Okay, but with a few guidelines here:
If it fails, we the American Taxpayers do not bail out the State, it’s up to Californians to do that;
If they go bankrupt like Ill. is doing, we the American Taxpayers do not bail them out, it’s up to the people who live in those States to do that...
Do it, California! The middle-class flight will increase to a flood, and your super-rich, super-poor, and illegal alien populations that remain can go under.
That’s what should have happened from Day One.
Let each State figure out their own health care policy.
Vermont tried to go single payer but they couldn’t because of Federal policies!
.... Let California become our single-payer test case...
However, after it quickly fails, it will remain in place in perpetuity as another very burdensome tax drain without Lunatic liberals ever admitting it failed. In fact, they will call it a success. Just like Obamacare.
What happens to out-of-state visitors who need medical help?
Just one of many questions I have, but that will be ignored.
Answer probably is to tax them for every dime they are carrying. Maybe assess them when they enter the state at the ag inspection stations, like posting a bond. Return unused portion when leaving the state, minus handling charge.
See, I could be a demoncrat.
More taxes will drive many from the state. The socialist radicals that are running our state, just raised our gasoline taxes (again, again, again) to pay for their socialist mecca retirement fund (always been unfunded basically) and now they talk about this??? They have no money, and do have much debt.
But not at federal taxpayer expense. California can do as it pleases with California State Tax money. Your state, your vote, your ledge, your problem. Words mean things and votes count.
No, thank you.
California can not pay for it’s own single payer health care program. That’s not how it works. It’s all about leeching the entire country. They would never isolate themselves to their own burden
It’s a stupid idea. California will divert ALL it’s funds to it - they already know it will cost more than their entire budget. Where do you think the money to run the state will come from?
Let’s not!
California going bankrupt could take down the entire economy.
I really wish Vermont would have been the guinea pig.
We could have easily absorbed that.
let California be a separate nation....
