Full Title............................California Goes One Step Beyond ObamaCare, Proposes Single-Payer Healthcare System to Include Illegal Aliens..............................California Democrats made a surprise move late Friday to foil President Trump’s promise to repeal ObamaCare—by introducing a stand-alone, single-payer healthcare system in California.

The Mercury News reported that two California lawmakers Friday introduced legislation to replace private insurance with a government-run health care system covering all 38 million Californians—including its undocumented residents.

“We’ve reached this pivotal moment,” Sen. Ricardo Lara (D-Bell Gardens), told the Mercury News in an interview Friday, “and I thought to myself: `Look, now more than ever is the time to talk about universal health care.’”

The article went on to report that the proposal dubbed the ‘Healthy California Act’, introduced by Lara and former Assembly Speaker, now State Senator Toni Atkins, (D-San Diego) — was submitted just before the deadline for new legislation—and for such a sweeping proposal, it remarkably short on specifics.

This will be the fatal blow to Mexifornia. It will be delightful to watch the liberal jugheads legislate their own demise.
The only reason that I can see for them going this route is that they know it will fail and look to the US Taxpayer to bail them out. Remember President Ford's answer to New York? President, (boy do I love typing that) President Trump will not be as kind in his wording of the refusal.

Well .. it’s looking more and more likely that I will be trying to move .. can’t stay here .. and I have family in a better location.

I love San Diego .. but I can see the writing on the wall .. Gov Brown was already here several times, trying to get our Mayor to implement the EXTREME “Global Warming” garbage. If that happens, San Diego will cease to be the garden spot that it is currently.
