mad--bad things!

San Francisco doesn't want any military presence in town, and apparently they don't want any capitalistic businesses there, either.

This thing sounds more like Fidel Castro's "barefoot doctor" plan.

Let see what happens after the migration of Business and Doctors from San Francisco...Maybe Castro could send some of his Doctors to help out.

How soon will SF be out of business. Again the liberals have failed economics 101.
Another Federal government bailout?

Before the board vote, Newsom defended the proposal as a creative solution to the problem of securing decent health care for uninsured residents, noting that businesses would not be alone in defraying the costs. Of the $200 million, the city would provide $104 million and participants would contribute about $56 million.And this is good thinking, because the city gets its money from WHERE?

Notice that SF didn`t do anything to limit lawyers fees. Want to reduce health care cost, shoot a lawyer.

They have already chased a lot of businesses away with their "attack panhandler" laws. Now they will have to pay a very hungry, greedy, needy piper.
