The prospects of a government-run health care system in California dimmed Friday when the leader of the state Assembly announced he doesn't plan to take up the single-payer bill this year.
Speaker Anthony Rendon called the bill "woefully incomplete."
"Even senators who voted for SB 562 noted there are potentially fatal flaws in the bill," the Los Angeles-area Democrat said in a statement.
The bill, which has passed the Senate, lays out a plan for a government-run health system in California, but it doesn't include a way to pay for it. Rendon said the bill also doesn't adequately address delivery of care and cost.

Kalifornicate has run out of others people’s money......
What, they didn’t pass it to find out whats in it? Gee, it worked so well with Obamacare/s
potentially fatal flaws in the bill...and that is there is not enough money in the world to provide “free” health care to everyone.
Why are they talking about paying for it? I thought government health care was free! < /s >
Abandoned a basic human right?
How to pay for it? What part of “free” did they not understand?
It would be easy to pay for—issue state bonds to pay for health care and order Calpers to buy all of them.
Call them Healthy California Bonds
This has the added bonus of high fees for all their Wall Street buddies.
Geez—these legislators are really lousy at scams! :-)

C’mon! This is Kalifornia! Home of the deep pocket taxpayer! Just double gasoline prices through taxes and tax the rich *anyone making more than $100,000 a year) at 90%!!!
Problem solved!
California still on the high speed fail system.
Will there be weeping and wailing with massive demonstrations and riots from the entitled butthurt snowflakes?
Can’t pay for it. They spent all they had on consultant Eric Holder.
If it can’t happen in California one would think it would be dead.....one would think!!!
A lot of the deep pocket taxpayers are here in Texas now.
Even Kommiefornia shows that single payer is a disaster in waiting.
Won’t work there, won’t work anywhere
Wake up, Millennials. You’re being duped by the Obama Sanders hilLIAR Warren types.
Shoot.
I was kinda looking forward to watching that three ring C.F. unravel just before the 2020 election.

I always get a kick out of the far left states like California and Vermont when they overreach on free pony legislation like “free” single payer healthcare. Once they determine there are not enough productive folks and rich folks to pay for it and their lefty supporters will have to pay for it, they let out a big collective never mind. If there is one thing lefties hate more than Trump, it is having feed their free pony from their own pocket.
They obviously hate poor and sick people.
