[…] On Friday, State Senator Ricardo Lara (D-Bell Gardens) introduced legislation that would institute a single-payer system in California. The system would be similar to the health care system in Canada. But the single-payer system would cost California taxpayers an estimated $40 billion during the first year alone, and no one has been able to explain how that money would be raised. MORE

I think it’s actually closer to $160 billion in the first year, minimum.
Maybe California could threaten to send all the Mexicans back to Mexico, unless Mexico coughs up $160 billion a year?
Gonna be hard to do without Trump approved government money.
Maybe the illegals will pay for it.
….and maybe monkeys will fly outa my butt.
I have lived in the SF Bay Area most of my life. Leaving for Utah is 10, 9, 8….
Brad will like this plan. Now he will get to pay everyone’s healthcare.
MULTIPLY x 10 any government projections. They LOW BALL the figures all the time to get people to support it. Look at Obamacare, “Will not cost you 1 dime more!” –TRUE! It cost people many thousands of dimes more! My rates went up 55% after I got kicked off my old plan, or rather, I was FORCED to change plans b/c I didn’t want to pay $1100 a month to keep it.
We’ll just tap bullet-train fares to pay for it…!!
State of Jefferson.
Let Mexico provide their health care.
Oh…………..this should end well.
How is this being paid for, really?
And how are they going to replace all the doctors and specialists who will flee to other states as a result?
that’s California for yoa, ALWAYS Doubling Down On STUPID
