Default Arnie doesn't want single-payor ...

...but it looks like he's going to get it anyway. Nothing would please me more than the elimination of private medical insurance plans.

(08-29) 04:00 PDT Sacramento -- The Democratic-controlled Legislature is on the verge of sending Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger a bill that would create a state-run universal health care system, testing him on an issue that voters rate as one of their top concerns in this election year.

On a largely party-line 43-30 vote, the Assembly approved a bill by state Sen. Sheila Kuehl, D-Santa Monica, that would eliminate private medical insurance plans and establish a statewide health insurance system that would provide coverage to all Californians. The state Senate has already approved the plan once and is expected this week to approve changes that the Assembly made to the bill. -San Francisco Chronicle

In keeping with the Liberal Democratic Agenda,,,I recommend that Abortion should not only remain Legal, but be made retroactive on all individuals that think someone else should be made to pay for them, and wipe their collective asses for them...

All in favor say Aye!

So, regardless, are you suggesting that citizens should not have a choice in WHO they want to use for medical insurance coverage??

Hey I am all for California setting up a "STATE RUN" and operated health care plan....that way the responsibility for picking up the tab for the Illegals...would rest solely on the shoulders on the California based taxpayer....not the other 49 states and taxpayer funding of the federal government.....like is happening at this current time......look for state taxes to go up...up....up....good for them, as they finally get just what they deserve....as they drive themselves into bankruptcy.....BD

If you have a problem with illegal immigration, make it legal. Then you won't have a problem.

Just don't give 'em citizenship.
