CA is the perfect test facility.
Have at it.

The first question I have is how they intend to square Single Payer with the fact that they're essentially a sanctuary state.I thought they already tried single payer in Vermont - didn't work. What are they going to do different in Cali? Typical Dems, let's do whatever we want and worry about how to pay for it later. Only way CA gets bailed out is if the Dems take back control of the WH and both Houses of congress.CA is the perfect test facility. Have at it.
If this actually ends up passing just sit back and enjoy the chaos.
A sweeping measure that would establish government-run universal healthcare in California cleared its first legislative hurdle Wednesday as scores of supporters crammed into the Capitol to advocate for a single-payer system.
The Senate Health Committee approved the measure on a 5-2 vote after a nearly three-hour hearing, but Democrats and Republicans alike signaled unease with the major question still unanswered in the legislation: how the program would be paid for.
The bill, SB 562, would establish a publicly run healthcare plan that would cover everyone living in California, including those without legal immigration status. The proposal would drastically reduce the role of insurance companies: The state would pay for all medical expenses, including inpatient, outpatient, emergency services, dental, vision, mental health and nursing home care.
The measure says the program would be funded by "broad-based revenue," but does not specify where that money would come from.

I totally agree! But when you have situations like this:Works great in countries with homogeneous populations with few parasites....this is going to fail miserably in California.
How much more can they handle?

We here in CA are our own country so it's past time to leave red state Amuhreca behind to enjoy their 'health-care-by-emergency-room' boondoggle.
Single-payer will simplify the entire industry and normalize care and payment. And again for anyone that doesn't like California either leave or don't stop by. Freedom of choice is still in place, exercise it. Well, red staters rarely exercise but I digress.

It'll be MUCH cheaper than the current system. Americans pay over 30% of every health care dollar to Administration. Single payer countries pay less than 10% and the doctor's receptionist does all his billing. No 3rd party billing companies, no insurance company claims departments.

Why don't you ask Vermont how that worked out? Ever hear of Green Mountain Care? Probably not, because it never got off the ground. The legislature thought they were going to show us all and passed a universal health care bill in 2011, without addressing the funding aspect, of course. When they actually began to figure out how they were going to pay for it and came to the conclusion that they would need to implement an 11% payroll tax on the populace, at a minimum, they scrapped the program.
If the legislature in the most liberal state in the country was too fearful to enact that on their residents how do you think the people of California are going to react to the same proposal when you're already one of the highest taxed states in the country? Bare in mind, Vermont is also a largely homogeneous population. They didn't have to fund million of people from the third world with little to no education who rely on the state for the most basic of needs.

And when they finally go bankrupt they'll look to the rest of the country to bail them out. I say let them drown in their own debt and leave the rest of us out of it.
